Nalle Hukkataival makes the first repeat of Banshousha (8C), Ogawayama, Japan

Back in 2000 Tokio Muroi did the FA of 伴奏者 (Bansousha) at Ogawayama, Japan and gave it 5. dan, which translates to 8C or V15. It's a 6-meter slab and, until April 22 2009, no one had been able to repeat it. Along comes Black Diamond athlete Nalle Hukkataival, who needed one day, to do the 2nd ascent. Watch the video below and read the full story on his blog.
