Upgrade of Unrepeated 8B(+) Boulder - The End of the World | Adam Ondra

Описание: This was my first upgrade after many years ✊ In the autumn, I went to a very small crag in Mladkov, Orlice mountains (my homeland, Czechia) with one legendary boulder 8B(+), unrepeated since 2008 by my friend and really strong climber Martin Stráník - ‪@NoonooSG‬ ✌ I think Martin was completely underestimating his strengths at that time, so he graded this amazing boulder called The End of the World (Konec světa) 8B after a few days of work. It's a pretty proud line and I couldn't wait to try it out with his brother, great climber and routesetter Štěpán Stráník.

Watch the new episode on my YouTube channel, where you'll find out, besides great climbing, that Martin is a bit crazy badass because he climbed this boulder with only 2 very small pads, using one of them and the second left aside and put his backpack on it ☝

Let me know in the comments how you liked the episode.
