Climber Style Ascent Date Suggested Grade
Adam Ondra Lead | worked 3rd Sep 2017 9c
First ascent.

The first 9c in the world and a new benchmark in sport climbing. Adam spent a lot of time training specifically for the route, going as far as to strengthen his calves so he could get a better rest out of the kneebars.

Pete had a little play on the crack section to see if he could work out a sequence.
