Can anyone tell me the correct line of this problem, I climbed it today using the method in the 7&8 book that says sit start and finish right of arete, I then watched the video and it climbs the left side of the arete. I found climing the left side very easy around 6c, ant climbing the right side just slightly harder

can anyone explain please

The left problem (climbed in the video) is in fact l'Été Indien 6b and 6c+ with a sit start according to the Trois Pignons guidebook by Naëls. I will ask the editors to add this problem to the website (the standing start is listed on this website) and to move the video there(*). The problem to the right of the arête is Printemps d'Automne and in my opinion it should be graded 6c+ or 6c+ (7a).

(*) Note of the editors : that's done!
