Vojta Trojan completes Mr Big (9a)

Vojta Trojan, with twelve 9a and beyond climbs under his belt, has ticked Mr. Big (9a) in Margalef. โ€So good! Thanks Tom for such an experience. About the grade I would say rather soft, but itโ€™s my style so I have no idea honestly. And honestly I donโ€™t care so much.. this climb is just amazing.โ€ (c) Vojta Ruta

Can you tell us more about the trip and the send of Mr. Big?
Iโ€™m so syked to be back here in Margalef. I almost forgot how much I like the climbing here! Weโ€™re very lucky with weather our whole stay here - climbing in decent conditions in the sun in Espadelles sector. Sometimes itโ€™s too warm, but it gives you the vacation vibes which is not too bad!

I tried Mr. Big like a side project and got very close to send it very fast, falling on the very last hard move just 3 moves below the anchor. That try I opened a split and had to wait a bit to heal it. In the end I sent the route with a tape, which is maybe the first one for me :D
