The strong Wallisian Théo Chappex paid a visit to the bouldering area of Lindental and climbed numerous classics. His last coup: Merlin et la Bête (8b).
On January 9th, Théo's ticklist was “only” off Myrdin (8a) The Beast (8a) Ultimo Ratio (7c) and L'Enigme (7c). Merlin et la Bête threw him out five times on the last difficult move. Last Sunday, just before the annual climbing period of the bouldering area, then it still worked. Together with François Nicole and Marie Dorsaz, Théo gave everything again and managed to climb the 8b boulder.
