F.A. Chris Sharma 2009/12/18, after about two years of work (few tries in the last year).

50 meters long, the route climbs the whole cave and tops it out.

The beginning of the route is a 20 meter curve of 7b+ climbing up to a no hands rest.
After the no hands rest there is a "sustained 9a to a 2 finger pocket, followed by an all out dyno" (a "jump" to a sloper), then some hard sections with rests and a final part in a roof.

The crux, where Chris felt down more than 20 times, is the big dyno (8a bloc) after the 9a: before the jump just some holds to shake, then a big rest and an 8a+/b route.

Audio description of the route directly from Chris, with photos from Pete O'Donovan.

9b photopos and videotopos

Do You want to become AUTHOR of 9b climbing "PHOTOPOS" and "VIDEOTOPOS"?

 

A 9b "PHOTOPO" regards one specific SECTOR (of routes or bouldering, dws lines).

An example:

 

You can put Your photopos in a 9b "paywall", a "destination page", inside the related topo group, requiring climbers their payment by credit card or paypal to access and read.

 

It's very easy to edit a 9b photopo:

1) upload a photo of a rock in a topo group discussion

2) drawn the lines

3) write names and grades (an example here)

 

As a 9b photopo author, You can:

- decide the price (you can ask a free donation too) of Your climbing photopos


- gain 95 % of total incomes.

 

Then, you can advertise here in this site and sell directly to climbers your photopos.

 

After having paid, climbers can see and SAVE your photopos (as all 9b site pages) on their own SMARTPHONES (iphones, android phones, ...)

At the same time climbers can print your photopo.

 

 

In a 9b paywall you can upload VIDEOS too, so your topo can be also a VIDEOTOPO.Of course, in 9b paywalls you can sell just your climbing videos.

 

 

Ning is leveraging PayPal to process payments, in order to collect payments in real-time with a fully-integrated payment system.

 

Ning will apply per transaction:

- PayPal’s standard 2.9% +

- $ 0.3 service Ning fee

 

Ning will be paying the PayPal service fee on 9b behalf.
