Adam Ondra #75: Back to Italy / Little Hidden Gems

[@grobelle1]

The color grading was way better in this video compared to the last one. The colors have been very flat, so it was a little hard to see what was going on. But the contrast was a lot higher in this video, with proper blacks and whites, so thumbs up for that.

[@nicolodalmonego2785]

The "Falesia dimenticata" is the crag where I go more often. That's so cool to see it in this video and sadly I wasn't there when Adam was. I'm glad he liked it

[@mostlyimportant4212]

What a beautiful video, the cinematography really does the views justice

[@garryreed2725]

Great to see you doing the local crags Adam. I think that will inspire more people to climb in the real world.

[@fabiosuter4902]

Big Fan here Adam. thanks for all the awesome content

[@keliaXV]

Beautiful Italy 😍

[@The206Pride]

Great episode Adam! If you have enough footage, an episode about your Dawn Wall climb would be great. Even if you don’t have footage I would take just talking about it over pictures haha

[@pilotflux8005]

pretty sure there's a video on it actually, or some footage from inyerviewsb

[@flowrida1138]

@Pavel Blažek Thanks for your clarification!! I guess everybody was wondering but that certainly explains why there is no footage out there.

[@vagabundodelmundo86]

@Pavel Blažek that's really sad !!!

[@co4421]

That's one beautiful approach. So cool to see so many families and kids out there.

Micheal was very cool. I like his outlook

amazing to see Adam climbing where I just spend some days off from work as well

[@TheNails3]

Beautiful episode

[@vascoamaralgrilo]

Thanks for the episode, great!

[@irenezannier1546]

Hey Adam!! If you have the opportunity to come back to Italy you should definitely come to Trieste (Friuli Venezia Giulia). There are a lot of routes here in the nearby area and also in Slovenia. Greetings from Italy 👋👋

[@michaeldavis9954]

Thanks for the great video. It reminded me of why I fell in love with climbing way back when.

[@fabianodedo]

Your content is so damm good Adam! keep pushing!

[@marcosarubbi6490]

Semplicemente fantastico, è sempre un piacere vedere dei video di qualità e professionalità un grande saluto dall'Italia♥️ PS. Non vedo l'ora di vedere altri posti mozzafiato

[@lorenzobeimer412]

Adam you should try aldo other areas in Italy. For example in Cuneo we have something like 10 crags (one of them is Andonno) in 10 km range

[@zukokurama]

1:06 I heard this and then spent 10 minutes looking for my cat

[@elenasu7369]

Now I'm thinking why I turned down my PhD offer in Itatly and came to the States! The view is breathtaking!

Hope you were there to try Stephano’s new project !

[@frabogni3053]

I'm Italian but I keep reading subtitles ahah

[@fabiosuter4902]

haha as soon there are subs you cant not look at them

[@paulien8371]

What does that mean: without a chipped hold? Or is that the name of the route?

[@hxrlxw]

There is a chipped hold on the route which makes it easier. The grade shown is doing it without the chipped hold.

[@JasonOgasian]

There's a hold that was chipped into the wall to make the route "possible". Adam did it without this manufactured hold.

[@jakobmelchior6701]

Chipped = not natural hold. Could be drilled, chiseled or in some case even glued on. Used to be relatively normal practice when developing routes many years ago but is very frowned upon nowadays.

[@paulien8371]

@@jakobmelchior6701 aah it makes sense with the grade difference and stuff now as well!! Thanks for the clear answer!

[@awensoo]

Hey Adam! Thank you for all your inspiring videos! - Question: Can you do some sports climing in Switzerland? It's my home country, but I've only climbed in the UK where I live now. People only seem to do bouldering in Switzerland, but there are the Alps, there must be some good climbing there too!

[@schmetterling2169]

The only man ive ever seen able to rock a fedora!

[@xenonsens]

What climbing shoes does Adam climb with on La Bomba?

[@paulien8371]

How does he gets his clips back after the climb??

[@JasonOgasian]

The same way everyone else does 🤣

[@UnIxWaNnAbE]

Usually when you get to the top there’s places you put your rope through and then you rappel back down and get your draws

Adam, when you will visit Polish Jura???

Adam speaks better English than me and I’m English.

[@kcc8986]

Not hating but it's interesting In the last two videos it's shown him trying on sites while putting up the draws and he didn't do either of them first try, even tho he's onsited much higher with pre placed, I wonder if we should judge the real onsite based on what you can climb while putting up draws instead?

[@rrrents]

Are there any celebrities who actually put up their own draws on harder climbs? Even in the video of Alex Megos "accidentally onsighting" a 9a+, the quickdraws seemed to already be in place. In his other 9a routes, they were definitely in place already. Same for Margo Hayes and Mélissa Le Nevé. Seems to be standard.

[@kcc8986]

@@rrrentsno celebrities that compete on the world class arena in comps do, but you have the hard trad climbers that place the gear and clip it which to me is even more impressive than putting up draws, but no, every major first send or onsite of new grades or major routes since Wolfgangs 9a, action direct, have been done in that way. it's kinda sad that's we've lowered the status and hardness to that being consider a send.

[@rrrents]

@@kcc8986 in my mind trad is completely different and it makes sense that they have to place their own gear

[@kcc8986]

@@rrrents it is but it's still a form of free climbing so I think they should both apply to putting up your own gear matters, if it is putting in a nut/cam or putting the draw in the hanger, it makes the route harder because you have to lock off for longer and carry more weight so it makes sense that only people who do it in that fashion should be considered to say they sent that route.

[@saskatoon5699]

@@kcc8986 Elite level sports climbing is all about athleticism, hands, feet. Protection is only a necessary nuisance, no? So it only makes sense to minimize the impact of clipping the rope and focusing on the moves. In my view, if it had been feasible to extend into even higher grades by climbing top rope, it would be OK with me. Even though I agree that at lower level, leading and placing quickdraws is part of the challenge of climbing.

[@rocknazy]

You are good Bro but Alex Honnold is best. Try something solo like he did. Best of luck

[@RADLadio]

Ask Alex Hannold to do a 9a project

[@cylosgarage]

Objectively Adam is a far better climber, probably the greatest of all time. Alex has mastered the mental side of soloing but to make the argument that he is a better climber than Adam is just ignorant.

[@MauroRincon]

Alex is a very good climber and is not scared of dying, but technically Adam is a better all-around climber. Adam can really do everything well.
