Trofeo dell’Adriatico 9a+ by Adam Ondra
"Amazing line, one of the best in the grade. Great vision by David (Lama) for bolting and a lot of work by Gabri (Moroni) to clean and send it. I found a kneebar just before the crux that makes the route a bit easier, but still 9a+ for sure. The way that Gabri it did is pretty hard for 9a+ for sure! I tried it some years ago when it was still a project and totally dirty, this year I was really close to sending first day, but in the end I had to wait for another day with fresh skin and power when I did it on my first real go of the day."
