Hukkataival questions his Golden Piton "Boldest Move" award

Nalle Hukkataival is skeptical towards the Golden Piton 2016 he got from Climbing in regards, "Boldest move". "This Golden Piton appears to be awarded for my ascent, if only partially and in a slightly backhanded manner, but more so for how I had the nerve to suggest the grade that I did. “Perhaps Hukkataival isn’t one to contemplate the philosophical implications of new bouldering grades” (quote from climbing). Then Nalle continues; As someone who has dedicated his life to the sport and spends perhaps more time than anyone mulling over issues like this, I find a presumption like this pretty unwarranted." The fact is that Hukkataival invested 80+ days, not counting replica training, which could be compared to max 13 days for doing all the 8c's and 8c+ he has done previously. Based on that he said that he had no other choice than to go for 9A. Here is a Hukkataivalgrading theory and practice article from 2010 with lot of references to 8a articles.
