Adam Ondra - a few forgotten 9a routes..., 4 kbA short video of Adam Ondra has just been released online from Bernartwood - the maker of the Adam Ondra film The Wizard's Apprentice.

There's some awesome climbing footage of Adam here, and of special note is Adam climbing his local 9a first ascent - Tanec Kuratek (dancing chicken), which is a 9a chimney/bridging exercise!

The way he climbs the 'mere 9a' is absolutely extraordinary. Is there really anybody else in the world who can climb quite like this?

In reply to UKC News: after the last 9a+ he was 'a little pumped' ?!

That route makes the Quarryman look like a sane undertaking!

By climbing 9b+
Is she the same one as in the "Change" video?

Forget it. However little beer you drunk, you'd never get her to belay you.

Great video.
The section around 12.00-14.00 is some of the most awesome climbing I've ever seen; he's so fluid and precise.

I love his feeble attempt at modesty: "No, I got a little pumped..."
