Alizee Dufraisse completes Ikarus (8B)

Alizee Dufraisse has ticked Ikarus (8B) in Sustenpass. This was the second 8B in 2024 for the 37-year-old who previously also has done three 9a routes.

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Well, I'm working on the extension [Highlander (8B+)] that goes to the left, which is my main project this season. Still super motivated to try to make the ascent of this one haha. The wall of โ€œTraumlandโ€ suits me pretty well, long boulders with a lot of tricks. It's also pretty rewarding as you can see improvement in resistance that shows progression during the process.

What is next?
Back to route climbing ๐Ÿค“๐ŸŒŸ I am very motivated to get back on some projects I have left in Rodellar and Siurana!
