17 Feb Adam Ondra 9b First Ascent

Adam Ondra has done the FA of La Capella in Siurana, Spain, a 15 meters pitch bolted on 1996 by David and Carles Brasco.
Ondra worked on the route 7 days during this trip and two days last year and sent it at the last try of the last day.
On the scorecard of 8a.nu he comments "Bearing in mind the effort, it could be 9b, but I am not sure at all. Would have been definitely 9b if I hadn’t figured out better sequence for the lower crux, as I had the sequence I had thought it would be a quick work and 9a+ but in the end I fell nine times in the higher crux… Time will tell."
On 2010 March 13th, Ondra has done the first repeat of another 9b, Golpe de Estado, opened by Chris Sharma, in El Pati, Siurana
