Otra súper vía de Primo, no se que tiene la “Apocalypto” que me encanta este largo!!! 50 metrazos de vía!!! Increíble la F.A. De Jonatan y su valiente propuesta, en su día mucho más dura de probar… hoy al poder probar el segundo largo por diferentes vías, se siente un poco más fácil, independientemente de todo, es una línea increíble!!!!

Another super route from Primo, I don't know what it is about “Apocalypto” that I love this length!!! 50 meters of track!!! The F.A. is incredible. From Jonatan and his brave proposal, in its day much harder to try... today, being able to try the second pitch in different ways, it feels a little easier, regardless of everything, it is an incredible line!!!!
