With recent ascents up to 5.15b/c, Seb Bouin is one of the world’s strongest climbers. And as the saying goes: like mother, like son.

Some hard routes that Bouin has climbed, include Move 5.15b/c, Thor’s Hammer 5.15a, Mamichula 5.15b and Kmira 5.15a. Watch as Seb and his mom, Claire Cerisier, take turns bolting the area’s most wild looking route.
