Thรฉo Charmasson does La Force Obscure (8C)
Thรฉo Charmasson has repeated Camillle Coudertโs La Force Obscure (8C) in Fontainebleau.
Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Itโs now the hardest problem in the Orsay roof since most famous line, ยซ La Force ยปbroke. Iโve been working on this boulder for a long time because I tried the 8B exit 6 years ago. Last year, I fell several times on the last move and injured my finger on it, but this year I finally got my revenge !
