Jorge Diaz-Rullo also proposes 9b for Sleeping Lion
Jorge diaz-rullo has logged Sleeping Lion (9b) in Siurana and confirmed Megos' 9b grade proposal. Jorge who is 169cm, says the dyno at the start was the hardest part for him. (c) Marco Zanone
On Instagram he comments. "Based on the whole process and my experience on these levels, if I had to choose a personal grade in relation to my body and my climbing style, I think it could be a 9b in the hard range, and I think it could become confirmed in this grade.
Regarding what I mentioned about height, although it may negatively affect me in some moves on this route due to being shorter than the average climbers tackling these difficulties, I am certain that in many cases, being who I am benefits me, such as when grabbing small holds or being more of an endurance climber. It doesnโt matter how you are or what challenges you face, just enjoy the game ."
