We talk to <a href="http://barbara-zangerl.at/about/" target="_blank">Barbara Zangerl</a> about her recent send of Magic Mushroom on El Cap with Jacopo Larcher — the first repeat of the route since it was freed by Tommy Caldwell and Justen Sjong. We also discuss how climbing culture is different in Europe, and how she found herself free climbing grade VI big walls after initially being focused exclusively on bouldering.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
