Adam Ondra and his Arco Rock Master weekend

Adam Ondra spent a great weekend in Italy, returning home to the Czech Republic not only with the third Salewa Rock Award, but also with two of the hardest routes in the area, Claudio Caffè and St. Anger.

The former is located at Terra Promessa and Adam, who sent the route second go on Saturday after a photo shoot with the journalists at Massone, considers the route to be a "very difficult 8c, or easy 8c+."

On Sunday morning he went to the nearby Eremo di San Paolo, sights set on the route first ascended by Andreas Bindhammer in April this year. Adam confirmed the grade at 8c+/9a and needed a massive... four attempts. Massive, for him!

Adam sent the route just in time to return to the Climbing Stadium and watch the final phases of the Rock Master, which he'd like to compete in next year when he turns 16. Last week Adam won his category of the Youth World Championship in Sydney... he seems truly unstoppable.
