Finally, after a good period of training during the quarantine, Evan<\/strong> has been able to reach the chain of it, becoming the first Canadian to climb a 9a+<\/strong>. About this send he says:<\/p>\n “I bolted Sacrifice in 2016 but it seemed impossible at the time. I showed it to Adam Ondra when he visited the area in 2018 and he was able to figure out a sequence and get the FA. I started really focusing on Sacrifice in 2019 and made really good progress eventually one hanging a few times. I trained hard all winter specifically for Sacrifice. Covid-19 changed my training plans but my wife and I were able to adapt with strength and endurance workouts at home doing body weight and weighted exercises as well as hangboard. It seemed to work out quite well as I felt stronger on the route this year compared to last year and I was able to take it down pretty quick this year once climbing was opened in Alberta.”<\/p>\n From 8a.nu<\/p>\n AP<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The canadian climbers has just repeated Sacrifice, the world famous route in Echo Canyon.
