Video: Adam Ondra flashes 8b-Boulder Hloubka Ostroti

Shortly before the first IFSC competition of the 2021 season, Adam Ondra drove to the Babi Lom area, where he succeeded in the flash ascent of the 8b boulder Hloubka Ostroti.

Adam Ondra mostly focuses on indoor training with a view to the Summer Olympics. But very close to his home there is the Babi Lom bouldering area that he visited briefly. His goal was an 8b flash ascent of a boulder, the Martin Stranik first begun.

True to the motto “No sooner said than done”, he climbed Adam the boulder too flash and got another difficult boulder on the second attempt.
