Vintage Rock Tour, what an interesting and honourable concept! Sponsors, get that man a proper van :) !

[@wircoal]

The drone shot at 8:50 before the title name is awesome, props to the person who got that idea

[@SchaeferPhilipp]

Epic view of an epic crag!!

[@jonathangandy9271]

This crag just blew me away when I first climbed there in 1992, just perfection, I couldn't believe a cliff could be so perfect and in such a stunning location, brings back so many good memories. For me it is the best sport climbing cliff in the world by a long way.

[@leduj169]

Salut epictv et seb bouin, quand est ce que cest prévue les Eaux Claires ? Merci

[@Daniele.Rossini]

Does anyone know wich rooftop tent Seb uses at the beginning of this video? i want to searh the model but i can't see the brand in the video!

[@levihamilton779]

The vintage rock tour is so great. Anyone know the song starting at 3:53?

[@aidanjohnson7571]

Pretty sure the route at 7:30 two blue streaks to the right is Bibliographie. Didn't realize just how close it is to Biographie

[@compellingpeople]

Nice.

[@joelglick8491]

what song is that in the intro?

[@Del1Dub]

awesome vid, correct me if im wrong tho. wasnt actiondirect/hubble considered the first 9a ?

[@stephaneficara4501]

Hugh is the first french 9a ;). It's from 1993, so 2 years after AD.

[@Del1Dub]

@@stephaneficara4501 ah alright! thanks :D

[@grahambooth3991]

Yup, Hubble

[@Remi-B-Goode]

The King of the Gorges of Verdon ! Great real 7c+ in nature way up high on the rock edit: omg that 9a+

[@gigglysamentz2021]

C'est quoi le nom de la musique au debut? First track name?

[@SchaeferPhilipp]

Is there any sense in visiting Ceuse if your limit is 6c? I'd just love to go there as the nature and scenery seems breathtaking...

[@torwald5877]

Sure, the range of difficulty is from 5a to 9c ! The landscape is amazing, the quality of the rock is great, and you can see world class climbers trying their projects. This cliff is really a must go in a climber's life :) !

[@EKdlwoasred]

@@torwald5877what about for 4a climbers?

[@ThitoO]

J'ai bien hate de voir Fred dans un épisode. Aussi est-ce que tu vas essayer Akira ?

[@MrSeigneurdivinity]

Seb je t'aime

[@goldenzues3106]

If we're going to go meet fred rouhling maybe someone can try to repeat Akira?

[@duncanedelstein6553]

What are the climbing Shoes Seb is wearing I have never seen them before.

[@EpicTV]

Eb 🤘

[@edwardli131]

[@lucaghiardo1600]

Riprese un po' bruttine rispetto agli episodi precedenti ma narrazione super! Bellissimo il drone che "scopre" Demie Lune a 8:49

[@matenw.9530]

He is talking about the first 9a and the first 9a+ both being in france. What is with Action directe?

[@DiegoRaquiman]

the 9a he mentions is highly controversial, some people say fred never really send it. I think there is also something about chipped holds on the route, but that was normal at that time so i dont know.

[@sueedenjin]

first 9a in France, 1993

[@Wazoodles]

The way the dust settled it looks like Alex Huber actually climbed the first '15a' and other OG routes have been upgraded/downgraded/slash graded. And then you throw in the Akira controversy, Chilam Balam overgrade, Hubble actually being hard AF for 8c+, Liquid Ambar being upgraded, Estado Critico being '8c+' and few crazy low key kooks all over the world sending hard it muddys the water. The 'first' of every grade is less distinctive and accurate than we all like to think.

[@moonti6820]

it's the first french 9a (1993) action directe was climbed in 1991.

[@MisterBleau]

And what about Ben Moon’s Hubble??Probably, the really ever first....

[@flooo5071]

world's first 9a isn't action directe ?

[@paul-emilefrancois3731]

they meant first french 9a
