hey Adam - fun fact my dad and his mates Trad climbed up some of the castle rock so they could hang a banner for a protest. so its not completely neglected :)
@@MusicScala I recalled reading in the old Lowland outcrops guide about a route up castle rock (an E2) where the ascentionists were 'promptly arrested upon completion of the climb' - thought it might have referred to the same ascent you described.
@@KingMrColin well when they started a cop tied to arrest them, yanked on the rope and all. he was told he would kill them if he pulled the rope. as the cop was getting superiors he legged it up after his mate. i don't really remember if they were arrested but the defiantly weren't charged and they got on the local news because of it. mate 1: *big political rant* mate 2: "did it for a laugh" guess who's interview was used...
Imagine just walking around and bumping into Adam Ondra... Must have made that guys day, and to appear in the vlog too. He'll be telling that story to his great grandkids
"Note: this episode includes lots of climbing." ...well, this is why I am here :D Glad, that they let you film the climbing, makes the videos always so much better.
What a superb video that really captured the atmosphere of the event and showed EICA: Ratho off to its best. It was such a pleasure to watch you climb and I'm so glad you finally achieved your goal of winning this European Champs
Fun fact Adam. Lindsay Jarrett, diagnosed with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, climbed up the rock in 2014 and placed a huge "Yes" sign up there. Alba gu bràth!
Hi man! Are you still in Edinburgh? I want to see you climbing and shake your hand haha I usually go to Alien Block to climg in the city centre. Nice to see some top ppl coming to this city ;D
Hey Adam, how many languages do you speak in total? I always get so confused whenever I see you speaking Italian then Czech then English. Just wondering cause your pretty smart to know three languages. Thanks
Currently living in Norway, always interesting and also strange to see that there are no scandinavic pro-climbers around anywhere in these competitions. There are so many perfect places to climb out in nature here, so many climbers come to Norway just to train, but few are actually competing on this level. Always strange to see.
Tip to the editor/post production: don't use warp stabilizer, but rather a linear stabilizer to avoid all the "wobbling" of the images. It really kills the quality for other film people, hehe!

They all get arrested?
KingMrColin its Not america, not every country arrests their citizens immediately ;)

The greatest climber who has ever lived? Yes, without a doubt. And also just a kind human being

Nice to see more climbing in the video. That sideways jump in a lead route was LAME!
Woohoo!
Hey Adam! Have you looked at Burden of Dreams sent by Nalle, or do you not have any interest in the boulder? Just curious

красавец!!!!
Hey Adam, how many languages do you speak in total? I always get so confused whenever I see you speaking Italian then Czech then English. Just wondering cause your pretty smart to know three languages. Thanks
i think its like 5-6. english, czech, french, italian, and maybe spanish i think?
and you can count Slovak and Polish in too. Also, he speaks German too
7:37 plays to the crowd, crazy.
Lucka Rakovec is pretty much in every episode :D
Pavel Blažek me too!
Lol what happened to jacob??

Tina Johnsen from Norway made it to women lead finals.
@@art2bad Thanks for the notice, didn't know that!
I’ve always wondered what the routes are rated in competition like this.
Luke Heironimus id guess 7a-c-ish, what do you reckon?
@@AW-po7jr For sure you mean 8a-c?
Definitely not 7a
RANDOM GUY from the video, comment here :D!
wait you are the random guy?
@@TheXeeman No, I'm just asking the random guy to comment here, so that we know he really watches Road to Tokyo regularly :D.
@@pavelbelik6174 good point :D
Adam really pwned them all this time
Can you come to Passau
Great video but please dont use digital stabilizatoion
iam sweating so much in those videos 😅🤘🏼
I was in Edinburgh last week with school
Adam, where can I find out where you are competing next!? I am in Europe for 5 months and would love to see in person!!
Ifsc website has a calender for climbing events, I think they also provide a startlist upfront. Worth checking out I think
5:41 Nimrod Marcus.... That's an unfortunate name
dude, came here to comment that X'D
The flag is worst..
Please, go team up with Ghisolfi for the King route
Awesome Adam! I root for you more than for my own country (Jakob Schubert).
gz!
Come back soon!
Adam and Alberto both have the same eyebrow scar
What is the Olympic qualifier status?
@MetraMan09 He did not qualify at the first qualifying event, but he can still qualify at future qualifying events (next one is in november)
@MetraMan09 no
MetraMan09 there’s more than one qualifying event man
giving them whiskey LOL
Buena cruck
‘sadly neglected’ this man just destroyed all of scotland 😰
Adam probably walks around towns/cities he’s never been to and looks for things to climb ahah
