PlanetMountain caught up with Alex Megos after his one day ascent1 of Biographie (5.15a):

I warmed up by checking out the moves on Biographie, this took circa 1 hour. Then I started to make the attempts, and had circa 30 – 40 minutes rest between each go. Conditions were very good and my first feeling was: I’m going to send it today.

His thoughts on why he didn’t try to flash or onsight the route are interesting to read as well.

  1.  I’ve seen a lot of people refer to him having done it in three attempts, but I think it was actually four.  But who’s counting, right? ↩

→ Another 5.14d Onsight For Adam Ondra∞

Posted July 15, 2014 at 7:47 am · Comments { 0 } ·

After another disappointing finish in a Lead World Cup in Chamonix where he failed to make it out of the qualifiers due to skipping a clip on the 2nd qualifier route, Adam Ondra made his way to Gravere, Italy and onsighted TCT (5.14d):

nice satisfaction after the lost Chamonix World cup. A tribute to Tito Traversa first ascended by Stefano Ghisolfi

This marks Ondra’s 3rd 5.14d onsight, all of them coming since July 2013.
