Finns have a very characteristic tenderness when they speak about their country. They love their land in a very pure and true way. Listening to Nalle describing their trip reminded me that.
When Kendrick Lamar released “damn” I don’t think he would have guessed that years later, his album would be played at a remote lake in Finland during a deep water free solo. Love it. Great climb mate.
@@stephenr80 I think that's wrong. Basque is a language isolate, the only member of its Vasconic family. Finnish is a Uralic language, connected to Hungarian and several other Uralic family descendants. There is no know connection between Basque and any of the Uralic family. One linguist, writing in 1862, hypothized a connection, but essentially nobody else agrees that this is correct.
Love watching Nalle, If Finland had more rock we would definitely be seeing alot of elite climbers coming out of there. Finns are so strong, unrelentless. Finns have SISU. If you know you know.
I have 2 questions... First is: how many chalk bags / dry shoes do they have standing by? I know it takes a while for shoes to dry from working in a gym and you can't put chalk in a bag that is even damp. Second is: I wonder if they check the water with a depth-finder or anything before they jump from so high into it for rocks in a place that isn't known to be a safe jumping spot and out in the wilderness? Great video!
Not only shoes and chalk bags, but dry pants as well. Can't imagine climbing with dripping wet pants either. :D As for the depth of the water. What I do usually when jumping from rocks is that I dive as deep as I feel comfortable doing feet first a few times at different spots and if I don't reach the bottom, it's good to go. When you jump from like 10 m you don't really go deeper than 4-5 m with your feet (less if you have good technique I guess), and diving that deep is no problem.
I used to climb. Had rope and gear. But I watch the skill level of climbers like this and feel as if saying that ‘I used to climb’ is an overstatement. If this guy is Tiger Woods, all I did was Putt-Putt.
@@necrodefecator Did I say Finland Is a Scandic language?🤔 Finland Is a Nordic country (you can google it if you dont believe me) And thats why Finnish is allso nordic language. But yes Finnish is not germanic language.
@@iirowiik2855 I don't need to google Finland, I know where it is on a map, since I am a finn myself. If you knew how to read a conversation properly you'll understand I am talking about the langage. Geography is another matter, Finland is a nordic country but NOT counted as part of Scandinavia.
So how does deep water soloing work with wet equipment? Are multiple pairs of shoes brought to switch out and dry in between tries? And chalk bags/chalk?
I'm curious when you fall and your chat bag gets wet. Do you just have multiple chalk bags there? Or are you using something other than chalk to help improve grip?
lol someone cracking a beer at 5:51 right when the crux starts

I have been once in a relationship with a Finnish woman and can confirm this.
I love the nature, the land and the loneliness but culture isn't my thing.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Amazing!!
Love how he says "there's even a floating sauna under the cliff" like Mother Nature just put it there as she was creating those cliffs
"It doesn't get much better than this"
7:08 Finnish mentality perfectly described in a sentence.
What a perfect little film! The language sounds so like Hungarian but I only understood one word: sauna...
Finnish language is related to Hungarian
@@PetriW and some argue Basque too

Nalle always seems like such a chill guy..probably explains why his climbing style is so fluid and great to watch. What a cool route as well!

I wish I could have that much "pure luck".... I've just never trained and practised enough to have it though
Great video, loved the place and, as always, such a pleasure to see Nalle trying hard
Such an epic location and what a line to send! Beauty in motion
Geez, both Pretzl and BD are on a roll with the climbing vids. I like how BD doesn't plaster their logo all over everything.
Such a great video!
Everything at it is awesome: the place, the climbing, the climber,...
It looked like a true mastery. Beautiful flow, power and judgement.
Thoroughly enjoyed that! Finland looks like somewhere I need to visit
what a great guy. His love for climbing is the best.
Great Video, great cliff, great climbing... More ? :D
The name of the route is great!! Love it!
Amazing Nalle. Its good to see you on the tube again.
Wow that was intense and unique little film!
really beautiful video. nicely done bravo guys
Finns: Mention a floating sauna at the base of a DWS, so casually.
The rest of the world: What's that how now?
Haha yeah. Nalle and Martin actually built a sauna in Rocklands also since they spend so much time there😄
Nalle is a special kind of human
Great video - thanks for making and sharing.
I really enjoyed watching your amazing video! Thanks for sharing!
Love how he starts celebrating at what still looks like a difficult climb 😅
4:00 there is something oddly satisfying about Kendrick Lamar playing in the background :)
DNA!! haha 💥
That looks amazing. Those countries up North have some special places I wish I could go visit someday.
Even in the heart of Helsinki, you're never far from a fantastic boulder. I love climbing here (for 6 months a year).
i love that nalle listens to kendrick lmao
For sure Kendrick helped him do the crux
Kiitoksia paljon tästä Black Diamond!
Great video and I think I just got an new item to my next summer bucket list!

Cool! Are there "easier" routes there also?
What a sick place
fantastic training, i like the video, it seem nearly impossible
great place, great line, great film ;)
Wow :) what a line!
That was amazing!
this malkes me want to try DWS so bad! awesome video
....Off the Sauna!
Beautiful line
I always wonder about the wet climbing shoes and magnesium bag
Wet shoes is not a big problem, bring a lot of chalk bags…
Finish sound so funny and awesome i love nordic languages!!
Finish is not a nordic langage :)
@@necrodefecator Yes it is but is it scandinavian? No.
@@iirowiik2855 No, it's not scandinavian. Finnish langage does not share any roots with swedish, danish, norwegian and icelandic.
@@necrodefecator Did I say Finland Is a Scandic language?🤔
Finland Is a Nordic country (you can google it if you dont believe me)
And thats why Finnish is allso nordic language.
But yes Finnish is not germanic language.

Yeah they'll have lots of shoes/chalk bags. I imagine the sauna comes in handy for drying stuff
If you try 8c yes. But ive done it with wet fet and easy routes les than 7b and doesnt rly affect. At least in mallorca.
Сколько пар одинаковых штанов с собой он взял интересно. Они всегда сухие)
Happy Birthday!
Hyvää!
Nice video!!!!
Superb!
Sick dude
very nice dude !
El Tippa Tappa. Love it.! Still waiting to see a seal 😏
Ei tippa tapa = A drop won’t kill you (with the drop referring to alcohol)
Nice Shoes!
How many chalkbags you need per day? ^^
Really nice video, Nalle is a beast and a really cool guy.. One question out of context, which pants is he using? Heh (:
Jesus that looks gnarly toward the top. Impressive send. Viking balls in tow lol.
Allez Nalle
with a floating SAUNA now i know Finland style :D
Elegant
Must be a lot of wet chalk bags from drops into the water
we need el nido or raja ampat DWS
legit curiosity because ive been looking for good climbing pants.....what kind of pants was he wearing?
Looks amazing! I wanna go, but on a 6A lol
What does he do when his chalk keeps getting wet?
So this is what Nalle has been up to... He hasnt updated his IG all year. I was wondering how hes been
The water below can't be more than 55 degrees. That's motivation enough.
I don't think that's much of a problem when you have a floating sauna nearby.
Jokes aside, Finland is not that cold in the summer, and the lakes can get quite warm, up to 20 Celsius.
@@milksaboteur
>quite warm
>20°C
id freeze to death :D
during summer the surface water can easily be 24 degrees celsius or 75 degrees fahrenheit
he keeps saying "ground up"--I think he means something a bit different in this case :-)
nice
Missä tuo on? Löytyykö helppoja(5, 6a, 6b) linjoja?

Awesome video, but it seems pretty intuitive to turn off the music when you're filming for a documentary...
In Finland there are more sauna than people.
Not true... only one sauna per two persons. Still quite a few of them around. ;)
A Wevo !
Love that Ghetto Sauna!
2:38 his carabiner is cross loaded on the belay loop lol
Nalle, you're a nice guy, don't come to school tomorrow.
I'm curious when you fall and your chat bag gets wet. Do you just have multiple chalk bags there? Or are you using something other than chalk to help improve grip?
