Top Japanese climber Keita Kurakami has sent his three-year project and called it The V 5.14d/15a. While Kurakami has never sent a 5.15a, he said that his attempts of them in the past combined with his 5.14+ climbs give him confidence of his suggested grade.
In his Instagram post about his send, he said talked about now focusing on the the hard times ahead in dealing with coronavirus. In 2018, he rope-solo-freed The Nose 5.14a after first attempting it in 2017.
In 2019, he made a rope-solo ascent of Mare, a 5.14c on Mount Futago in Japan. It was likely the most difficult rope-solo ever of a single pitch sport climb.
