Two 8c onsights by Adam Ondra

Adam Ondra has onsighted another two 8c's, Masters of the Universe in Frankenjura and Helel ben schachar in Kalkofen. In total, the 24 year old has recorded 77 onsights, 8c to 9a, and bare in mind that often he puts down his personal grades. In comparison, the runner up in this statistic has onsighted less than ten 8c and harder. The picture is from his Instragram, Naturalmente 9a+? in Camaiore, Tuscany, Italy. It could be a good reminder that just training power and endurance following a scheme is not enough. It might be a shortcut for you to instead focus on improving your flexibility and knee drop technique in order to climb harder routes.
