Adam Ondra na závěr pobytu v Kanadě vylezl ještě jeden projekt, a to za 9a+. Den před tím zkoušel ještě Fight Club za 9b od Alexe Megose, ale nepustila. Teď by se Adam měl přesunout do Itálie, kde je na startovce závodu Světového poháru v obtížnosti od 27. do 28.7. v Arcu.

Poslední post na Instagramu o přelezu projektu z 9a+:

Last climbing day in Canmore was back in Echo Canyon. There was an amazing @hauonearth's project tharlt was just too tempting. I figured out the moves 2 weeks ago and today I managed to make a first ascent. I think it could be 9a+. Thank you @hauonearth for bolting this one of the Canmore's best lines and letting me try. @blackdiamond @mytendon @lasportivagram @montura_official @gardatrentino pic by @bernartwood

Fight Club 9b, který nemá zatím opakování, byl pro Adama jeden z největších cílů cesty a věnoval tomu trénink před cestou i pokusy na místě. Nicméně skála byla na začátku mokrá, a pak se musel rozhodnout, zde se bude věnovat této cestě nebo druhému projektu za 9b, cestě Disbelief 5.15b (9b), kterou po vícero pokusech přelezl (psali jsme zde: Adam Ondra přelézá nové těžké 9b v Kanadě). A poslední pokus ve Figth Clubu nepustil, a tak se na ní chce Adam někdy příště vrátit, navíc je tam možnost cestu prodloužit na 9b+. Viz:

One of the biggest goals I had for this trip @alexandermegos testpiece Fight Club 5.15b (9b). I had been training hard for this trip and this route. Then I came here and I found the route wet. I was waiting for the route to be perfectly dry, because I wanted to test myself in getting it done in as few days as possible. In the meantime, I was climbing on different routes, but most of them were bouldery and not really a style of Fight club at all. It was completely dry one week before the departure back to Europe. I tried it for 2 days, but could not do it. In the meantime, I still had another project I wanted to finish off. It was a huge dilemma, but in the end, I gave a priority to Acephale crag, and Disbelief 9b was born.  Going back to Fight Club at Raven's Crag today as day 3 on the line, I was full of hope. But I went away empty-handed. But it is line that is amazing and worth returning for, one day. On the top of that, a possible extension could make it a sure 9b+!
