Bio

 
My name is Alberto Ginés López, I´m a Spanish professional climber, I was start to climb when I was 3 years old and I’ve been in love with it since the first time I touched a hold. I have always been a outdoor climber but in 2016 I started to compete in the European Youth Cups and nowadays I’m spending up to 90% of my time on climbing gyms. Also 2019 was a great comps season, I was able to qualify for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, during the last pre Olympic date in Toulouse.
For this year I’ll be focused in the World Cup and Olympics.
