Klem Loskot’s masterpiece, The Bügeleisen Sit Start has long been one of the most coveted boulder problems in the world. With only two ascents on the standing start and none on the sit start, the line has one of the most legitimate claims at the hallowed V16/8C+ rating and has even been endorsed by Adam Ondra. In April 2014 Nalle Hukkataival traveled to Maltatal, Austria for another attempt at the line’s third ascent. In the past, he had been frustrated by the weather and this attempt was to be no exception. Watch him battle rain, humidity, and some incredibly difficult moves for a shot at one of the most difficult and beautiful sends in the world.

Nalle Hukkataival lutte contre une météo exécrable en avril dernier dans The Bügeleisen, un 8b+ (8c?) bloc ouvert par Klem Loskot en 2001. Il a rajouté un départ assis à ce bloc qui n’avait connu que 2 ascensions, pour un possible 8c+.
