Second Hardest Climb of My Life | Menagerie 9b+ HARD | Adam Ondra

  • This is very possibly the second hardest redpoint of my life which I did in November 2022 ✊ It shares the crux with my old route Perlorodka (9a+ or 9b), but it does a much harder start. It is quite common that sections of certain routes can be easily over-graded, but I am quite confident that the upper crux, including very improbable moves, can be an 8B+ boulderproblem. After just having done 9a+ and taking a decent rest.
    Enjoy a brand new movie about climbing to the absolute limit! ⚡ There are a few mysterious moments when I had no clue how I stayed on the wall. And these moments are one of the things that make climbing so special for me! And let me know in the comments how you like the video.

    Honestly, aside from being among the best (if not THE best) climbers in the world, the content being produced on this channel is simply exquisite. The alien-level climbing helps, but it's the format that really cements it as THE best climbing content online. Minimal editing on the sends, super high quality footage, deep insight into the challenges from Adam himself, context around the crag / climb, supporting graphics that present just the right information. It's just Adam Ondra and his team, and then everyone else behind him.

      Every climbing channel I go on, there’s a gumby claiming it’s the “best content anywhere”! They are either just blowing smoke up the creator’s a$$ or they are not watching Adam’s channel. It’s top quality climbing, A+ narration, and professional videography! I concur.

      As a musician/composer it was also interesting to see large parts of the video unscored (without background music). It actually made it really intense and 'real'. I also feel like a lot of climbing YT channels have no fucking clue about music and they just scrape music licensing sites with whatever is free. It really ruins the videos for me if the music is badly chosen. It can bring things to life for sure but it can also ruin an intimate moment. And choosing not to have any music on a send like this might just be the right choice. It felt real. Like I was there. Great work on that!

    Adam, you're evolving. I don't necessarily mean as a climber. I mean that I see an incredible transition happening here. You're not just a climber; you're a story teller, creator, and producer. You're an artist in your own way.
    You don't just give us great climbing content. You're giving us history, insight, intrigue, and wonder. Just like how a talented filmmaker does with a movie, or author with a work of fiction.
    Keep up the astounding work!

    I'm pretty sure that one piece of rock is by far the hardest in the world at this point. In addition to the 9b+ and 9a, right below them on the exact same wall are several extremely hard boulders: Terranova (8C+), Drift (8C), Pata Ledovce (8C) and Kráter (8C). Plus the cave to the right (visible at 5:55) is home to Vrtule (8C/+).

  • @AllegraClimbingPsychologist
    @AllegraClimbingPsychologist Рік тому +33

    Finally someone talking about it!! Doing the crux of a route as interval training is such an underestimated technique!
    Helps you with:
    - confidence (your brain records that you are able to do the move rather than being the point with strongest link with failure)
    - specific power endurance (that you will need for the crux)
    - getting into the mental state of squeezing hard when you are pumped (lot of people give up much sooner that they can stand!)

I would love to see in future videos where it is a multi month or year journey like this to see a day or two of training you did specifically for the problem of the story. As an example, a problem you designed in your home gym or on a kilter board that you designed specifically to help with the route crux you are training for :).

    Love the sound quality in this video! Can hear the rubber hitting the rock, when he is breathing… Great for climbers to analyse Adam’s climbing to see what details we can learn for our own climbing!

    I don’t know anything about climbing, nor have any distinct interest in it but boy do i thoroughly enjoy watching this man climb! It’s so fascinating watching him do what he’s a master at

    That final runout was insane to add to the stress!
