Bomba 9b FA by Adam Ondra
Adam Ondra has made the FA of Bomba (9b) in Arco. He bolted it ten years ago and it is located just to the right of Trofeo dell'Adriatico 9a+ which Stefano Ghisolfi and Adam Ondra just did. "One of the most epic moments of my climbing! Very unexpected. I thought it would be 9b+, but unfortunately after only few days of work it cannot be 9b+. Very bouldery, very reachy and very crimpy. Love it! Definitely upper end of 9b in my opinion."
Video and more comments on his Insta. In total, the 29-year-old has now done 25 routes 9b to 9c, which is essentially 60 % of those that exist. The runner up on the 9b list is Stefano Ghisolfi with 10.
