Guillermin does (the best 9a in France?) Trip Tik Tonik

Victor Guillermin sent Trip tik tonik (9a) in Gorges du Loup, two months ago. "So nice! In the beginning, the route was wet, but after a big fight, I managed to pass through the wet crux, I fell on the easier part (8a+) at the end... A couple of weeks later, I came back and it was dry, but I fell again on the easier part... a couple of tries after I made my way up to the anchor! Very nice route, one of the best for the grade, even if it is soft if you are good at kneebar..."

This was the seventh 9a or 9a+ for the 19-year-old who headlines the video, โ€œbest 9a in France", and he might be right as all 15 who have star-rated it have given it five stars.

What are your winter plans?
I will keep pushing in Stoking the Fire (9b) in Santa Linya this winter... Right now, I am trying the route getting closer and closer! The goal is to do it as soon as possible!
