How to become a better climber (stage 1)

Stage 1: get more experience of multi pitch climbs.
Location: Le Passet, Chamonix valley
Details of climb: 12 pitches
Difficulty: expected 6a max, but turned out to include 2 pitches of 6c/6c+ (A0).
With: Beatrice, Max, Gerard
Comments: Great first experience of a long climb for me. I was able to lead quite a few pictches (I shared the rope with Gerard), and Max led the crux pitches for the 4 of us.
Also, I am much more efficient now with the double rappel rope and the plaquette system.
