By definition, you are free soloing any time you climb without a rope, regardless of the difficulty. The common usage, however, refers to a climber who is scaling a fifth class climb where a rope and equipment are usually employed. Yet the free soloer has neither. 5, record 1, English, - free%20solo

Le grimpeur en solo intégral étant libre de tout matériel, ce style d'escalade est extrêmement dangereux et déconseillé pour des non-expérimentés. L'utilisation de casque ou de crash pad (comme en bloc) ne constitue pas un système d'assurage, mais permet de limiter les blessures ou chocs et est conseillée pour minimiser les risques qui sont, lors de ce style de pratique, énormes. 2, record 1, French, - solo%20int%C3%A9gral
