Flaying boy

Flaying Boy, a notoriously difficult route graded 9-/9 (UIAA) in the Nočník crag, is a true test of power, technique, and mental fortitude. Located in the heart of the Czech Republic, Nočník (meaning 'Chamber Pot' - a perhaps less-than-inspiring name for such a challenging climbing area) is known for its steep, powerful climbs on bullet-hard limestone. Flaying Boy lives up to this reputation. Expect relentless sequences of small crimps, powerful underclings, and tricky footwork that demand precision and unwavering commitment. The crux section is often described as a series of dynamic moves between razor-sharp holds, requiring explosive power and a high degree of confidence. Success on Flaying Boy is a testament to dedication and a deep understanding of movement on steep rock. Sending it is a badge of honor among Czech climbers and a noteworthy achievement for any climber visiting Nočník.
