  • Beckov (Slovakia) was a “fashionable” crag in the late ’80s and early ’90s. You can see this gigantic 50meter high piece of rock with a well-preserved castle on the top.
    In 1994, Tomáš Pilka, nicknamed Svišť (means marmot), bolted the whole line of this overhanging feature, starting from the obvious ledge 20meters above the ground. He gave it a provisional name Dlouhá trasa (Long way).
    Last year in June, I checked out the moves in the project. I was blown away by the beauty but could not send it anymore. I returned here after 17 months. In the meantime, Mišo Makušiniec was putting some serious effort into the project. Thanks to Mišo, the project was cleaned, chalked and ready.
    The route is now called Absolutorium 9a (first ascent), and it is definitely one of the nicest 9a’s in former Czechoslovakia (Czechia and Slovakia have been separated since 1993). Incredible to vision to bolt this thing 27 years ago.

    This is probably never going to be read by Adam or his team, but… everytime Adam uploads and I get the notification I dont rush to the video, I patiently wait for the right time of the day where I can sit back, eat some food and watch with pleasure his videos without any interruption, its a relief and escape from the hard daily basis and reality. Chills me everytime. Best climbing channel by far and its not even close.

    I love it when Adam, and other top climbers, talk about climbing in the same way the rest of us do. Usually he does it right after an ascent, or attempt, and he is in the moment. Hearing him talk about maybe falling at the end, and the people clapping etc. was the best part of the vid for me. Just being in the moment, talking about the experience.

    Czech/Solvack spirit dances with nature. Watching the approach to the rock old mate and the rockstar are in completely immersed soulfully in the rock in time and space connected as if all is one. The respect for self for colleagues for culture and advancement shines through the microphone and camera. The land and the ancestors must feel privileged to have you there. And we are privileged to witness a immortal event through the sport of climbing.

    Rici being inspired to finish his 9a project after you showed him the way, despite his age of 50, inspires people to finish their own unfinished business (not necessarily 9 grades). Thus, this is 'double inspiration'. :) Might name a route with that ... someday soon. Amazing send, Adam! :) keep inspiring contagiously!
