Iker Pou Sends New 5.15: Big Men

The nearly 40-year-old crusher from Spain has recently made the first ascent of Big Men 5.15a on Mallorca, Spain.

Known for his sends of some of the world’s highest and hardest routes, Pou’s new route Big Men was bolted in the ’90s by Carlos Raimundo.

Pou really started to hit the headlines in 2000 with his third ascent of Action Directe 5.14d. His first 5.15a was in 2010 when he sent Demencia Senil. Two years later, he was at it again with Ni de Bruixed. Both Margalef routes are confirmed 5.15as.
