Adam Ondra #42: Call of the Wild - Chiroptera 9a+
Adam Ondra #42: Call of the Wild follows Adam Ondra on a rare two-day escape from competition prep as he heads to Súľov, Slovakia, to test himself on Chiroptera 9a+—a fierce conglomerate project defined by brutally small mono pockets and uncompromising movement. With the clock ticking toward Toulouse and the Olympic season ahead, it’s a focused glimpse of a climber balancing peak performance with the pull of wild rock. What makes this episode gripping is its honesty: the intensity of pulling on razor monos, the micro-adjustments that decide success or failure, and the quiet determination behind each attempt. Crisp cinematography and a tight runtime keep every moment purposeful, turning a single climb into a suspenseful story about limits, risk, and why even the best in the world keep coming back to unfinished lines.

In the last month of preparation for Toulouse, I allowed myself two days of rock climbing. The first day could be seen in the previous episode, the first ascent of Pučmeloun 8C, the second day we spent in Slovakia, in the conglomerate area Sulov. I had there in my mind particular project that is all about pulling on small mono pockets.
