Seb Bouin's Epic Ascent Of Patanics, 9b, Rodellar

Seb Bouin’s Epic Ascent Of Patanics, 9b, Rodellar follows one of sport climbing’s most exciting talents as he takes on an infamous 60-metre steep link-up in Spain’s canyon paradise. On a packed October trip to Rodellar, Bouin goes for the first repeat of Patanics, a mega-route built from Pata Negra (8c), the crux of No Pain No Gain (9a+), and the finale of Botanics (8b+), demanding endurance, precision, and total commitment on relentlessly overhanging stone. What makes this short film so gripping is how clearly it captures the full reality behind a 9b: not just power and perfection, but problem-solving under pressure when conditions turn against you. Wet holds, fragile momentum, and an injury scare that sends Bouin to the ER raise the stakes, while the process of dialing in the right beta becomes its own battle. If you love seeing world-class climbing distilled into a focused burst of effort, resilience, and execution, this is eight minutes of pure inspiration.

The route comprises a 60 m steep link up of three routes; Pata Negra 8c, the crux of No pain no gain 9a+ and the end of Botanics 8b+. Seb had to battle wet conditions, as well as a piece of piece of metal falling in his eye, which had to be removed in ER before finally figuring out the best Beta to climb this beat of a route...
