Jorge Diaz-Rullo flashes Pelotari (8c+)

Jorge Diaz-Rullo has flashed Pelotari (8c+) in Margalef. ”One of the best route in this grade in Margalef, power-endurance style. My hardest flash ever.” (c) Jaume Cebolla Vincent

The Spaniard, with four 9b+’ under his belt, has also done the FA of Larga vida al rey (8c+). ”So happy to have the honor to do the first ascent of this awesome project, I think could be around 8c+/9a in comparison with the other routes in the same wall. Name dedicated to the king Iker Pou who bolted the route.”

These ascents were his first difficult routes since sending a 9b in December, as he had been focused on his major project, Café Colombia. Altogether, he has now invested over 200 sessions in the climb over several years, achieving some promising high points last month.
