The intro is a little long, but this video of Adam Ondra on the first ascent of Chaxi Raxi (5.15b) is worth a look. Ondra sent the project–a 160-foot line bolted by Chris Sharma in Oliana–late last month. He called it “probably my hardest route I have ever done” and speculated that the line would be “undoubtedly 5.15c” if it weren't for a rest after the first crux.
Ondra had another success earlier this week when he repeated (5.15a) in Malham, England. The route is Ondra's seventh 5.15 this year.
