Ascents in Les Diamants having Beta

No quite one of the best 7as in the world, but so worth it. Exposed position, spaced bolts, long, some physical moves and a technical slab crux. Great and intimidating climb

Magnifique également, du même acabit que sa voisine!

Magique, rien à dire, ligne parfaite! Même pas vraiment patinée.

Ligne incroyable avec 2 pas de blocs, un au départ et un autre énervé en dessous du relai. Impossible de passer en fin de séance !

Ligne improbable avec des mouvs magnifiques et un réta spicy en guise de finish! Côté 7a (cotation buoux ^^)

La dalle finale peut vraiment faire la différence

Moins connue que "Les diamants" mais aussi belle

#2go 2nd go Bourrinage final sur rigoles glissantes où j'ai été craché dans le vide! La fatigue se fait sentir Tant pis pour qui ne se prend pas de repos

Heart breaker! Defeated on the Onsight after all the hard climbing by encountering a wall of black moss on this "rarely climbed classic". Just a single fall. Fought tooth and nail up this technical blank-masterpiece, skipping bolts and having a huge fall (just cleared a ledge and a roof as I whipped), and was devestated to fall after slipping on the moss with it "in the bag". Could be classic if it was cleaner.

2nd shot. Utterly nails, sustained and demanding for every one of its 35 metres... but bloody oath it is stunning! Surely you earn hard 25 for this effort, but no, this is Buoux... 7a it is. 3 distinct and tough cruxes (the final slab crux is diabolical), but you could fall off almost any move if you're attention wavers. Froth froth.

With 167cm I was just big enough to to the long move!

Thank you Daniel for leading this all time classic

Punchy nails boulder start was satisfying to work out and then send. Upon seeing the filthy dirty slab with a close to ground fall runout, I decided it best to play it safe and lower to the ground.
