Adam Ondra

About

Adam Ondra is a Czech professional rock climber, specializing in lead climbing, bouldering, and competition climbing. In 2013, Rock & Ice described Ondra as a prodigy and the leading climber of his generation. Ondra is the only male athlete to have won World Championship titles in both disciplines in the same year and is one of the two male athletes to have won the World Cup series in both disciplines. At age 13, Ondra redpointed his first graded 9a sport route. Rock & Ice noted that by 2011, he was "onsighting 5.14c's by the handful", and by 2013, had "more or less repeated every hard route in the world—easily". By end 2018, Ondra had climbed 1,550 sport routes between grades 8a and 9c, of which one was a 9c, three were 9b+, and three were onsights of 9a. Ondra is the first climber to redpoint a route with a proposed grade of 9c, the first climber to redpoint a 9b+ route, the first-ever to flash a 9a+ route, and the second ever to onsight a 9a route.
