Amandine Loury FAโ€™s 8c

Amandine Loury, with 16 routes 8c and beyond under her belt, has done the first ascent of Zen dans ta benz benz benz (8c) in Entrechaux. It was bolted by Jean Luc Jeunet and it took Amandine some seven days to complete.

Can you tell us more about the route?
Itโ€™s a short route very powerful in a 45 degrees overhang. The moves are very cool on tufas, crimp and two finger pocket. Itโ€™s a first ascent and I think it can be 8c. We will see with the other repetitions.

What is next?
The temperatures will be hot soon, so I donโ€™t know really. I have some 8b+/8c around home that I would like climbing. No really plans for the summer. It depends of the weather.
