Sever the Wicked Hand 9a by Gabriela Vrablikova

Gabriela Vrablikova, who 20 months ago had 8b as her personal best, has done her first 9a, Sever the Wicked Hand in Frankenjura. In between 2015 and 2017 she did 15 WCs and her best result was #26. "I have changed a coach and we started to work on everything! I have started to go rock climbing almost every weekend this year. I truly believe in strength of mind and I knew I could climb this route. It took 15 tough sessions though. I work four days a week. Training on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. One session each. Mostly boulder or some exercising, no time for lead climbing indoor. After training ice bathtub as often as I have the courage. It is the best and fastest regeneration for me. And yes, I still hate it! Weekends on rocks. I have holiday starting next weekend and I am super excited to finally go to Ratikon! I want to do sport multi-pitches, Silbergeier is my dream but I have no clue about it so far. Then Chiara (Hanke) recommended me another 9a here in Frankenjura and then something in Spain for sure. I am still growing, I will not set any limits to myself."
