Almost 200 climbers competed in Warsaw Euro Youth Boulder Cup

Stasa Gejo was the most superior climber and winner in the European Youth Cup in Bouldering in Warsaw. She did all the 12 boulders, including onsighting all four final problems. She has won all the five Youth comps she has entered in last two years and her worst Boulder WC result, out of three, is #9. Several coaches mentioned that it was really well-organized and that the route setting was very good. However, the new final format with rotation start was a bit strange because the late starters could watch the early starters. An interesting fact about the competition in Warsaw is also that no nation dominated and that Eastern Europe seemed to be picking up again. 97: Stasa Gejo SRB - Simon Lorenzi BEL 99: Giorgia Tesio ITA - Marcus Nimrod ISR 01: Vanda Michalkova SVK - Sam Avezou FRA

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
