Hukkataival reclimbs The Alchemiste

Nalle Hukkataival, one of the greatest boulderer the last ten years, comes with great news on FB and Neil Hart got the picture and a video is coming up. "The Alchemiste! Finally! It's been a real battle with this one, so stoked to finally have finished it!! Yesterday was one of those special days. One of Fontainebleau's best known projects for 18 years. First opened by Marc Le Menestel in 1997 in it's original state and never repeated until crux holds got mysteriously hammered off. A lot of story behind this piece of rock and what a great line it is! Video to come! Swoooop!!
