Felipe Camargo repeats El Bon Combat (9b)
Brazilian Felipe Camargo has made the 3rd ascent of El Bon Combat at Cova de Ocell, Spain. The route was first climbed by Chris Sharma in 2015 and was repeated by Jakob Schubert in 2018.
This week's Friday Night Video takes us to Brazil in 2023 when Felipe Camargo travelled across the country with his brother, Bruno, hoping a leave a legacy of hard routes for future generations of climbers. Inspired by surf and skate films, the pair filmed five first ascents, including the first 9a+ in South America, Auto Retrato.
Comments
Spent a month at Serra Do Cipo last July. Unique formations on super solid limestone. Very friendly scene with climbers from all over S. America. Perfect weather in June and July. Highly recommended.
