Shawn Raboutou makes first repeat of Ryuichi Murai 8C+
Shawn Raboutou has made a rare ascent of United, 8C+, on Mount Mizugaki, Japan
This week's Friday Night Video takes us to Eldorado Canyon, Colorado, where Shawn Raboutou has announced his new mind-boggling difficult Font 9A: Megatron.
His success on the project has been a badly kept secret in the climbing world and rumours were circulating as soon as he reported his other 9A, Alphane, that he had climbed a second the previous winter. If the grades stand, Shawn will be the first person to have climbed two 9A problems.

Is it just on my phone that the sound synch is way out?
It seemed fine on my iPhone. Refresh and try again?
That was excellent, apart from the annoying "Go Shawn, Chill, You got it, Yeah dude......" commentary all through the successful ascent.
