Twist Again 9a FA by Quentin Chastagnier

Fanatic Climbing reports that Quentin Chastagnier has done his third 9a by the FA of Twist Again in Festival crag. He bolted it some five years ago and it is the neighbor to his first 9a he did one year ago. Interesting is that he has done several 8c+' before including some 9a's he has suggested personal downgrades off. (c) Simon Destombes "About the route, it’s something special, a 12 meters long regular 35/40° overhang with pinches, pockets, edges and original moves with a lot of drop knees (which explain the name of the route). It’s a mix of technical and powerful climbing for a fun effort. The start offers two 7B+ boulder problems until an undercling hole rest (around 8c to this point) before an 8A boulder problem and an easy final slab around 6a. Around 9a, and for sure one of the nicest extreme routes around!"
