Nika Potapova climbs Fuck the System and does her first 9a!
The Ukrainian 16 year old in the world of real big climbers
04 March 2019The Ukrainian climber Nika Potapova resolved Fuck the System and won her first 9a.
It was 2015 and the then 12-year-old Nika Potapova made the world talk about herself thanks to the absurd 2 minutes and 40 seconds of suspension at the Zlagboard, thus establishing a new world record. In April 2016 he won Strelovod, his first 8c, and now, after three years, this frightfully talented climber touches the legendary grade of the 9a! In fact, in Santa Linya, where in January he had also solved La Fabelita, Nika closed Fuck The System. This is the second female 9a of the year, after the one of Italian Laura Rogora of the first of January when she climbed Esclatamasters, and everything suggests that it will be a wonderful year for "pink" climbing.
