Keyword: Adam Ondra

The 19-year-old Italian Giorgio Tomatis secures one of the rare ascents of Lapsus, Italy's first 9b route, in Andonno. The route first climbed by Stefano Ghisolfi in 2015 has so far been repeated by climbing greats such as Adam Ondra, Marcello Bombardi and Jonathan Siegrist.

Yesterday Adam Ondra made the first ascent of Zvěřinec (9b +) in the Moravian Karst climbing area in the Czech Republic. According to his own statements, it is the most difficult route of his life after Silence (9c) - and that means something.

The two top climbers Stefano Ghisolfi and Laura Rogora drill a new sport climbing route. Is that okay?

In the northwest of the Czech Republic, Adam Ondra swaps the highest levels of difficulty for daring climbing with long runouts and strict ethics. Together with the sandstone legend Tomáš "Tomajda" Sobotka he succeeds in the ground-up first ascent of Falling into Presence (8b).

They're young, they're strong, and they're climbing at a level that would have been unimaginable not too long ago. One representative of this new generation of climbers is 13-year-old Andrea Chelleris, who recently climbed his second 9a route with Martin krpan.

Emil Abrahamsson has created an exciting comparison video showing Adam Ondra and Stefano Ghisolfi on the world's most difficult route. The Swedish climber has divided the 9c route Silence into individual sections and compares the beta of the two climbing greats Ondra and Ghisolfi.

Stefano Ghisolfi has been tirelessly projecting Silence, the world's first 9c route, for the past few weeks. In order not to return home from Flatanger completely empty-handed, the strong Italian finally picked out a small side project: Move Hard (9b).

In his adopted home of Arco, Adam Ondra did what he loves to do and is also best at: onsight climbing. There are numerous hard routes in the Covolo sector, including Silvio Reffo's first ascent of La Musa (9a) or Guerriero Del Futoro (9a). You can see in the video whether the strong Czech was successful in his project.
