Catxasa 9a+ by Seb Bouin
Seb Bouin reports on Insta that he has done Catxasa in Santa Linya calling it9a (+). "I used kneepads for the link, and I think the route is a bit easier with kneepads. It's maybe time to check seriously something harder. Let see how it's going."
Noteworthy is that none of the previous six repeaters of the Chris Sharma FA have said it is soft. On the other hand, it seems nobody used kneepads. (c) Victor Alvarez Rodriguez
In the last 12 months, Seb has now done 14 routes 9a to 9b+ which has only been beaten by Adam Ondra.
