In the summer of 2010, Iker and Eneko Pou decided to visit legends. Travelling the Alps in their camper van, they met the godfathers that changed climbing forever.
Walking on the footsteps of Manolo, Alex Huber and Beat Kammerlander, they repeated some of the most iconic routes in the history of big-wall climbing: itineraries that show the way to the new generations.

Nicolas Favresse continues to forage new lines in Kalymnos. Fresh from his spate of new big walls in Pakistan's Charakusa Valley, the Belgian travelled to the Greek island to free Inshallah 8c/8c+. The new route is a powerful roof traverse through the first cave in the North Cape sector and is Favresse's second 8c+ on Kalymnos this year: in May he freed Gora gu ta gutarrak in the Odyseey sector, repeated by Steve McClure a month ago. Although not entirely sure about the grade (this awaits confirmation), Nicolas commented:  "I'm really happy about this new route. Not just for the difficulty, but because it's an incredible climb. The line, the moves, the location, the rock...it's one of the best sport climbs I have ever done."

Part two of this video guide deals with preparing the resin cartridges, installing the anchor and final touches. This process is for titanium bolts glued with RE-500 resin, the premiere sport climbing protection.
