Seb Bouin was looking for a new experience.
“We usually go to places where the climbing is already developed,” he explained.
So, Bouin, along with his mom and two dogs, got in the van and drove up the coast of France to reach Albania. There they found a plethora of undeveloped limestone ripe for the bolting, as well as an undone 9b king line bolted by none other than BD Athlete Adam Ondra.
