French free! Matt almost led the crux pitch clean only to fall at the final bulge due to wet holds. I failed on the 6a/b pitch due to lack of commitment when pulling through the small roof.

Superb route but needed to pull on a couple of pegs on the crux pitch, which I led. Topped out over the balcony onto the viewing platform to hoardes of Japenese tourists with big cameras. Quite surreal!
