Adam Ondra FAs Fantazija (9a+) and onsights two 8c’s
Fantazija (9a+): ”Just right of Umetnost. Bolted by Rajko Zajc and tried by Jernej Kruder. Easier intro into a very intense power endurance masterpiece. Tried one day with wrong beta and got quite close, next day [did it] first try. Fantastic route, but mostly if your span is at 180cm at minimum. If you are shorter, it might go but much harder.”
Kingslayer (8c): ”Hard to find a route so perfect, anywhere in the world. Not so clear for onsight, had to dig quite deep.”
Inferno do vrha (8c): ”Almost as good as Kingslayer :-D epic fight to end the day.”
