Will Bosi talks to Niall Grimes about his historic repeat of Steve McClure's Mutation and his first ascent of Brandenburg Gate, both Raven Tor 9a+ routes.
This was one of the most interesting sport climbing podcasts lately! Literally might rewrite the history of the sport. There are so many contenders for the first 9a+ or even 9b now.
Niall, thanks for that. As for the sun coming out and washing out the colours, there is something called exposure correction in video editing softwares :)).
Will, no desire to try Silence, or Bibliographie? Go repeat some 9b+ like Perfecto Mundo? Btw, if you want to keep the tradition alive of Brits sticking it up to us Frogs, why not go visit the stunning Bombé bleu, a 25 y-o project that keeps shutting people down?
Could you not just keep climbing and make a much longer route? There must be loads of new lines to link up. Great intrview and chat and nice to see the accent at the end.

Oh. And sorry that Mutations wasn't first 9a, Big bang was. And sorry about anything else I have to be sorry about too. Niall
Sorry about being a wee bit outta sync at the start and the nuclear flash at the end :-) Niall

He did answer this.
Will said that it was the logical finish (after the boulder problem) and it wouldn't change the grade.
