The ascent of Tom Bolger was the 23th from the first one by Chris Sharma in 2010 and so Era Vella is the most repeated 9a route in the world. Located in Margalef, it’s normal to think that can’t be a real 9a or to be a "soft" 9a but in reality all climbers confirm its difficult and only for Edu Marin can be considered a \u201csoft\u201d route for the grade.
\nThe story of Era Vella (the name of the house of Chris and Daila at that time) begame like said in 2010 when Sharma, during a warming up, climbed free the route. At the beginning, the name was confused in Era Bella and only after two years was clarified the real meaning.
\nImmediately, Ramonet and Dani Andrada for the second and third ascent, respectively in May and June of the same year. The next year others Europeans went to try the route. Enzo Oddo, David Firnanburg, Adam Ondra and Sebastien Bouin, whit American Ben Spannuth, realized the ascent in 2011.
\n2012 was the year of Sasha Di Giulian that realized the first female ascent but also a lot of other repetitions whit Edu Marin, Dani Fuertes, Paolo Barbero, Dani Moreno,Piotr Schab and Shoda Shinichi. Curiously, 5 to 7 were in April or May.
\nIn 2013 Silvio Reffo realized the first Italian ascent of the route and also Sachi Amma, Ethan Pringle, Michael Fuselier and Ruben Firnenburg added to their palmar\u00e8s this great performance.
\nSo, in 2014, first Domen Skofic and then Gerome Pouvreau and Tom Bolger, completed for the moment the story of Era Vella.
