Chris Sharma has a bad habit of making the rest of us look like mere mortals. Th guy travels the globe to find the hardest routes and then he makes incredible move after incredible move until he scales the wall. In this video he’s in Margalef, Spain putting up a new route that he calls “Gancho Perfecto”. The route is rated as a 9a/5.14d making it extremely challenging. Enjoy and watch in awe.
Thanks to the All Climbing Blog for the heads up on this one.

Good god that makes Swanage look like a walk in the park. Cool climb Chris!
Chris is amazing. Seems like he’s always putting up new routes like this one, and he makes it look rather easy. The man defies gravity.
Chris is amazing, and I was wondering what kind of grip workouts he does.
