'Northern Lights' 9a at Kilnsey climbed by Josh Ibbertson

17-year-old Josh Ibbertson became the 5th person to climb 'Northern Lights' at Kilnsey, a route that he describes as 'pure power endurance'.
The route was bolted by Ben Moon and first climbed by Steve McClure, followed by Adam Ondra, Alex Megos and Will Bosi.
Josh gives a full breakdown of the route, move by move, and you get to see it from all the different angles. This, however, is not the only beta for this route, in the footage of Ben Moon, Ryan Pasquill and Eder Lomba you will see alternative ways to do some of the moves on this iconic 9a.

Really enjoyed the voice-over of the route and the small technical nuances that are often missed when simply viewing a climb! great footage, sick climb

Looks like a series of 7b boulder problems. Very clean, hard line.
