Ghisolfi and Adamovska win in Briancon

Eliska Adamovska, who got the silver in the Euro Championship last year, won in Briancon after a great fight. Runner-up was Natalia Grossman meaning she got her seventh World Cup podium 2021.

Among the male, Stefano Ghisolfi won ahead of Dmitrii Fakirianov and Martín Stranik, after having done a remarkable save. As he failed to reach a hold, he basically pressed his hand against the wall creating compression on a huge volume.

It should be mentioned that the route setters have created possibly the most 3-D routes every creating many different solutions and drama from the beginning. One reason why nobody came close to the top, could be poor conditions due to the rain. (c) Jan Virt/IFSC
