French climber Alizée Dufraisse has repeated the climb Patinoso (5.14c) in Siurana, Spain. According to ukclimbing.com, she was aiming to climb the route Chikane, an 80-foot 5.14c in the Campi Qui Pugui sector. She instead redpointed Patinoso, a 130-foot endurance route in the El Pati sector. This is Dufraisse's first of the grade; previously, she had climbed two 5.14b's, including l'Arcadémicien in Céüse in 2010—a 5.14b established by Sylvain Millét that had not seen a repeat since a hold broke on the route.

  • Just watched this vid again and my calf was vibrating! So strong. And I just realized she is very tall.

  • WOW! Sometimes I see something that makes me think, "wow, I have so much to learn about climbing." You make me say that, SO HARD! Keep up the good work.....

  • Actuallym jarvoramas is right, redpoint/rotpunkt means putting quickdraws (also friends, stoppers and knots) while pipnkpoint is just cliping the rope into preplaced gear.

  • no...Pinpoints are when you place draws as you go, redpoint means they are already there.

  • @DrakoLeonamal pink point means the quickdraws are pre placed , redpoint means you place the draws as you climb ...

  • one question what is de diference betwen pink point and red point climbing?

  • I hope she becomes the first French Female to climb 9a.

  • respect.

    

  • Tough girl! And such a long route! An endurance climber

  • She's Bomb!
