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.
Adam Ondra continues to use the Hanshelleren cave in Flatanger, Norway as his personal 5.15 playground, this time with the FA of Iron Curtain (5.15b). Lest you think 5.15b has become “easy” for him, he assures PlanetMountain that this is not the case:
9b (5.15b) standard for me? I wish! No, 9b is still a really hard route, certainly not something I would do in an afternoon without too much effort.
According to the same article, Ondra has multiple 5.15+ projects lined up and ready including one that is almost 200 feet long!
