Mile Heyden Sends New Base Line V14 in Magic Wood

Mile Heyden sent her second V14 with a tick of the classic New Base Line in Magic Wood, Switzerland.

Falling 3 times at the final jug of this incredibly breathtaking line was one of the most frustrating thing I've ever experienced in bouldering but persistence paid off ???? After the failing disaster I was tired of the line and we decided to take a rest day although the wheather was getting worser. After a rainy night motivation was low. We were super surprised that New Base Line was one of the only dry lines in the woods. Friction was perfect, motivation high again and at last I was able to hold the jug! Topping it out with some wet holds was a combination of felicity and heart attack! This line is really one of the most beautiful lines and I'm just super happy, thankful and satisfied to finish this one! ❤❤@matti_staniek #newbaseline #magicwood #mostamazingline #bouldering #girlsboulder #girlspower #bouldering_pictures_of_instagram #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #bouldering_is_my_passion #boulderinglife #climbing #bouldern #bouldernmachtglücklich #klettern #redchiliclimbing #wataaah

Last year, she visited Schwäbische Alb and climbed Feurewalze V14 after only sending V12 before that.

She became the seventh woman to climb the grade after Tomoko Ogawa, Ashima Shiraishi, Shauna Coxsey, Alex Puccio, Isabelle Faus and Melissa LeNevé.

Watch Shiraishi make the second ascent of Nuclear War V14 below.
