The conditions on the North side of the hill, where most of the most interesting boulders are, were humid, but "La Théorie du Chaos" lied perfectly dry in the sun and caught a nice breeze.
Having done this beautiful, but very hard problem in March 2019, so not even a year ago, I was able to repeat it relatively quick. At least, much faster than on the below video from March 2019.
I came close to doing the sitstart, and Pieter very close to the stand, but no sigar.

After discussing further options, we decided to pay a visit to the small Rocher Canon Ouest area where we had the beautiful boulder of "Chute de Pierre" all for ourselves.
The standstart, "Chute de Pierre (debout)" took longer than I had expected to find a good method for the topout. We helped ourselves by watching a video on bleau.info and then a send followed soon by both of us.

The low sitstart felt very hard, but having done the standstart just before, I made this on my second attempt.

We finished the half day on the other side of the boulder, where I quite easily flashed "Rêve de Pierre", but then again, this fits my style quite well.
Pieter had a long fight, especially with his fear and was close to giving up, but ended up working his way through using his own method. Unfortunately he was too tired and didn't want to do it again for the video, so I can't show the nice way that he solved that.
