Ondra Fighting and Falling on Project Big

Adam Ondra has been in Norways’ Flatanger cave projecting his new hard route called Project Big, a huge overhanging line. It’s the king line of the crag, and the last hard project that has not yet seen a first ascent.

Ondra bolted “Project Big” during the same period in which he bolted Silence 5.15d, one of the world’s hardest sport climb. Before he sent Silence, Ondra referred to the climb as “Project Hard”, due to it’s fierce boulder problems.

Ondra left “Project Big” for a later date as he knew the lengthy route would take a lot of time to compete. It’s possible that it’s as hard or harder than Silence. In this video, Ondra deals with far-from-perfect conditions as he links hard sections and falls from burly cruxes.
