YES, I did it !!!!!

After my climbing trip in Briançonnais I decided to go back in Gorges du loup, hoping the weather conditions were better because I really wanted to retry my project: “Ultimate Sacrifice”, 8c+.

My main problem was the first boulder part, I had to hold a small pinch with my feet very far under a roof and to go to a pocket quite slippery and hold it without any foot while keeping the body balance.

The rock conditions were still really bad . The holds felt even wet but I felt much more stronger in the fingers, probably because of my climbing trip in Briançon where the routes are more on the fingers .

The morning I had an intuition and I change my method.  Before my last try, I felt so nervous because I knew that I could do it this time, so I had to calm down and stay focus, I passed the 12^th first boulder movements, screaming on each movement then I could calm down a little bit at the kneebar and after I climbed the rest of the route not too fast to assure all my movements to the top.

When I was at the last bolt, I saw the anchor, I wasn’t afraid to fall but I enjoyed each last movements because I knew that I was doing it !!!!

It was perfect!!!
