9a flash by Adam Ondra

Adam Ondra goes to 102 routes 9a and harder with a second go FA of Transcription and a flash of Chromosome Y 9a in Charmey. "Amazing bouldery route which fit my style perfectly. Thanks for the beta Pirmin!" Pirmin Bertle put it up in 2012, "It starts right away with an 8B boulder with really funny, but highly complex moves in a 45° overhang. Linked by some kind of knee bar, where you never know if it is tiring you or not, follows a 7B+ traverse with delicate food moves. You arrive in a knee bar where you have to regain your forces for the final 15m 7c+. Adam has previously onsighted three 9a's and flashed one which actually stood as 9a+. The number of 8c+ routes onsighted by Adam is 15.
