Water World 9a ONSIGHT | Adam Ondra

- Water World 9a, put up by Klemen Bečan, is an absolute king line of the massive cave just above the village of Osp / Mišja peč in Slovenia.
I was saving this route for an onsight try for quite some time, and after sending Zveřinec 9b+ at my home crag, I felt in really good shape, and it was time to give it a try! 9a's that are good for onsight are quite rare, so I wanted to make sure that everything was perfect to it one perfect try. Dealing with the pressure is actually quite similar to competitions, and this time I walked away with one of my proudest onsight ascents in the bag!

Imagine 'saving' a route for an onsight attempt graded 9a. Crazy
Well, I am saving all of them
for maybe when I reincarnate as adam's grandchild :D
+1 😂😂climb so easy.......
he also onsighted a 9a when he was 13 years old, so it would be time for a 9a+ onsight maybe 😀
@@SB379 That's not correct. First 9a onsight was by Megos in 2012 (Estado critico). So no, Ondra didn't onsight any 9a's at 13. He did his first 9a onsight in 2013, when he was +- 20 years old. The 9a he mentions, when he was 13, was a redpoint try.
@@SB379 He already has a 9a+ flash
In addition to being maybe the best climber of all time, you are also an incredible story teller. I really appreciate the look inside what it takes to climb these elite routes. This is quickly becoming my favorite climbing channel.
What do you mean "maybe" ? 😂😂
@@haukewiese6433 maybe because in a rock climbing gym there’s a kid who is gonna make Ondra look like a beached whale. 😂
So many styles of climbing its hard to say who is ‘the best’. Adams not the best boulderer, or soloist or ice climber or High altitude mountaineer or competition speed climber- and they are all climbing. He is certainly one of the best the planet has ever seen at what he does though.
@@wenlambotomy6231 Adam is THE best sport climber who has ever lived. There is no question about that. I‘m purely talking about sport climbing. And certainly up there with the best Boulderers.
I agree he is the best sport climber - hence why I said he is the best at what he does. Best climber though- maybe maybe not…
Imanage managing the pressure of an onsight that you have been saving for more than 15 years, and with a camera 👀 Adam, you are a legend!
I had no idea that my home country had such an impact on your climbing journey! Amazing stuff. Much love from sLOVEnia!
Misja pec is basically a home crag to some foreing climbing communities, especially Western Slovakia and South-Eastern Czech Republic, in winter even more so :)
Good Lord that drop 7:53 I would faint. Good job Adam!
Right?? Like how is there still so much slack?
@@chinescookie5642 belayer never wants to bother adam with not giving him enough slack to clip above, so there is always some especially on overhang where belayer does not see/hear climber. And with his wohooo and fall he just breaks the rope and prepare for catch.
It also looks like he didn’t bother to clip the anchor at the top and instead fell on one of the lower draws
Doesn't this hurt extremly? I mean climbing ropes are flexible but yeah
@@nomit4hd552 actually the bigger the jump, the less stress the rope receives. Stretch is distributed evenly across the rope intead of one point if it where a shorter fall
I love how he just opens up with I did my first 9a when I was 13. So casual....
It was just attempt but still crazy
He completed the other 9a at 13
Love how he says the beginning is almost a roof when it's like 5° away from being parallel with the floor
that's what a roof is, a roof is parallel to the floor :p
Do you know what roof is
@@SwainixFPV I think he's saying it's funny Ondra said "almost" a roof instead of just calling it a roof.
@@Scientist12345678910 yeah I didn't realise that
Just another day in the life of Adam onsighting 9a
Age 13...
The man be like "I saved this hard route of my favorite ever home spot for a future onsight". Were you the kind of kid that save the last chocolate of the box for later ? :) Congrats
I think a lot of successful people have great impulse control. You won’t get far if you only do the things you’d like to do at the moment.
You're such a beast ! Congratulations, this kind of climbing is just historic
Glad it says “Super Hard 9A”. Was worried it was going to be one of those easy 9A’s. That wouldn’t be impressive
I think you are the only one who can connect together 9a, onsight, and again words 😊
The leap off the top must be such a great feeling
Another day, another onsight. Amazing send Adam
Congratulations Adam! what an amazing feat not to mention an amazing video! Keep it up, you are a huge inspiration to many, like myself all over the world.
This is just insane. Awesome!
Adam you keep on proving and extending your legacy as the greatest climber, keep up the good work,we are here to support you
Man you are incredible, love watching you conquer these 9+ rated routes 🔥 keep conquering 👏🏻
What a climber. Love watching him. He's a great person allways happy.wish him all the success in the world
Such a beautiful place. Congratulations Adam
beautitful as always, thank you Adam Ondra !
Amazing! If it's in Osp, you know it's hard. Probably even harder than 9a, so great work Adam! Incredible to see!
Love this video. One of my favs so far. That spot looks rad!
Very rewarding by the sound of it. :)
Thanks for sharing.
Insane skills there without a doubt. Great climb and narration also, always good stuff keep it up 🤙🏻
Love it! Amazing job Adam 👏
Onsight is like when you go for a new belt in combat sport. Its a test of level! Amazing effort on such unimaginable level.
And the victory whip at the end. Awesome.
Beautiful climb ! You're the best
Sir! Thank You for allowing me to climb the 9a w/You‼️
I have a tremendous fear of of elevated heights. I still fill the same fear while watching you climb. With that said I feel this year is the year I break my fear . I’m starting to go to rock gym in Beckley Wva !
Thanks Man ! Stay Relaxed 👊🏻
Absolute savage.
Completely ridiculous!
I can´t imagine you being scared :) Rather worried or concerned. Amazing Adam!
Dude! Awesome job man 🤘🏻
Gg man you're literally insane
Happy World Water Day 2023!!!!! Perfect day to release this!

Huge Congrats 👏🏻

Just amazing

One hell of a victory whip!
Awesome video - looks like really unique rock features!
Great video as usual Adam. Strange, how watching you strain is relaxing for me 😊
Simply climbing genius!
Epic, that is why you are the best
Great climbing content!
Congrats! That's why they call you the GOAT.
crazy!! congrats
Awesome victory whip.
really, insane!
Good job Adam, hard stuff.
parada Adam!Klobuk dole!
Congratulations Adam.
My friend and I were there a few months ago and the locals told us you could hear Czech yelling coming from the cave a few days prior. I guess it must have been you.
“Uh oh do I hear yelling?” “It’s ok, it’s Czech yelling” “Oh ok”
Adam my dude please stop, your making us all look bad XD
Jokes aside, absolutely amazing keep up the good work and the videos.
Congrats 💪
Bravo !
amazing!
Thanks for this amazing beginners climbing guide! :D I am far from good enough, but sometimes I think the same thing like "I should save this 7a for a future flash attempt when I feel ready" and bla, but for me personally I think every try of experience is worth it. Theres enough of that grade out there. Unlike stuff like that 9a of course xD
I love your videos 💟
Great!
very inspiring! :)
Brilliant
Pure genious..Recently watching him onsight an 8b+ i bolted onsight in the dark on a headtorch and one small lamp, being the 8th x 8th grade plus of the day...is something
Legend
Legend.
YES ADAM!
very awesome
Enjoying my morning from the u.s.i luv your videos.nvr understood all the Suttle small movements that keep u on the wall.amazin
great achievment adam, amazing to watch your videos and listen to your voice descriptions!! true inspiration❤
but one little question, wouldn‘t a true onsight mean, carrying the quickdraws up yourself?
what a drop at the end !!!!!
I just got myself all set up to onsight this video 😊
This to me shows just how good of a climber Adam is. To onsight a 9a is absurd. Plain and simple. But the fact he saved it to me shows a lot of thought into giving an onsight a try.
he said once that as a kid he loved onsight and many times if he failed his 1st try he did not even attempt to do it second time
@@doposud Says it in the video too......
Nice route , also like the movie with the same name.
hero! not more to say. greets
Wow, unreal.
Beast
And here I am projecting a 7a
So strong
I cant imagine a kid would only go for onsight.. We lucky that technology let us watch this man way of life
Onsight a 9a it's insane
Oh shit.
Absolutely incredible! Adam, it would be great if you could give us an insight how you chose your "onsight" routes, what you look for, how you go about some "soft" intel (so it's still classed as onsight). I am personally looking to get to a level to onsight 7a (what you used to do 20 years ago! 🤣❤️) so these info would be mega appreciated! Ďakujem
just how? really impressive
dope
nice one
Sooo many quickdraws hanging in there
👏👏👏
This dude is spiderman, holy crap
Ok now lets move on to these 10a's you saved for later. 😂
wild.
Hey Adam please come to Nepal ❤️
What's next after flashing 9a+ and onsighting 9a? 8c+ blindfolded / no legs?
People were impressed when Adam flashed a 9a+ so he decided to onsight another 9a to prove him right
❤🎉
You should go for a FA Onsight 9a!
Guys, don't watch this video if you don't want spoilers on your 9a OS...
Ondra is a bad man, he could pry off a bottle cap with those fingers
WOW ...... 5.15a on
