Adam Ondra, the 15-year-old Czech who has already completed nine F9a or harder routes, added perhaps the first and most famous to his resume this week: Action Directe in Germany's Frankenjura. On May 19, Ondra redpointed the classic Wolfgang Güllich testpiece, characterized by dynamic moves between tiny limestone pockets.
In reply to Toreador: Seeing the action photos makes it seem so much less unearthly than a piece of text next to that spindly 'Harry Potter' photo UKC has used a couple of times.
Isn't this a bit out of season for the Jura too? Isn't Action nromally done in October? I guess it's nearer to Prague than to London, but hey, a good steal nonetheless.
