Austin Hoyt is #1 in the Top-100 Boulder ranking
Austin Hoyt has logged 244 boulder ascents from 4C to 8C over the last 12 months. The 19-year-old is, based on the Top-100 ascents, #1 in the ranking game. Runner-up is Antoine Maire followed by Coudert Camille in third. Here is the complete ranking.
โI would say the main reason I can climb all these boulders is because of my climbing philosophy, which is maybe the simplest philosophy ever. โClimb Everythingโ, yep thatโs it haha. Even when I first started climbing I just wanted to climb it all. From classics to choss, softies to sandbagged, small to tall, it doesnโt matter to me. Maintaining that same philosophy as I continued to get stronger and stronger allowed me to really โclimb everythingโ!โ
