Low start to Quoi de Neuf (Acte 2). Extension of Quoi de Neuf (Acte 1).
This is currently unclimbable. Typically this is because the climb existed in some state but then changed significantly (e.g. by losing holds) and is now considered a different climb.

In early 2025 the large flake which makes up the start of the problem broke off. [1]
