Adam Ondra flashes Lexicon, E11 7a
The ascent is the hardest trad flash of all time, and took place with no prior inspection of the holds.
This week's Friday Night Video takes us to Isenfluh, Switzerland, where Adam Ondra is attempting a project originally bolted by Stephan Siegrist.
Ondra had previously attempted the project with Jakob Schubert but the pair broke a crucial crimp and resolved to come back another day after realising they had no knee pads.
The film shows the detailed process and many variables that Ondra works through to make first ascents.

Was sick in my mouth a little bit when the rope flicked up behind his leg when he was runout and red-lining above that roof.
