Well, as I kind of started outdoor bouldering here in Font, and its stories and boulders shaped my perspective on it, i always wished to climb this unnelivable perfect line. boulders like these kept me addicted to the sport and are kind of my source of motivation to keep going. :-) nice to see that keeping your passion alive is leading to progress.

Here is a list that was created in order to try to show how superior Adam Ondra is when it comes to ascents 9a and harder. The index is based on 9a = 1 point, 9a+ = 3 points, 9b = 6 points and 9b+ = 10 points. Picture from the Bouldering World Championship 2014, which Adam won. 226 Adam Ondra 92 Chris Sharma 69 Ramon Julian Puigblanque 66 Alex Megos 43 Dani Andrada Amazingly, when it comes to onsight, the 23-year-old Czech is much more superior. Given the same score for onsight 8b+ to 9a, Adam would reach some 300 points and the runner-up would possibly have 30 points. Add to that that no top climber gives more personal grades.

Alan Levier, who won one WC last year, reports on Facebook that he has done the FA of Satan i Helvete 8B after the break of a hold and suggests 8C. He also says that the sit start is another new level project alongside The Big Island assis.
