@@Myosos @Goldenbears Official I love Chris Sharma, he has been my idol for years, but he is not as good as Adam and Alex Megos. And when it comes to lead climbing only, Seb Bouin, Jakob Schubert or Stefan Ghisolfi are slightly better as well. He has been the King for years but the level is rising up so quickly...
I realize this is a pretty small thing overall, but I've always been super impressed with the efficiency of Adam's clipping. No messing around, no fumbling, just a reach and a click, and it's on to the next hold. I guess that's what decades of practice looks like.
I recently watched some lead climbing beginners, I had totally forgotten how hard clipping is for beginners. It took them ages and they often got nervous which made it even worse.
ChanmailleMan it’s an art form in itself, efficient clipping saves time and effort which reduces pump...this is the problem I currently have. I tend to get my body shape wrong when clipping so I’m using up too much energy so I’m pumped before the top!
@@MF-CLIMB It's definitely a tough skill to master. I only end up sport climbing a handful of times a year, so my on-route practice tends to be pretty limited
ChanmailleMan I lead climb indoors once a week so I’m trying to get better and not let the panic of clipping and holding myself stop me from progressing.
Northern Sends Support your weight a much as possible with your legs/feet/heels, keep your non-clipping arm straight; if you are pumped, use your clipping arm to hold your body and shake your non-clipping arm/hand as long as possible, giving you the maximum amount of strength to hold on while making the clip. It might not feel intuitive, but it is much more important to rest the non-clipping arm/hand as it takes far less strength to make a clip than to hold your body weight. This advice really helped me when I was still new to leading, hope it helps you too!
You are correct! Although the English language lacks the variety of hard expressive words, I shall do the best to translate this part for you: I'm such a dick, fucking pussy, fuck! Would probably would be a pretty close translation.
Wonderful ! Seb is a pionner of the Gorges du Verdon, one of the greatest place in France, which is by the way really full of divers landscapes and differents regions, it's wonderful. Thank you for this cool video and congratulations, outdoor is really something else than indoor artificial wall climbing, even both complete themselves
Really appreciate this episode! It's important to see a heroic figure come up short sometimes. We all know he's still Adam Ondra, and that helps us when we fail! Much appreciated!
You know i actually love that not every vid is a crazy last go send attemp and thats it. Its really refreshing and nice to see that sometimes these thing just dont work out but Adam still keeps his head up. Legend!! 👌😎🧗♂️🗻
Aiming for a flash this seriously really is something special. It requires an immense mental implication, as well as a great ability for self questionning. Indeed, it would be pretty easy, especially for a climber who's already achieved so much, not to go 100% into the ground preparation thus giving him/herself an "excuse" in case of failure. I know I sometimes do that out of laziness (shame...), but mister Ondra is showing us the way: always be true to yourself and aim as high as you can! Thank you for sharing this
"so adam asked if I could give him all the detailed information" ...he had no idea what he was getting himself into :D ondra-detailed is not the same level as everyone-else-detailed :D
Hi Adam, thanks for the effort of making all these amazing videos ! Could you make a video where you show which knots you use to tie the rope into the harness ?
🐱👤 OMG flashing a 9a+ ... Adam is Superman and maybe can switch of gravity. 💪 Without moustache nearly impossible to send. 🧔 Now I'm motivated to go to the gym. .
Recently a climbing instructor mentioned Ondra while talking about how important it is to exhale while doing a (hard) move. Here's Ondra holding his breath. Though I suppose the moves aren't that hard for him, it's only 9a+ after all.
very cool video, would love to see you two doing some more video together in the future. And I know Im not the only one waiting for strong climbers like you to go and try to repeat Beyond Integral ! haha
5:28 I'm like.. woah.. this isn't even vertical. He could just lean against the wall and rest here. Why is he in such a hurry? Then i notice the quickdraws hanging 50° from the wall.. my brain is confused.. then adjusts.. "Oh shit.. this is overhanging"
Adam, amazing climbing! Great production quality too! Random question, your necklace looks awesome!! Where can I find it to buy one like it? Thank you sir
Sorry if this is a dumb question but how are there already quickdraws on the route before you climbed it? Did someone lower off the anchor and place them ahead of time?
I assume if it worked people would be doing it but, maybe you're on to the next thing... I guess in daylight and given the distances, it wouldn't really work
Hey, Does somebody know the stone type and length of this route? My team and I do a research project in the frame of a doctoral project on the Ruhr-University-Bochum in Germany, and we try to evaluate contact-times of world elite climbers on different stone types, routes length and disciplines. Big thanks in advance for your support! With sporty regards from Germany
I like three languages in this vid are all untranslated. I mean, I didn't understand a word of the Czech, but when he fell on his flash attempt I could get the gist.
Nechci být puritán, ale mohlo se to vypípat. Adam je repre i fajn chlap a určitě k němu vzhlíží mnoho českých dětiček, tak jen kvůli nim. Jelikož se pomalu ale jistě stává legendou, minimálně u nás v ČR, tak v případě slovní úlevy ve veřejném videu to není problém, vypípat to!
Yea spotted that. I also didn't like that he didn't hold the brake strand of the grigri. IK lots of people trust them and nothing will probably go wrong, but its not much effort just to hold a bit of rope if your hand.
8a warm up, I can relate to that. I also warm up around 8am.
Damn, you're strong :p
Once I sent a route (still unrepeated), which I graded 9p(m). The route is called "Sleep a bit (m)ore". It's a very difficult boulder problem in my bedroom.
Damn you're crazy, around 8am I can't move from the rest position.
And getting mad you don't flash a 9a+... This guy is ridiculously impressive.
Hahahahahaha
"I'm not very strong at grabbing the holds"- Adam Ondra
It's not even humble at this point
he has relatively low finger strenght compared to Megos
@@megatonante but better Teknik

6:40 In Czech we don't say "I fell", we say "Jsem k*kot, fakt k*nda, p*ča, aaaaagh" and I think that’s beautiful :D
What is the literal translation of that?
@@simonwinterstein348 I'm dick literally pussy, pussy pussy aaaaaa :D (In czech language there are many words with meaning of pussy)
@@kadoSINDICATE yeah thought so^^ Didn't believe in the subtitles ;D
Haha his burst is super funny when you are Polish. Someone should make a t-shirt "Jsem kokot"
@@simonwinterstein348 The meaning is: "I'm a dick, really pussy, cunt aaghh!!" :D
"That's how the climbing is; Sometimes it's cruel, but it's a fun game"
wise words from ondra
Seb is low key, classy and definitely a pioneer and one of the best.🙂👍🏼
Two of the best climbers in the world in one video
Sharma is not here

Same energy when I can't flash a 5a
If you climb twice a week, you'll flash pretty much all 5a within a couple of months. Just keep at it!
It's amazing how adam climbs on his flash go like if he checked the route for weeks 🤯
He did. Watched videos of ascent and executed beta from it.
top athletes are monsters at visualization
cool video, its awesome that adam doesnt pretend everything its la vie en rose and puts up is failuures as much as his success! keeping it real
I have a slight suspicion that the words at 6:39 were not translated correctly for the subtitles... 🤔

La moustache qui fâche = the moustache that irritates (in french) 😆😅
Thank You! Google told me "the angry mustache" hahahaha
seb bouin is such a humble and nice guy, really cool vibes in this video!
Loved this one!! Really a huge fan of Seb, and I thought this was a well done story. I think it’s so important to show this side of climbing
Really appreciate this episode! It's important to see a heroic figure come up short sometimes. We all know he's still Adam Ondra, and that helps us when we fail! Much appreciated!
I just love how the climbing community are collaborative with each other. You can just sense this in Adam's videos.
I really appreciate Adam's honesty and humbleness!

2 of the best worldwide, the French Alps are so beautiful and dense.
You can kill this frustration next, or maybe others nexts. Thats the beauty of climbing. Never give up. Each challenge makes you stronger.
We got a small glimpse of it in 4:40 but I want to see a complete video from Adams warm up and mental preperation for this kind of attempt!

Thank you for sharing this
Wish I understood Czech to understand Adam's fine words when he falls.
Worst ones you can imagine of..
Basically genitalia in 20 variations :D
i think i understood it without even speaking Czech
turn on the subtitles
I'm a dickhead, I'm a cunt, twat... you're welcome.
Forgot how great these video's are - nice to start seeing them come through again!
That hand sequence at 5:16.
All to find the kneebar
I really love the camera angles on this one. I like being able to see Adam's grip on the rock.
Two legends together ! It's great to see Seb
8a warm up... thank you adam...
"so adam asked if I could give him all the detailed information" ...he had no idea what he was getting himself into :D ondra-detailed is not the same level as everyone-else-detailed :D
Great content. Ounce again addicted to your videos
Pour une fois, j'ai bien compris la fin 😅.... very butifull accent Seb 😅!!
Adam saying hes not strong at grabbing the holds, I get weak just watching him climb
I am going to have a rich vocabulary of Czech self-deprecating swear words thanks to Adam Ondra!
Hi Adam, thanks for the effort of making all these amazing videos ! Could you make a video where you show which knots you use to tie the rope into the harness ?
I love how you guys always include such amazing shots of your surrounding, best climbing content out there for sure!
You mean videos
Thank you for another great video!
Brilliant footage and well said dude🙏
I love how Seb pronounces Adam
These videos get better and better! Please keep up the amazing work!
Congrats Seb for redpointing this route!!!
C'est cool de vous voir dans la même vidéo !
This was my favorite episode so far! I enjoyed watching you two interact!
Too much respect in this video😍
🐱👤 OMG flashing a 9a+ ... Adam is Superman and maybe can switch of gravity. 💪
Without moustache nearly impossible to send. 🧔
Now I'm motivated to go to the gym.

Seb just suggested 9c for his latest climb DNA; that would make these two guys the only ones to have established 9c in the world.
Recently a climbing instructor mentioned Ondra while talking about how important it is to exhale while doing a (hard) move. Here's Ondra holding his breath. Though I suppose the moves aren't that hard for him, it's only 9a+ after all.
super vidéo ! merci Adam
0:38. Quality belaying as always.
2 of the strongest climbers in the world.
Great climbing, thanks!
"... But that's how the climbing is, sometimes cruel, but it's a nice game ... " >>>>> Wow, It can't be said in a nicer way.
He's human... WOW!
Joli accent Seb
What a great accent, so french.
Les français ils sont où ?
Yolo
Et les fans de Seb ils sont où ? :)

"Adam, continue de pousser l'escalade vers le haut" lmao what a pun
díky za tu realitu, kdyby všechno končilo happy endem, tak by to brzo bylo vlastně o ničem :) pošleš další
6:37 Oh man Adam ondra's little anger bursts are hilarious xD
8a warmup ....... crying intensifies !
If you turn on the subtitles when Adam falls, he says “I’m such a twat!” 😂
English subtitles would be super helpful 😊🤙
Could you maybe do a warmup vid ?
10:44 hits harder now Seb just sent the worlds second 9c
lol adam's curses
5:28 I'm like.. woah.. this isn't even vertical. He could just lean against the wall and rest here. Why is he in such a hurry? Then i notice the quickdraws hanging 50° from the wall.. my brain is confused.. then adjusts..
"Oh shit.. this is overhanging"
The front image looks so like an illustration from a children's bible!
Seb said well : « keep going because you are an inspiration ».
Mucv apperciatr this words Seb.
Tjis is how the spitit and good vibed lived on.
"I'm such a twat" is probably not the full translation.
I'd really like to know what he said ^^
1:00
My valley! I live at the base of the big mountain on the right of the picture!
Come on Adam! You can make a 9b!
You are few years too late with that...
Adam, amazing climbing! Great production quality too! Random question, your necklace looks awesome!! Where can I find it to buy one like it? Thank you sir
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sorry if this is a dumb question but how are there already quickdraws on the route before you climbed it? Did someone lower off the anchor and place them ahead of time?
Why don't climbers bring a lazer pointer to the rocks? It would make pointing out the holds much easier... is there a reason they don't do this?
I assume if it worked people would be doing it but, maybe you're on to the next thing... I guess in daylight and given the distances, it wouldn't really work
Will the shoe dance help me climb better?
Either way great video as always.
Oh hi Adam
They warm up 8a that is my actual limit!!🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣

Use the captions, they've made proper translations of everything there (as in that it's not autogenerated!).
Any one know what happen to adam right nose?
Did anyone else notice at the start when Ondra sounded like a reloading gun
It makes me sad seeing Adam beat himself up when he messes up.
Ahoj Adame, nechtěl by jsi vyzvat Anabolic Horse na uchop? Byla by to sranda a mělo by to hodně zhlédnutí a představilo tě širší veřejnosti.

The French guy is super sympathetic, but why doesn't he speak English?
4:10 two clips, two knee bars
MDR la moustache qui fache
Anyone else get annoyed by the draw that was clipped the wrong way?
