Adam Ondra wins La Sportiva Legends Only 2014

© Björn Pohl

Adam Ondra has won the 4th edition of La Sportiva Legends Only at Klättercentret in Stockholm, Sweden.

Though it's difficult to compare the always very strong line-ups at this event, this was probably the best ever but in the end no one could really challenge Mr Ondra who completed the all five problems in the ~8A - 8B+ range in only six tries.

Runner up, Alex Megos got two tops being heartbreakingly close on two more problems, failing to match the finishing hold on the first and touching it on the second.

Results:
1. Adam Ondra, CZE
2. Alex Megos, GER
3. Jan Hojer, GER
4. Jimmy Webb, USA
5. Daniel Woods, USA
6. Jernej Kruder, SLO

Unfortunately Jimmy Webb injured a finger when attempting the final problem after the competition was over. Let's hope for a speedy recovery!

If you haven't already, I suggest you watch the video and let Sean McColl and Matilda Söderlund guide you through the competition. Expert commentator is Stefan Eklund.

Enjoy!

La Sportiva Legends Only is sponsored by: La Sportiva, Klättercentret, Buff, Rokodromo, Psyco Art Holds, Entre-Prises, Climbskin, Organic Food Bar, Clif Bar, Black Diamond and Aloma Naprapati.

That's the most annoying commentary I've ever heard.

So Jimmy Webb trims his beard and then gets a finger injury. Coincidence, I don't think so...

Minor grumble (again) - can results (i.e. winners) from competitions not be put in the headlines? Was planning to watch this tonight, but I now know who won which massively removes the tension.
1 Dec, 2014
Totally agree here. I was fortunate enough to watch it before I saw the headline but it wouldn't be the first time UKC have spoiled things.

Yes, it would be better if the headline simply said "La Sportiva Legends Only 2014 Results". Perhaps UKC could adopt this as a policy for comp results? It would make life easier for a lot of people.
