The Most Chaotic V13 Flash You’ll Ever See

Shawn Raboutou sends Spectre, as his spotters chase pads that are blowing away

Gripped December 17, 2021

Shawn Raboutou recently flashed Spectre, a classic test-piece established by Dave Graham many years ago. Found at the Pollen Grains in Bishop, burly granite moves lead to a techy traverse and high-ball top-out.

In this film, Raboutou climbs as wind gusts blow the pads away, sending his spotters running after them as other climbers step in to spot. Daviel Woods feeds him beta as he makes strenuous moves high off the ground.

As Dave MacLeod said, “What an excellent combination of amazing athletic performance and absolute chaos.”
