This edit documents Cédric Lachat's one-day, no-fall lead of WoGü (350 m, 8c) in the Rätikon, a route first opened by Beat Kammerlander. Nina Caprez appears throughout as belayer and partner; the video shows Lachat leading every pitch on the full multi-pitch line and linking the hard sections without falling. The value of this raw ascent footage is practical: it records consecutive hard pitches on a long sport multi-pitch, the sequence of rests and transitions, and rope/lead technique under sustained difficulty. For climbers interested in pacing, linking steep pitches and partner management on an 8c multi-pitch, the edit is a clear, unembellished example of how a complete ascent is put together on Rätikon limestone.
