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).

V13 is 8B on the FB grading system. V15 would be 8C. Just to save everyone else some time.

i saw this directly AFTER already looking up the conversion table ;)

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!

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

[@Chetjim9094]

Hate slab. Hate it with a passion. I wouldn't hop on a 5.8 slab. Easy way to sandpaper your face and stomach off.

[@qwertyuiopjoel]

look on the bright side, the harder the slab, the less 'sandpaper' its effect will be on your skin!

[@bobrickleson2087]

sounds like someone has a little slab in their vajay jay

[@gregguerra8509]

Isaac Gordon slab is the ONLY way to boulder!

[@oldi6btm6t9d4]

If you hate slab then I hate you!

[@Chetjim9094]

@@oldi6btm6t9d4 wow, I can honerstly say in the last 5 years I've fallen in love with slab.

[@johntuttle9544]

Rap and Bouldering are anathema to each other. Lose it Malibu's most wanted.

[@strongarmclimbing]

Your solution: watch on mute.
