Rosen Ruev ticks Intermezzo XY gelöst (9a)
Can you tell us more about the ascent and your climbing background?
Last season I spent a couple probably 4 or 5 sessions and this season I need 6. It was mentally challenging because Sunday was the last day I could go to the route and my last chance to do it. I fell a couple of times from the last moves and my knee was hurting from the first heel hook.
So for my climbing background I have climbed for 15 years and until 2020 I was a route climber and climbed until 8b+ and after that I switched to bouldering. This season I made my first 8B+ boulder and this bouldery route was the perfect one for me. I have tried it last year but couldn't do the crux, but this year I was feeling stronger and wrapped up the season with it.
