Barbara Zangerl On Estado Critico (9a)

Black Diamond Athlete Babsi Zangerl had a stellar trip to Siurana. While hanging at the famous El Pati sector, she onsighted her first 5.13d and then cranked two 8b+’s in one day, sending El mon de Sofia and Projeto Moro. But perhaps the coolest part of her trip is the fact that she finally booted up and tried her first 9a. A veteran of hard climbing from boulders to big walls, Babsi, believe it or not, has been saving the mythical 9a grade … until now.
