Since the short-term goal is the Lead&nbsp;competitions and since these have a similar character to rock climbing, I took the opportunity to climb the cliff in these days.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>On Thursday I finally climbed Qui, 9a or 9a+ on the Geisterschmiedwand, first climbed by Stefan F&uuml;rst in 1996 and never repeated since! It is a difficult route that partly follows Wagnis Orange (an 8c climbed by Gerhard H&ouml;rhager in 1988, perhaps the second in the world!) To arrive at a bad rest and then continue on a really hard bouldering section.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>I tried the route the first time in 2008 and since then another ten times or so but never for two days in a row. The climb was even more special because F&uuml;rst was sure to make me safe. For the grade I think it is closer to 9a +. Although some holds have broken since the first ascent, I don&#8217;t think much has changed in the grade. &#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">news gripped.com\/adam instagram page<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adam Ondra won the first repetition of Qui, a very old route in the Austrian Tyrol of the 90s which is 9a+.
