Ondra has done Rainshadow too according to Stemac5a

Quote from: Steve McClure
A well named route. Rainshadow also falls to Ondra despite torrential downpours. The Malham window is closing but stayed open just enough.

What impresses me too is that he's pretty canny about getting the conditions isn't he? He wasn't at Malham in the heat of April, and judging by the excellent conditons at the Tor last night, this morning will be primo for pulling on some mingin shiny crimps...

He hit Malham during the best conditions in 2010 and 2011, can't be a fluke!

I think the Total Eclipse ascent the most interesting, must be terrifying to go up there, those bolts must be pretty old.

If they're stainless they should be ok. Not every route from the 90s has knackered bolts

Maybe instinctively sensing the best conditions to crush is one of the Ondrawad's powers.  :alien:
Nice for SteMac to have the quality of Rainshadow confirmed.

That's only a concern if there's a chance you might fall off.
Ondra doesn't fall off 9a's 8)
