Yesterday at Saint Léger du Ventoux in France Julia Chanourdie climbed Eagle-4, becoming only the third woman in the world to climb a 9b after Angela Eiter and Laura Rogora.
Chanourdie had demonstrated her incredible talent and form in March when she sent her first 9a+, Super Crackinette at St. Léger du Ventoux. This is evidently one of her favourite climbing areas and while a few days ago she made a rare female 8b onsight with her first-go ascent of La barre à un million d’année, yesterday she landed this coup which places her among the all-time greats of modern sports climbing.
