Pirayaklubben, 8b flash and solo by Aleksej Jaruta

Aleksej Jaruta, 17, has both flashed and soloed Pirayaklubben, 8b, at Hylteberget outside Gothenburg, Sweden.

After flashing the route, thereby becoming the first Swede to flash 8b in Sweden, Aleksej decided this wasn't enough and proceeded by soloing it without any further practice.

If the route name sounds familiar, it could be because it was mentioned in the news about Benjamin Linné Ryn, who soloed it last year.

Here is a video of Benjamin's ascent:

Solo. "Solo"? He's got ten, (TEN!) pads.

Spot on mate, you're far more of a man than he is.

Would you jump off the top on to those pads?
27 May, 2015
Okay, thank you very much.

I'd rather not. I didn't say it was safe. But he's still got ten more pads than I would consider a true solo. Cheers. Si.
