Chon & Coxsey win in Innsbruck

Great show took place in Innsbruck, where we could see Shauna Coxsey winning her fourth World Cup in 2016, meanwhile the overall winner from last year, Jongwon Chon, got his first victory. Giving credit to the route setters, it should be mentioned that all 36 problems throughout the event were topped out. The Swedish national coach, Reino Horak, says that he has never been on a better organized and more exciting climbing competition where the DJ created the perfect background. - When Chongwon matched on the micro hold where other could not even hold with it one hand, the audience got crazy :) With just two events left, Shauna will become the overall champion if she makes it to the podium in one of them even if Miho Nonaka wins the last two. Among the male, at least six have chances for the overall title and in theory, actually 15 still have the possibility. Results are presented below with semi results in brackets. 1. Jongwon Chon (2) - Shauna Coxsey (6) 2. Tomoa Narasaki (5) - Janja Garnbret (5) 3. Sean McColl (1) - Miho Nonaka (2) 4. Roland Rugens (6) - Megan Mescarenas (3) 5. Dimitrii Sharafitdinov (3) - Anna Stรถhr (6) 6. Martin Stranik (4)- Akiyo Noguchi (1) 7. Sol Sa (3) Complete results (c) Eddie Fowke

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
