Domen Škofic focus on enjoyment makes him #1

Domen Škofic was in the Top-4 in the last four WC in 2014 and then he did his first 9a+, Papichulo. After training very hard this year, he started out being #9 in the European Championship and continued with somewhat disappointing results in the first four WCs: 9 - 9 - 3 - 7. In the last comp in Puurs, he topped out all the four routes. ©Vincent Lescaut How can you explain the great progress? I was in great shape all the time this year, in much better than last year but I think the expectations killed me in the start of the season and then I relaxed again, didn't care and just started to enjoy climbing again. How will you prepare before the last WCs and how to deal with expectation now? I will train on as I did up until now and I have no expectations for the last two stages. I just want to be relaxed and enjoy climbing in the comps! Expectations killed me in the start of the season so I don't want it to happen again! I love outdoors and I think if the weather will be fine I will go in the rock for few days.
