Spain’s Edu Marin did the second ascent of the original La Rambla 9a+ just one day before Chris Sharma.

La Rambla is an extension to Alex Huber's 8c+ testpiece. The route rejected several top-level climbers including Alex Huber, J-B Tribout, Marc LeMenestrel, Daniel Andrada, Christian Bindhammer, Yuji Hirayama, Dave Graham, Alex Chabot, and just 3 of them succeded:

1. Ramon Julian Puigblanque (8th of March 2003)
2. Edu Marin (30th of November 2006)
3. Chris Sharma (1st of December 2006)
