Marek Holeček

Marek has been one of our top climbers for quite a few years. Since the beginning of his climbing career he has tried nearly every branch of this sport and after a while he decided to stick with the sand and mountains where not only a physical aspect is important but also (and mainly) mental one which brings that real thrill as he says. He has climbed uncountable set of sandstone routes with a need for fiber. In the mountains he has climbed couple good ones as well. Hard and prime climbs in the Alps, Patagonia, Karakoram and Himalayas. He is always trying to do prime climbs (walls and mixes) with his friends according to modern trends. So no fixes or giant expeditions. Quickly, with a minimum of equipment.   Ondra Beneš Ondrais not only an expert in climbing and making new routes on sand stone, but belongs also to top climbers in big walls. He managed multi-pitch Silbergeier 8b+ and also only third repeat of Bravo les Filles 8b in Madagascar.     Tomáš Sobotka

Tomáš Sobotka and Ondra Beneš created so called Dolní Žleb Company which represents a huge “production plant” of sandstone routes with a difficulty between VI and XIb. Their prime climbs, which can be counted in tens, strongly influenced climbing in the Elb Valley. Tomáš is not only a great prime climber but also a great climber with fibre to share. We can find on his list uncountable set of RP climbs with a difficulty from Xa to XIb. He prefers quick climbs and he likes to climb routes in OS style. In this style he has done couple Xb. On a limestone he has climbed 8b and 8a in OS style. Big walls became a great challenge for him because he is looking for new experience and practice. Every year Tomáš together with Ondra Beneš tries to search prime climbs in new areas all over the world where they can test their technique and fibre on very difficult climbs.
