Nalle Hukkataival climbing Banshousha, V13 slab

Nalle Hukkataival repeating 伴奏者 (Banshousha) in Ogawayama, Japan. This problem was originally graded V15, despite Nalle's downgrade to V13, it is one of the hardest slabs in the world (if not the hardest).

@smokeweedinhell666 totally agree with you... its always fun to throw cocky gym rats on a slab route and watch them experience epic failure

@boxsterwelby what would u know... nothing.

i know of another very hard slab, its called the Impossible Slab at Stanworth Quarry in Lancashire, UK. Put up by the legend John Gaskins and weighs in at around V13 7b (british tech 7b). Seeing how Tyler Landman described one of John's 8a+'s the hardest thing he's ever tried, I reckon its up there with this for being the hardest slab route in the world!

@09RichardF Haha yes gym rats have no place on real rock, which is why they only excel on steep walls with real holds. Listen to all these ignorant people "well it doesn't look powerful enough to be that hard, maybe v5" as if its a surprise that there is more to bouldering than crimps on a 45 degree wall.

How can you people say that slab is not climbing? John Gill, who was one of the first bouldering pioneers established hideous slab problems in hiking boots.

Although it is hard to grade friction (who cares anyway?) I would like to see you guys get up on those nothing smears. Gym rats can't even touch this realm of climbing.

@TheRockMarc Sorry 8a+ is V12!

Hallo, it´s nalle!!! This Problem dosn´t look powerfull right but that is what you see in these video.

When I see nalle flashing 8a+ somthing round v11, it dosn´t look hard too. It is high and you need balls!

Just do it yourselfe and afterwords you can downgrade it!!

I have no idear how hard it ist, but looks nice.

Check out his Norway video!

Climb hard!!!

@sk8rpnk702 Nalle warms up on v8-v10 and climbs v15 I don't see him have to work on anything easier than a v11.
