Makoto Yamauchi ticks Burden of Dreams (9A)

Makoto Yamauchi, who sent 8C already in 2014, live-streamed his session repeating Nalle Hukkataivalโ€™s Burden of Dreams (9A) in Lappnor today.

The 31-year-old took off 48:23 and 20 seconds and 3.5 moves later he managed to get control of the huge swing from the big dyno. This was the second trip to Finland for the Japanese climber, who was very close to completing it on the first trip and who prepared by working on a replica.
