Directa Bongada 9a | Commented climb by Adam Ondra | Margalef, Spain

[@MiguelClimbs]

The production quality of these videos is the new gold standard for climbing videos. Great job to everyone involved, including Adam haha.

[@briansk6325]

Indeed

[@hw7089]

So true

[@samhparker]

Amen brother

[@cook_and_climb]

you took the words out of my mouth!

[@AB-fh9zh]

Absolutely top notch

[@verbalwound5874]

Adam: "mentally I felt great I was in a perfect flow." Also Adam: URGhhhhh ARGhhh Arkhhh

[@briansk6325]

Good one

[@TheSoteriologist]

Exactly my thoughts. But it's first vs. second/third person.

[@susanjane4784]

I suspect the rest of us only feel the unthinking flow when we sleep and for many, the sounds of our labor is snoring.

[@PhilWaaaza]

You killed me hahaha

[@jStoeh]

@@susanjane4784 damn, Jane

[@brunoganem1212]

no music, pure climbing, Adam's explanation of the route over it! Loved this format

[@briansk6325]

Dude adam, you are helping me out soooo much in the quarantine. When you upload its a spark of joy. Keep up the great work

[@matenw.9530]

I like how he said the word "Silence" right when he was hanging from his kneebar, that looked like from the kneebar in silence.

Sunsets are always magical moments. It's cool hearing how it also positively affects your flow and mental state while climbing! Great job Adam

[@benivan3561]

The only dislike is probably from the 9A, because Adam made it look too easy..

[@mrmoorash]

didn't look easy at all.

[@rogersleep]

Amazing, what a pleasure watching your videos

[@pirminborer625]

So beautiful and what a flow of Adam! So nice to see him climb when the route and conditions suit him. Bravo!

[@jStoeh]

Love it Ondra. Thanks for bringing us along to feel this moment with you.

[@parishoffice6769]

I love the poetic way you describe your feelings, and the technical way you describe your climbing.

[@carlswenson5403]

Shout out to your belayer. Great rope skills

[@vincentsteinmetz3726]

Hello adam, i really love this format, when you explain about the climb. It is a big chance to get into your journey :)

[@capojam]

This is an amazing videos. Hard for me to say what exactly but it is just beautifully meditative.

[@akselkjeldsen7186]

Your videos are so inspiring, keep it up Adam!

[@Hitman2679]

There are some amazing rock climbing routes in Zimbabwe. The scene there is huge. There is a guy gosmaphenineh bogbatsu who everyone says could be better than anyone in the world

[@gerlee04]

Another word: S-t-u-n-n-i-n-g-!

[@cloud9camper790]

Golden hour ascents are stunning with you performing your artwork. I think your narration and the drone footage has taken climbing documentation to another level ❤️👀🦅

[@peoples126]

Excellent Excellent Excellent

[@kit1351]

Breathtaking

[@Davidstreetboard]

Amazing

[@gerlee04]

One word: A-m-a-z-i-n-g-!

[@rasikopasa8250]

Simplemente brutal¡¡¡

[@samcole1759]

Amazing commentary and of course climbing

[@duncanedelstein6553]

Belaying Adam is an extreme sport.

[@michaelzwiener395]

in each sport, the flow is the magic, we are all chasing. Nice that you got it there.

[@grace3118]

I think Adam’s belayer needs more recognition in these vids...

[@tseben01]

It is alot more enjoyable listening Adam's review the route than only watching he climb.

[@oldi6btm6t9d4]

When there's too much sun on the rock, I'm not only sweating, but I can't see the small features of the wall.

[@arimasson]

Thank you for sharing Adam. Beautiful. In Ton Sai everyone goes to the beach for sunset and it's the perfect time for a climb. We call it Hour of Power. :)

[@TrackpadProductions]

Huh... something really funky going on with the live audio... the drone, maybe?

[@195dht6]

Come to climb in Switzerland to Saint-loup , there are routes in 9a and one 9b

[@BeGravity4]

Lovely

[@hannesbluemer6497]

U killing it

[@sightfire]

This commentary is gold

[@IAmSaveRio]

Exquisite video. Climbing's the only time my mind completely shuts up as well, lovely feeling.

[@Sp0nge5]

Guys, you should sell helmets with Adam's afro as merch!

[@huretjerome2082]

Everybody: *silence* Adam Ondra: "There is a kneebar in this finger pocket and I will use it to get enough power to send the route hopefully"

[@escaladaseguraamimanera3621]

hi boys, thanks for the video, i have enjoied it, you are all awesome. thanks specially to Adam

[@stephenr80]

adam and the guys from mellow are setting the standards for climbing videos, and yet there are still so many bad videos from pros that do not seem to understand what we all want....

[@aidanloeser4890]

stefano ghisolfi does a great job at this.

[@MF-CLIMB]

Dude

[@elenasu7369]

You make me love this moment too 😃 Really nice video!! Hope I can climb at those beautiful crags in Europe some day : )

[@S.Wieland]

I would have liked it if you'd have gone on explaining the moves over the crux of the "second part". But great vid otherwise!

[@jakubmudrak318]

tak já nevám, čekal jsem že sleduji českého borce a videa už jsou pořád jen v angličtině.... škoda že kvůli popularitě se zapomína na rodný jazyk,,, jinak ondro, jde to namluvit i v češtině a přidat tam anglické titulky ;-)

[@thewateringwiz7118]

Awesome video ! The beginning looked hard as nails !

[@pavelbelik6174]

I suspect these commented high quality videos will make flashing a route much easier for the next generation.

[@QuelPAZZOdiPLUTO]

Best format ever to understand what a top level climber thinks while he's doing supernatural routes

[@jdev_fr]

Really enjoying you commenting that climb. Amazing video quality too

[@FIRST465]

You are so amazing

[@jaroslavkopal721]

👍

[@timothymaupate2912]

5:03 how did you film all this part ? with a drone ?

[@OscarTurmine]

I always see them being lowered down at the end - do they clean the routes later? Doesn't that mean they have to... get back up there again?

[@mitchellbabiuk1157]

Usually routes this hard and steep have permanently fixed draws because they would be so difficult to clean on lower.

[@OscarTurmine]

@@mitchellbabiuk1157 ah cool, cheers for the info :)

[@taghazog]

7c+, yeah Adam, i agree, it's pretty easy xD

[@sschmidtfilms]

I really wanted to see some super long lens, like 400mm close up slomo shots of those pockets so bad. Give us those extreme close up insert shots so we can see how rough those holds are.

[@gigglysamentz2021]

Great script, great editing, great climbing!

[@ferrells0987]

lovely edit

[@FrLawRE]

I'm not a climber myself so I don't know anything about climbing That's why I am going to ask, if Adam Ondra finds this climb difficult with all the bolts or whatever they're called already in place one wonders who put those things there and how on earth did he manage to?

[@kecoproductions]

Usually, they rappel in from the top and use hooks and such to hold themselves in place while they drill holes and install the bolts and permadraws

[@PaoloCaglioLMT]

Adam I noticed that lately you are using the female version (lower volume?) of the La Sportiva Solution shoes: could you explain why and if you also changed size compared to what you explained in #17: The Alchemy of Climbing Shoes? Thank you

[@radinoo]

Spoiler alert: there is a kneebar in the video :)

[@FallLineJP]

Beautiful climb and a great video!

Alee alee...

[@Amatteus]

just amazing. Love it.

[@haydencombs1691]

Super Ultra Mega Classic. These videos are incredibly inspiring for young folk like myself, thanks Adam!

[@oliolo746]

Amazing video as always. Really enjoy this commentary style format. Something that has always interested me is how are all the quickdraw placed in advance?

[@juliarosa8035]

OMG this route, your climbing skills and the sunset time combined with a great shooting team = PERFECT!

[@TheMallucka]

just beautiful . thanks for that. greadings from Löbejün. hope to see you at the deep water climbing, it´s so mutch fun

[@nick16693]

Every time I watch one of your videos, I can't help but "feel" the sensetions you describe. Kudos for the perfect mix of real climbing passion and great editing that makes it possible to live these experiences with you.

[@johnthomas4790]

Do you have any plans to try any more big walls? The speed with which you sent the dawn wall is mind boggling. Can’t help but think what amazing FA’s you could put up.

[@jassanhoeckle4708]

One of your best videos Adam !

[@mhbakke]

Great video - pure climbing and comments! Looking forward to more of these. Keep up the good work!

[@fredericp64]

Speaking of ''flow'' - I didn't feel the video begin, nor did I feel it end. Masterpiece!

[@whatfffd]

This production is superb. Love your voice over, explaining the climb.

[@bradfordhullford]

The comment at the end about enjoying the moment was very moving. I often find myself wishing I could go back and enjoy certain moments of climbing again, but that's what makes them so special

[@matthewbowers88]

An inspiration. I only heard of Adam last year, it's been really fun watching his content.

[@setadoon]

Great climb, perfect video. I am loving the format of these. Wonderful, inspiring words as well.

[@lukerepass7427]

This was absolutely beautiful.

[@매지기-g7u]

I suddenly noticed that i was just watching the movie without any thought like meditation. thank you! It was enjoyable.

[@pastrop2003]

Such a beautiful video, both climbing, and videography are amazing!

[@TristanCleveland]

That was gorgeous.

[@TheNails3]

Beautiful video - love what you said Adam about the day turning into night being a magical time and a time when you can get into the flow, it's your time 👍

[@nakedperezboto7828]

Desde caralunyaaaa fotli!

[@benivan3561]

Incredible performance by Adam, also have to add that this video is by far the best quality! Congrats for the leader and the team behind him!

[@mikeyvon23]

I wish Alex Megos and co were making this quality of film.

[@casperras]

Love these style of vids

[@andulasis6283]

These videos really lets us all be a part of it! So beautiful, thanks Adam and the Team of Ondra :)

[@alexanderwoehrleitner1158]

.. and then you catch the swing.. like in inhumane assortment of crazy trained muscle

[@xxcrankflipxx716]

still trying to figure out a way to hit like more than once.. :D Love the video!!

[@donovancoetzee7237]

Some of the more natural looking climbing I have seen in a recent video, very well done Adam!

[@williambloom350]

Do a video with Magnus!!!

[@jbradbury2]

Not just a great climber but great narrator too! Beautifully climbed.

[@ivan_patio]

no words, it's incredible amazing job

[@holmes1334]

Love this style of video. With Adam talking over the route. Awesome love to see more like that
