Almost perfect boulders for the youngest girls - Japan dominates

After the way too hard route setting for Youth A yesterday, the problems for the Youth B were made a bit easier which turned out almost perfect for the girls. In one group, seven topped all four problems and only seven out of 43 did not make a single top. In the other group the #6 made two tops and 16 did not do any boulder but all but one did score zones. Complete results For the boys, the boulders were a bit too hard. In one group the #2 did just two tops, 30 out of 45 did not make any top and seven scored zero bonuses. In the second group, the results were much better spread and only ten did not score any top. More great pics by Eddie Fowke Something interesting is that among the males two Japanese boys won their respectively group and for the girls, the two best Japanes were runner up in their respectively group.

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
