This time around I had the great pleasure of talking to french world-class climber Nico Pelorson. In this episode we discuss his ascent of Soudain Seul; possibly Font’s first 9A, as well as climbing technique, the mental game, training aspects, the relationship between grades and sponsors, social media and much more.
