<b>9a by Adam Ondra</b>

Brano Goga reports that Adam Ondra, 13, has climbed Martin Krpan, 9a in Misja Pec! This was his first 9a and Adam also managed to onsight his 8th 8b this year. Adam is #3 in the senior world ranking and probably the best 13-year-old athlete in the world. Says Adam: "The route starts right of "Sonce v oceh" and goes through "Pingvin" to "Marjetica". Till here it's around 8b. Now without any rest comes the crux with bad clipping quickdraw and then some 10 meters of "Missing drink" (from the start of the crux to the top it is about 8c). Most tries finished in that crux, just once I fell in "Missing drink". In the following try I did it. I started trying it 14 days ago, when I was there 3 days. And this trip I was there two days."
