La Reina Mora 9a (8c+) by Luca Bana

Luca Bana started 2018 as a teenager with a personal best of 8c and now he has already done a couple 8c+' and La Reino Mora 9a (8c+) in Siurana. It was put up by Ramon Julian Puigblanque as an 8c but lately most have thought it is 9a. (c) Colette McInerney - I spent some days to figure out all the moves and try to link together the main sections. Then, i started to do 'real' attempts and after three good tries falling off the same crux at 2/3 of the route, i managed to clip the chain! Soooo happy. The ascent of means a lot for me: the line itself is the most logical of the wall and for sure one of the best in Siurana. It has been a very nice process working on it, moreover it's my first route of the grade, so it represents a good step forward and gives me great motivation to climb harder stuffs!
