Toshi Takeuchi Climbs New V15 in Japan
Toshi Takeuchi has made the first ascent of Babylon V15 in Toyota, Japan. After the send, he wrote on his social media, “Yesterday, I did one of the best and hardest boulder problems I’ve ever done. I managed to do a longstanding project in Toyota. I first tried it two years ago and sent it yesterday.
“In my opinion, it has 11 moves of hard V14 and 12moves of V11 for a total of 23 moves and a final grad of V15. I named it Babylon.” Watch Takeuchi project the route before the send by clicking on the clip below.
