Chris Sharma invited me to spend a day in Oliana with him, working on his long-time project Le Blond, a potential 9c route (or even harder??). It's always a pleasure to spend some time with Chris: only great and positive vibes and such an inspiring climber. The next day we went to Chris' climbing gym in Barcelona and I set the two crux moves of Le Blond for him to practice. We also created a nice video that is live on his Youtube channel so go check it out: https://youtu.be/XUtyg52sMzw If you like this video, don't hesitate to show us your support by liking, sharing it, and subscribing to our channel, it means a lot. 🙏 Chris Sharma Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chris_sharma 🎥 Director, camera operator, and editor: Thibaud Herr https://www.instagram.com/thibaudherrfilms/ 📖 Chapters 00:00 LET'S GO! 00:41 MEETING WITH CHRIS SHARMA 03:04 DISCOVERING OLIANA 07:27 WARMING UP IN A 7C 08:36 WARMING UP FINGERS IN THE PROJECT 11:03 MICKA TRIES LE BLOND! 17:04 CHRIS SHARMA 1ST GO IN LE BLOND 21:32 CHRIS SHARMA TELLS THE STORY OF LE BLOND 23:41 8B ON-SIGHT ATTEMPT FOR MICKA 26:24 CLIMB NOT TO BE THE BEST IN THE WORLD 29:50 2ND GO IN LE BLOND

Short movie about the first ascent of Obsidian 8c+ at Scharfenstein, Germany. It took Stefan 3 years and 55+ sessions to complete that 17 years old project.

In this raw video of Chris Sharma sending Sleeping Lion 9b+, you can see the process and the effort that an athlete of this caliber puts in.

"This is the story of a world that no longer exists.  Once peddlers of twirling moments,  climbers have fallen silent. Deserting the rock, that arid theater of glory, they had turned to other scenes,  wealthy rivers among immense cities. Yet there still remained a group of traveling climbers, owners of nothing but rulers on their own because you never really perish if you live by stone. In their quest for meaning, they had chosen the heights of the Annot,  a thousand-year-old fortress whose cracks are not short of air,  because gas was their way of life,  and in the face of the absurd, they had chosen to fly." — Miguel Baudin Follow Seb & Miguel!

Hi climbers and fans, join this channel to get access to all of my Tips & Tricks videos and bonus content ⏩ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8eNyF9eYwgr_K-Nl4gSHWw/join La Pedriza (Spain) is an incredible crag in Spain featuring slab climbing, trad climbing and bouldering. ✊ It is a destination where I always wanted to go, but for some reason, I never really went. Circumstances and bad weather everywhere made me go there this week and it was a great decision. I was treated by great friction and great company of Jose Luis Palao Peinado and Ruben Diaz. ✌ I was able to ⚡ flash El Elegido, which is an incredible boulder graded 8B+/C. It is possibly the bouldering flash ascent that I value the most. Even though I probably can't take the slash grade. To finish the day, I was able to make FA of direct finish that Elemental that is probably still an 8B+, even though it might be a bit harder than El Elegido? But I can imagine some people might find it actually easier. Watch the new video and tell us in the comments if you like the new format!

C’est dans ce panneau déversant que se concentrent les voies dures de la région. Sauf que depuis 2-3 ans, on ne parle plus seulement de voies dures, mais de voies extrêmes, voire futuristes. La faute à Lucien Martinez et Fabrice Landry qui ont décidé de renouveler d’une manière étonnante la falaise de leur enfance. Supermanjoc collectionne désormais les voies en 9a, 9b, et probablement même plus… en attente de répétitions ou de premières ascensions. Merci à Arthur Delicque pour ses images dans Chicken Deluxe. Ainsi qu’à Petzl et Camp 4 Salle d’escalade pour leur participation. Bon visionnage ! --!! Le secteur est temporairement interdit de mars à juin pour cause de nidification !!--
