Rollito Sharma extension 8c by Geila Macia (14)
"This is an amazing route, with a lot of resistance. It has good rests but at the end, there is a very intense long section. During the attempt, it was very stressful because I and another boy started climbing at the same time. He went in by another route but we both have the same anchor. I decided to rest in a good jug to wait for him to make his attempt before. He fell just before the quickdraw we shared and then I went for it. I’m happy because it doesn’t take me so many tries. Now I’m ready to try something harder."
