I like how it seems that he's taking on all the classic hard routes regardless of the type of climbing. I don't think many of the previous Action Directe ascentionists also had / have the stamina to do the massive pump fests that Ondra has done. Likewise Uzogbreadboardixitrix et al don't appear to have the explosive power for routes like Action. This is amazing stuff we're seeing.
are you familiar with the work of iker pou? dave graham or christian bindhammer? i think they are pretty all round amazing climbers in pretty much all departments, like adam.
Time to switch the PC off and go climbing methinks.
Ondra is climbing better than Iker Pou, Bindhammer and Dave Graham I'm afraid. We just need to get over it and except that this kid is taking climbing to a new level.
i seriously hope he does take it to a new level and i am sure he will. the route is 17yrs old though? when he starts doing fa 9bs and up which i am sure he will then he is taking things to a new level.
