Climb Name Type Grade # Ascents Recorded Notes Exclude Reason
Le Maniaque Aux Sept Crochets Sport route 8a 2
Le Mouvement Perpétuel Traverse 8b (approx) 2

A traverse enchaining several classic straight-up 7s, down climbing some of them and throwing in a loop for good measure. The fashion of the day, but a concept which has not proved enduring.

Steve Gough, 1997 Fontainebleau guidebook:

1989: With natural unclimbed lines becoming scarce, eliminates and traverses begin to grow in popularity. […] Jacky Godoffe climbs the never-ending Movement Perpetuel [sic] 8b at Cuvier. This awesome traverse waits four years for a repeat at the hands of the mighty Benoît Faure who becomes one of the keenest devotees of the horizontal game.
