Very incredible moment for Angela Eiter that after a winning past in competitions world and her first 8b boulder problem resolved this summer in Rocklands, now is a "9a woman climber" whit the ascent of Hades in G\u00f6tterwandl and now we wait only news for mountains where Angy want to dedicate herself on hard multipitches. So we take some minutes to always kind Angela to have some informations more on this ascent and her life in this period.
\nTell me something about the route Hades. How sort of climb is it?
\nThe characteristic of Hades lies on its power endurance without a resting point. This route demands a quite technical and resistant climbing on crimpy holds and possess two significant hard parts, that cause the main problems for me.
\n
\nDid you try others 9a before?
\nYes, I have tried three other 9a routes and considering the regional distance Hades was the closest. But never in my whole life had I thought that I can climb it, because Hades has such hard and three too big moves for me. Luckily, I found my indiviual solution to resolve these parts.
\nWhat’s the main problem for a woman on a 9a route respet a man in general?
\nAccording to me climbing is just partly a gender-related sport. I think the main problems are rooted in individual style, body measurements and individual preferences. For instance, my small body size prevent me from climbing some routes, whereas it can be an advantage for other ones.
\n9a: another target resolve for you or a new beginning?
\nThe 9a is of course a new barrier I have breaken now. However, this doesn’t stop me from staying motivated in future.
\nDo you have in mind another route of this grade?
\nPrimary, I want to climb many different routes regardless the grade. Then, it is quite likely that I am \u00a0try again one 9a I have already checked out this year.
\n
\nThe summer was very rainy and the winter will come soon: what’s your program\u00a0for the next months?
\nMy next trip goes to Greece\/Leonidio for two weeks in November. I am excited to get to know this almost fresh climbing spot.
\n
\nAnd your work as instructor is always ok? The "students" look at you as an example of course!! What do you feel in this role?
\nI want my kids to learn important qualities not only for rock and competition climbing but also for their all day life. This should help them be successful in exactly that thing that really makes them happy.
