The Lappnor Project

Souvenez-vous… Le 24 Octobre dernier, Nalle Hukkataival secouait le monde de la planète grimpe en annonçant le premier 9A bloc de l’histoire de l’escalade. Il venait de libérer le « Lappnor Project », un bloc aussi pur qu’ultime, qu’il travaillait depuis des années.
Une équipe de production a suivi Nalle Hukkataival depuis ses tous premiers essais dans le bloc, en 2013. Après des heures de travail, de tournage et de montage, la date est enfin connue. Le film complet retraçant l’histoire du premier 9A bloc sera disponible dès le 8 Février 2017à 17h00. Une tournée mondiale sera également organisée à différentes dates.

"
Perdu dans la forêt finlandaise, se trouvait un bloc, jamais gravi par aucun Homme, appelé « The Lappnor Project ». Il était considéré comme le bloc le plus dur du monde et peut-être même impossible pour un humain.
Nalle Hukkataival, un fort grimpeur finlandais, a accepté le challenge. Il a fallu près de quatre ans d’engagement total et ses efforts et progrès dans le bloc ont été suivis par des milliers de grimpeurs à travers le monde.
Quand Nalle réussit, il fit trembler le monde de l’escalade comme jamais auparavant: il venait d’enchaîner le premier 9A bloc de l’histoire. 
Le documentaire suit le voyage de Nalle dès ses débuts, jusqu’à la première ascension presque une demi-décennie plus tard. Il capture l’incroyable dévouement qui était nécessaire pour traiter toutes les variables et de prendre cette dernière étape comme le prochain niveau d’escalade.

The Lappnor Project - A Documentary About Not Giving Up from Blue Kangoo Films on Vimeo.


In the Finnish forests was an unclimbed route called the Lappnor project. It was considered to be the hardest climbing route in the world and perhaps impossible for a human.

Nalle Hukkataival, a strong Finnish climber took up the challenge. It required almost four years of total commitment and his efforts were followed by hundreds of thousands of climbers around the world.

When Nalle finally succeeded, it blew away the whole climbing world like nothing before. The first 9A boulder was climbed!

The documentary follows Nalle's journey from the very beginning, all the way to the first ascent almost half a decade later. It captures the incredible dedication that was needed to deal with all the variables and to take that last step to open the next level of climbing.

Duration: 34 min

Languages: English and Finnish (subtitled in English)

Trailer : Western Gold


Join Savage Films on an adventure in search of the best highball boulders on the west coast of North America. Western Gold will introduce you to the tallest, hardest, most aesthetic lines that the west coast has to offer - and all of it off the beaten path. Artistic filming captures the beauty of desert bouldering in Red Rocks Nevada, small mountain towns like Leavenworth Washington and Squamish British Columbia, and the simplicity of Cody Wyoming and Castle Rocks Idaho. Western Gold provides an authentic view of the bouldering experience from trials of pushing the limits to the psych of topping out a boulder. This is the true bouldering experience. This is why you boulder.

Adam Ondra - First 8C Boulders

Adam Ondra climbed his first two 8C boulders in November 2010 in Ticino, Switzerland.
BIG PAW - 8B+/C
FROM DIRT GROW THE FLOWERS - 8C

This small video is small Christmas present form "BERNARTWOOD studio" to all climbers. These 2 boulders did not find its place in the final movie about Adam. They were planned to be on the DVD in EXTRAS. But yesterday, I decided to edit it a bit and give it to everybody...
Sorry for the "big" movie about Adam taking so long, it was incredibly hard work, mainly mental, but it is finished, and prepared for delivering. We would like to put it out as a HD DOWNLOAD on December 31st, if all technical aspects will be OK.
DVD with really rich extras will follow in January.
All the important info (length, formats, prices, film tour etc) will appear after December 26th on WWW.ADAMONDRAFILM.COM
Have a nice and quiet non-consume winter time...
Petr Pavlíček - author of the movie.

Fred Nicole

Fred Nicole's lines have inspired thousands and pushed our imaginations to stretch the possible into reality. The first to climb the grades 8b, 8b+ and 8c, he redefined what is possible. His vision and passion are largely responsible for the development of the hardest lines in the best (and best known) areas on Earth, from Magic Wood to Hueco Tanks, to the Rocklands ~Rock and Ice

Shoshala Trishul direct

Last year (2010), during a bouldering trip, Elie Chevieux found a big wall in Baspa Valley. He decided to go back this year with Giovanni Quirici and Yannick Boissenot to open a new route on this virgin summit : “The Shoshala”.
After 2 months in India, 3 weeks at the base camp with only 3 sunny days, they opened a 2,300-foot route with many pitches in the 7th degree and reached the summit, standing at 15,400 feet.

It was the last expedition of Giovanni Quirici.
