Seb Bouin is on a mission to explore the history of climbing in France by visiting some of the legendary crags which set precedents for modern day climbers. On the first leg of his tour, Bouin joins Ben Moon and Antoine le Menestrel at Buoux; an important testing ground for 80s sport climbers. The crag is home to some of France's hardest climbs from the 80s and 90s and those who climb on its steep limestone walls have to be ready for its unforgiving pocketed style...

Les Main Salles is one of the most impressive routes I've ever seen. Great to see what that roof section is really like.

Alas, I don't know French very well, so the poor subtitles weren't much help. Still enjoyed this though 🙂
