Las Meninas R2 9a+ by Dani Fuertes (41)
The 42-year-old worked the extension three days more and actually the first time he passed the 9a anchor he sent it. During the last years Dani has been climbing harder than ever including doing Ali Hulk sit start extension total (9b).
How can you explain sending harder than ever being 40+?
Now, is more difficult for me to travel for climbing routes onsight and it’s more comfortable climbing hard projects close to home. I think it is because of this, that I have done my hardest routes being 40+.
