Wild Publico 9a 2nd go by Peter Kuric
Could you tell us more about that 2nd go ascent?
First, I saw Vojta Trojan's video climbing the route (congrats to him too), and right away I knew it was my style. The next day I went to look at it and got really hyped. On Monday the forecast looked the best so I went to Espedeles to give it try. After my first try of the moves I was sure I could send this route during this trip. After half an hour I went for the second try. I did the first hard boulder and managed not to fall so I continued pumped and finished the route. This is my second 9a and I was surprised that I was able to send it on the second go. It is an amazing route and gives me amazing feelings for sure 🙂
