The way he hits the first move with 3 finger drag and just keeps going should be illegal lol

[@user-bx4zq7fx7e]

Absolutely crushed it! Few more climbing days and that might have been it...

[@tijo3328]

Soooo strong!! The way ryuichi-san falls off his last attempt and proceeds to smile is truly admirable!

[@adamhaas141]

Whoa, that was close!😲 Congratulations to Ryuichi-san on the progress!😀

[@SuedeNWings]

sending in season 2 for sure

[@FtwXXgigady]

really appreciated the shot at 1:25 , we never get to see the area around the boulder, kinda awesome that it's just off the side of the road.

[@supalexxx]

the boulder used to be inside the forest but they cut down the trees ;(

[@sammonsalve5657]

The heel beta is crazy. You got it!

[@augustclimbing]

So awesome to see more footage of your time out there! Can’t wait for the next season… a send is close 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Thanks_Dad]

Ryuichi is so goddamn tough, wow!

[@Whueso]

Beautiful footage, chill soundtrack, strong climbing. Well done!

[@IndigoClimbs]

I can't wait to see you on this next season! Send incoming, so strong!

[@matiask7633]

Followed this on ig, did not realize he was this damn close! Insane progress!

[@fritzzegters]

So strong. So close. 🔥🔥💪🏼

[@Dexter-lk8if]

Ryuichi is so strong... Wow. Please keep up the good work!

[@Yuwa-we2ep]

in one season thats actually so impressive

[@HippieDreamsWV]

Awesome watching you all take on these amazing climbs! Been waiting to see a 9a! This is the best bouldering channel on KZbin, really dig the style! Keep it up!

[@rockatanaka]

SO CLOSE! Next time for sure! 💪🏼

[@Climbzip]

So strong!!! we all know you will send this next trip.

[@shoeg]

凄いです！素晴らしいです！！次に行った時に落とせそうですね。無茶苦茶応援しています！！

[@jaigrant-williams7736]

Need that Rokdo sweatshirt!

[@lovmtb5936]

Welcome back to Loviisa. You will make it!

[@konkelkent]

its beautiful in its simplicity

[@hobgoblin7336]

nearly did it in 4 sessions, superhuman!

[@TheLuzonian]

Great vid!!! Thx for the stoke!!! Training season is upon us and this vid helps with the motivation to try hard. Can’t wait to see you send this

[@thecubiccrafter8044]

HUGE! I am so happy to see you on this boulder :)

[@user-vy1yo4wp9q]

Nice, you've got it 😮.

[@xinsanedefeatx]

When you see the progression in a matter of a few session, you've gotta wonder if some of his FA's are actually V17, but he was just too humble to grade them as such Massively impressive performance.

[@LemonLimeFlavoured]

damn dude, you can't get much closer than that. Can't wait for the send

[@BoulderingBobat]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@pirateradioFPV]

わ~フィンランドから応援してる✊

[@technodromen]

forever and always shout out to Nalle for giving us, the climbing world this problem and subsequent content that has followed. our generations biggest test piece when it comes to bouldering. you will never be forgotten Nalle

[@TrackpadProductions]

_"you will never be forgotten Nalle

[@euphoria667]

Lol bro he's not dead

[@technodromen]

@@euphoria667 lol. I know he’s not. but his continued contributions to climbing MIGHT be. and this is his magnum opus. and that deserves a s/o. always.

[@technodromen]

@@TrackpadProductions it isn’t when the person seamingly has chosen to step out of the public eye. so there is a chance he might actually be forgotten.

[@nsewnsew1]

Let's go Ryuichi!

[@aroimicaraffu]

Execuse me, are you joking? It can't be possible to progress this boulder so fast😂 SO STRONG!!!

[@dizietz]

Really awesome progress!

[@Andrii__di]

Amazing work 🔥 Autumn sends incoming;)

[@anthonyyatesfotaj]

It's going to go down...

[@MrWill830]

Venga !

[@user-java]

Amazing climbing!!!❤

[@blakes8901]

Next time. Next time for sure.

[@JulianaOptional]

Yes I do sports as well I keep it cool with swimming.

[@chadclark8069]

warrior!

[@darkaquatus]

So I truly wonder what person would walk past this rock and say to himself: "Yes, let's turn this into a boulder problem."

[@JulianaOptional]

Only out of trust for Joe, fine that is me that’s Ian as well.

[@urabagofcells2228]

aidens there :-)

[@ejl74]

Dope!

[@gabe5868]

Was your session three clip and send not a full send from bottom to top? cause it sure looked like it. keep it up Ryuichi-san! good work!

[@CrispyCrimpsClimbing]

I am a simple man: When ever I see ROKDO has a new Vid I make popcorn

[@robertobreve8623]

almost sent!

[@theflyingsaucer906]

Purple sky.

[@egonalpman8287]

Wow so strong

[@JulianaOptional]

That is enough.

[@sethgilbertson2474]

❤❤❤

[@MichaelBranch-km4rh]

I love this kind of boulder. High grade not from linking lesser problems just super hard every move. How many repeat ascents are there so far?>

[@themeatpopsicle]

If there's anyone I would expect to send this next, it's Murai

[@mcdoonaldsmanager8706]

monster

[@titiuclaudio]

Seems like you're not a full time sponsored climber (regular job / "weekend" warrior!?). Lets keep the fire burning! 🔥

[@ivo_picha]

super strong! do you think it is still 9A with this beta?

[@ralphmunn6689]

Predictable, but still exciting to see this beast attacked head-on - much more frontally and less convoluted footwork, etc. This may be the future of high-end bouldering, beastly strength wedded to exacting precision! 🙏

[@theriwen7863]

頑張った

[@isakhammer6558]

Do you agree it is a proper V17?

[@stacky512a]

Brutal sure, but V17?

[@lucaa4480]

wtf did he train on the replica before the trip?

[@mathieuallez4524]

he said he didn't in an instagram post. "This was my first Burden tour, and I wanted to experience the wonder and impact of this king line firsthand in Finland, so I didn't train using a replica."

[@lucaa4480]

@@mathieuallez4524 ok thanks so he almost did a 9a in 4 sessions 😂😂😂, also he used the same start as Nalle which he moved is right foot before doing the first hard movement... chapeau

[@asdzt123]

@@mathieuallez4524 That's really impressive. His contact strength must be off the charts to get the first movement done like that without replica training.

[@atiithe]

Torille (obligatory)

[@MrSorsa5]

What is wrong with the try at 0:50? He makes it to the top

[@sm64guy28]

He started halfway through the route to practice the last jump. It’s not invalid it’s just not the whole boulder

[@pietermantel9979]

was it made of granite?

[@Arithmophobia]

Yes

[@p3scful]

🤍

[@IllIlllI]

First song name please 🥺

[@birdbones_]

No replica training and a proper start… style

[@ajstang1998]

Anyone know what shoes he's wearing?

[@shredpuppy]

I know his sponsor is Unparallel, but what model here, I don't know

[@takuyamatsuda7214]

Rokdoのサブ数が1万以下なのが不思議

[@middle-agedclimber]

Great video, next trip. But man, the first song was so shitty i had to mute.

[@blakes8901]

It's a good song, but the average person's taste in music crystalizes and ceases to be easily malleable in their mid 20s, unless they really try to keep an open mind. I wouldn't be so entitled as to say that I expect you to put that much effort in though; after all, as a self proclaimed middle-aged climber it makes sense that you might not like it. However you should at least try to keep enough of an open mind to not insult others about the type of music they like.

[@middle-agedclimber]

@@blakes8901 I've been expanding my horizons well into my 40s, playing 3 instruments for more than 30 year helps it 😊 Utter 💩 is stil 💩no matter how much you try to twist it, buddy.

[@blakes8901]

You're quite standoffish. An intelligent and respectful human would have realized their error and apologized instead of doubling down

[@user-px4db2sk4p]

this is something i can’t understand… so there a rock in the middle of nowhere… and people come… to climb on it… so stupid… and there are many fans of people doing it… amazing

[@sm64guy28]

It’s hard to understand if you love or hate the idea

[@user-px4db2sk4p]

@@sm64guy28 yeah… kind of. I love bouldering in the gym and lead climbing as well, but these small boulders with the teeny tiny less than 1cm holds… something I can not understand…

[@FractalWorkshop]

Adding an extra hold to the left of the first move seems like cheating...

[@Rude_i_Wredne]

Wait, is that a brand new beta? Downgrade incoming? XD

[@richardlee5412]

I sense a downgrade coming soon
