Ondra Pushes Bouldering To New Level
I am totally blown away with the recent news of Adam Ondra’s climbing success. He has already and will push the limits of route climbing and bouldering to new levels. Just the other day he flashed Confessions, v14 in Switzerland! This is a first for bouldering. Some may say that this climb is soft or it suited his style but this is just the beginning for him. I mean, bouldering isn’t even what he focuses his time on. He’s been too busy sending almost 30 9a routes or harder. Let me repeat, he’s sent almost 30 routes that are 5.14d or harder! Over the summer he flashed The Vice, v13 (my unfinished business) . For those who have seen The Vice or have tried it they will understand how far Adam’s ability lies, above the elite in our sport. Wow! And to add to all of this crazy stuff he just repeated Dreamtime, now v14? after the recent break.
Manu…dreaming of the send. Dreamtime, 8b+/8c
Hey…I wonder if we could still hang off the climb like this now that the hold broke?
