Edu Marin Beasts His Way Through A Mammoth 8c Roof Climb, Panaroma, Ep. 2

The route Panaroma (8c) in the Italian Dolomites has been a longstanding dream for Spanish climber Edu Marin. The line features easy but poorly protected climbing on its early pitches with runout sections between some extremely doubtful peg placements. The real meat of the route arrives in its upper reaches however, when a daunting triple roof section blocks the climber s path to the summit. With his father and climbing partner Francisco shouting encouragement from the belay, Edu manages to pull off an astounding lead through this daunting terrain leaving only easy, (if rather crumbly), ground to the summit.
