Black Diamond Ambassador Nalle Hukkataival Sends L'alchimiste
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 мар 2015
- In 1996 Marc Le Menestral opened one of the hardest routes in the forest of Fontainebleau, known as L'alchimiste. Not long after Marc's ascent, the crux holds were mysteriously broken, and the route was deemed impossible. Now, nearly two decades later, Black Diamond Ambassador Nalle Hukkataival has reopened the problem.

"If this wasn't here it would be hard" classic line from a pro climber
Great vid! Loved how you showed the progression of his work on the boulder problem.
I really like this kind of simple but inspiring video :)
nice video neil!
Congratulations Nalle!
Bra Jobbat!!!
holy shit that looks like some bad slopers
Nice !
2:00 one of the best spots I’ve ever seen!
whats the grade now?
I've seen from a giant chart of the hardest graded climbs compiled on a google docs that this new version of l'alchimiste by nalle hukkataival is graded as 8C, but idk if it's been repeated/confirmed ever since...
@LukaHB, is there a source of Nalle saying it is a 8C or is that speculation based upon watching his ascent?

Here you go! Unsure of the original source, you'd probably have to dig a bit deeper for that, but this is where I got it from! Found on reddit, it's constantly being updated/recorrected whenever theres new ascents/re-grading. :)
Furthermore, Alban Levier's repeat in 2016 also suggested 8C!
NALLE!
I dont know about you guys.. But to me, this looks like a different line that L'alchimiste...
He is using a different beta.
PetterM well he was using different holds too.. Imo that was different, new boulder. Different beta would be on same holds right?:)
I was thinking the same thing, its a new line with the new holds added.
+Andy Rosen- pyros but it's still the same boulder as before. I believe it's still L'alchimiste but just a different version, since one of the most important holds was removed mysteriously you need to find other holds which could still have been a part of the original beta just not thought of at that time because it was so early on for bouldering as a community and sport and not many people had the power and technique to climb that hard.
fedomir I agree, the beta he was trying in the beginning looked consistent with the original Line, but the way he ended up doing the Boulder is clearly somewhat different. Still a beautiful line and definetly looked really hard🙂
Pfffssj... His new beta makes it a 7a+ at max
