Nalle Hukkataival flashes 8B

Published 5 months ago by Mignon Olivier.

Nalle reported on his scorecard that he has flashed "The Crown of Aragorn" in Hueco Tanks.

He commented about it saying "The benchmark for the V13 grade"

Nalle is thereby the fourth person to flash the grade of 8b after Daniel Woods, Adam Ondra, and Paul Robinson.

As you might see from the quality of the photo that it is a screen shot, and Mr. Hukkataival informed that the video will be up soon.

Congrats Nalle for the amazing flash.

Aaron Schneider » I didn't realize there were so few to flash 8B; what an elite group to be a part of. I'm surprised that Dai or one of the other lesser known Japanese crushers haven't flashed 8B. 5 months ago
Mignon Olivier » well to answer you some other people had flashed 8B especially James pearson and a Japanese but the boulders were downgraded so I did not count them. 5 months ago
