La Ligne Claire for Choong

Katherine on the historical 8c+

Katherine Choong has climbed La Ligne Claire, 8c+.

The Swiss climber Choong has climbed a beautiful line, the historical La Ligne Claire in Saint Léger. After seeing the Nolwenn Berthier’s video (really strong and talented French climber) on the route, she has found the right motivation to get in shape again after the european championships in December. For climbing it, Katherine has spent almost 30 days projecting, falling three times neat to the end. In her opinion, the time has been a lot, but she has been in love with every single moment of the process. The most motivating aspect has been starting from feeling impossible some moves to reaching the top of the line. For the future, Katherine would like to climb a lot on the rock, with maybe some multipitches adventure in Verdon o or some days in Saint Léger, one of her favourite crag.

In her career, Choong has already climbed two 9as and he has reached the 8th position in a IFSC lead world cup.
