Once again Adam Ondra has established a route in the mid-5.15 range in the Hanshelleren cave in Flatanger, Norway, this time with the route he’s calling Move. Here’s how he describes the experience on his 8a scorecard:
9b/b+ or just HARD 9b. Took me 2 weeks and half, while feeling strong and with bomber conditions. This route was hard for me, one my hardest, though Change is probably harder to repeat, as it fits my style WAY MORE
This is the 3rd 5.15b or harder Ondra has established in Norway in the past year, and he’s now done 26 5.15’s which is…well…a world record lot.
The lack of fanfare about this send tells you everything you need to know about Adam Ondra right now. What an animal. Can’t say I’m entirely upset I won’t have to hear him scream his way up this one, though I would like to see what still challenges him these days.

I started clicking through Pavlicek’s photos. Dude knows how to use a camera. Norway looks like heaven.

There is some video footage of Adam working the route, not much screaming though. The speed speed and accuracy when he climbs is amazing.
