Maรซl Musson does Deep Spot (9a+)

Maรซl Musson, who last year sent six 9aโ€™s, has made the first repeat of Mathieu Bouyoudโ€™s Deep Spot (9a+) in La Balme de Yenne. (c) Arthur Delicque

โ€Incredible! What a pleasure to finally send this mega route 11 years after Mathieu! This route is exceptionally impressive: 55โ€“60 meters long, including 30 meters of overhanging wall at 50ยฐ. Very few people have tried it, and yet it deserves to be climbed much more. I spent 9 sessions on this route, 6 of them just figuring out how to dial it in. Huge congratulations again to Mathieu for having had the vision back then.โ€
