Chan Chan Bastards 9a+/b: โThe Journey P1 into the unfortunately chipped top of Cafรฉ Colombia"
Pink Patatas 9a+: "The first part is a sit start boulder problem that checks in at around 8A+ (V12) and finishes on a good flake from which an 8c+ route starts. Climbing the boulder into the route adds up to about 9a+ I'd say. 50 moves in a roof make it very pumpy for sure ๐ ."
Patatas Pantera 9a: "I put my focus on a new cave found and bolted by Tom Bolger."
