Hyper Finale 9a+ by Dylan Chuat
"You climb all the hard parts of Super Finale 9a and then exit to the right through two hard cruxes. First, some crimps which end with a risk-taking dyno into a jug. After that, you have another big boulder crux, on super small holds which some climbers have said is like an 8B boulder! I found a significantly different method but it is still no less than an 8A+ boulder." (c) Rémi Degenne
