Action Directe - The World’s First 9a in the Frankenjura by Dylan Chuat

Experience through this video the ascent of the world’s first 9a, Action Directe, a historic route opened in 1991 by Wolfgang Güllich, a pioneer of climbing during that era.

I decided to try this route following a pulley injury on my ring finger. I didn’t want to stop climbing, so I continued but only using two fingers on my right hand. That’s why I went to the Frankenjura to attempt this route.

It only took me six go to conquer this small piece of climbing history.

Thank you, Sébastien Maflin, for the exceptional footage, adventure, and editing.

Enjoy the video!
