Mawem and Cohaut win Euro Cup in Chambery

This past weekend, France won both of the golds at the European Cup in Chambery (FRA) with those medals going to Michael Mawem and Flavy Cohaut. Mawem is registered to compete in the first World Cup, in two weeks, in Hachioji. Somewhat surprisingly, very few other WC athletes took the opportunity to prepare before travelling to Japan, especially among females. The route setting was on point aside from the women's final where only two boulders were topped and Flavy was able to claim the win with just one top. In addition to taking the two top spots, results, France dominated the event especially in the women's category where they had six competitors in the Top-10.

1. Michael Mawem FRA 44 - Cohaut Flavy FRA 14
2. Leo Favot FRA 24 - Martina Bursikova SVK 14
3. Jack Macdougall GBR 24 - Agatha Calliet FRA 13
