Loic (14) and Chris (42) Zehani do a 9a FA in Orgon
Loic Zehani has done his second 9a FA, La Lessiveuse in Orgon and it was repeated by his father Chris (42) who gives us the story.
"It was a great moment to send the route the same day. For me, there was a lot of try because I have no more this level and I was oblige to do many session in my style of climb, stamina with a lot of little moves.
For Loic, I think it was just a lap. The route is located just behind "canal +" sector. There is 12 short routes (8 to 12meters) between 7a to 8c. La Lessiveuse begin by Supersonique a powerfull 8c and cross on the left by following the border of the little cave. In total it's 48 moves but the difficulty is concentrated in the 30 first moves."
