Edu Marín's relationship with China obviously doesn’t only boil down to Valhalla, the most overhanging multi-pitch in the world located in the huge cave at Gétû. The 35-year-old Spanish climber has bolted and freed a myriad of other climbs across the country, including The Clinic at Shangfang in December 2019, which at 9a+ currently stands as the most difficult sport climb in China.
