Another 5.14c Onsight For Adam Ondra

Posted April 23, 2012 at 2:02 pm · Comments { 1 } ·

Adam Ondra is up to his old tricks, onsighting a 5.14c¹ and doing the FA of a 5.14d according to this update he put together for PlanetMountain. But what is perhaps most interesting is his revelation in an interview with 8a.nu that he was only recently able to complete his first one arm pull-up. Multiple 5.14c onsights and 5.15b redpoints, repeats of several boulders in the V15-16 range and only now does he have the strength to pull off a one arm.

Footage of Gabriele Moroni on the FA of that line can be seen here ↩

Keeping Up With The Kids

Not long after her 10-year-old daughter Brooke redpointed the climb, Robyn Erbesfield-Raboutou also repeated God’s Own Stone (5.14a) in the Red River Gorge. Rock & Ice caught up with the almost 49-year-old young Raboutou to learn more about her continued success and what it’s like sharing projects with her kids.

Lacking Vision

Interesting thoughts from LT11’s Jordan Shipman as he reflects on feedback gleaned from their coverage of 2012 SCS Nationals:

Based on my experience in the industry, it seems to me these companies have demonstrated little to no interest in supporting these professional-scale events. The desire to invest in the future of our sport is marginal at best.
