Despite being one of the strongest boulderers in the world, Isabelle Faus remains much of a mystery. Usually the 29-year-old American climbs away of the spotlight, but Matty Hong's portrait "Behind the Seams" now restitutes some of the attention she justifiably deserves. Also because after having repeated several 8B+, in summer 2020 she discovered, cleaned and established Sinawav at Pine Cliff, USA. Graded V14/8B+, this is one of the hardest blocks ever first ascended by a woman.
