More focus on onsight/flashes

During the last years, the redpoint level has gone up significantly meanwhile the onsight level for both routes as well as the flash level for boulders have dropped. Especially for the kids, it is important to challenge yourself with onsights. We will try to get more onsights and flashes in the news. Remember that the success recipe for Adam Ondra was from the beginning onsights. In his first-ever interview being 11-years-old, he said, "I always try to climb as many routes of the grade OS (now, it is 8b). I usually don't try harder things for a long time."

Here are the last 12 months Top-50 ranking; Routes and Boulders
1. Solveig Korherr 54 746 points - Troy Fauteux 42 883
2. Moritz Welt 54 092 - Jesรบs Muรฑoz Vaquero 41 100
3. Maho Normand (15) 52 641 - Maximilian Lenz (18) 39 450

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
