The Lappnor Project | The First Ever 9A Boulder Climb

Deep in the forests of Finland stood an unclimbed boulder problem known as the Lappnor Project — a line many believed could be impossible for a human to climb. Finnish climber Nalle Hukkataival decided to prove otherwise. The Lappnor Project (2017) follows Nalle’s relentless pursuit of what would become one of the most historic achievements in climbing. Over nearly four years of dedication, countless attempts, and global anticipation from the climbing community, he pushed the limits of human strength and perseverance. When the impossible finally happened, the climb redefined the sport — the world’s first 9A (V17) boulder was born. This powerful documentary captures the patience, struggle, and determination behind a breakthrough that elevated bouldering to an entirely new level. 🎬 Production: Blue Kangoo Films 🧗 Athlete: Nalle Hukkataival 📅 Year: 2017 ⏱ Runtime: 33 Minutes 📍 Location: Finland Official Selections (2017): Wasatch Mountain Film Festival Oaxaca Sports Film Festival Adventure Outdoor Fest Eho Mountain Film Festival Mountain Film Meetings Zakopane Lądek Mountain Festival Watch more climbing documentaries and athlete stories on Adventure Sports TV. #TheLappnorProject #NalleHukkataival #Bouldering #RockClimbing #ClimbingDocumentary #V17 #9ABoulder #ClimbingHistory #AdventureSportsTV #ClimbingFilm #ProClimber #OutdoorAdventure #climbingfilm #climbing #climb #climbingrocks Love what you just watched?
