Three IFSC World Cups have already taken place this year – without Adam Ondra. The Czech makes his debut in his country's capital, Prague. Accordingly, Ondra prepares meticulously for the upcoming competition. He invited several route setters to the Jungle Sport Park bouldering hall to set up a competition simulation.
