Adam Ondra flashes Peลกฤena ura (9a)

Adam Ondra has flashed Jernej Kruder's Peลกฤena ura (9a) in Sopota. โ€Freak moment to stick the crux move at the start! Thanks Jernej!!โ€

Jernej put it up in 2020 and he was on hand giving Adam beta, and he first showed him the dyno crux. Adam's flash was also the first repeat of this route.

"I didn't really try it, because I'm a bit injured at the moment. I forgot the exact feet, so I just tried the jumping position. He's just the best climber in the world...it's called progress. So for me, it was just incredible to watch. He said it was his second hardest flash after that 9a+.

In 2012, Ondra flashed Southern Smoke Direct (9a) and five years ago he also flashed Supercrackinette (9a+). The Czech has also flashed three 8c+'. There are four other climbers who have flashed 8c+; Alex Megos (3), Jakob Schubert, Daniel Woods and Seb Bouin.
