Pornographie 9a by Hugo Parmentier

Hugo Parmentier, who started 2020 by doing his first 9b, has done Pornographie 9a in Cรฉรผse. (c) Bluegilles

"The route had been bolted this year by a local and Alex Megos did the first ascent in July. I tried it a few times during my trip in August, something like 4/5 tries. Not really seriously as I was trying other routes. This time I dedicated myself only to this one for three days in a row (two times a day), falling to the last move. After a rest day, I could send it. Pretty intense, pumpy, comp-ish style on 15-20m, With a cool dynamic move at the end. Alex mentioned that it could be 8c+ with better beta. Maybe. For sure not the hardest but I do think this route has to be "approved" as it's really resistant."

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
