Adam Ondra Sends Another V15 Before Kranj World Cup

Adam Ondra has climbed his 12th V15 with his recent tick of Ghost Rider in Moravsky kras. Ondra will be competing in lead world cup in Kranj this weekend, hoping to redeem himself after the world championships. He’ll be up against top climbers like Alex Megos.

This was the second ascent of Martin Stranik. “Amazing problem, lower start is waiting,” said Ondra. Prior to Ghost Rider, Ondra had climbed these V15s: Tekute Stesti, Vrtule, Drift, Krater, Asagimadara, Charon, Practice of the Wild, Pata Ledovce, Monkey Wedding, From Dirt Grows the Flowers and Big Paw. Ondra has also climbed two V16s: Gioia and Terranova.

World Cup in Kranj is coming in a few days, but is nice to be around home, train in the gym but make a short trips outdoors to Moravsky kras. Yesterday, I took the 2nd ascent of @martin.stranik Ghost Rider 8C (or 8C/C+). The ascent was filmed for RTT in the future. Picture is from a different project, also in the same realm of difficulty from not only very talented climber, but also photographer Jakub Konecny @konecnik?. You can find his pics on this account @climberbehindlens as well. @blackdiamond @lasportivagram @montura_official @mazagrande
