Puccio and Coleman win great show in Nationals
Alex Puccio took her eleventh win in the USA Bouldering Nationals by beating Ashima Shiraishi with 9.7 points. They did the same number of tops but Alex controlled two more zones. Brooke Raboutou did the same number of zones as Ashima but had used two more tries. If they would have used the IFSC scoring actually Ashima would have won and Alex would have been third!
IFSC scoring (USA scoring) 1. Ashima Shiraishi 2T2 4b4 (70), 2. Brooke Raboutou 2T4 4b4 (69.8) 3. Alex Puccio 2T6 4b4 (79.6).
Among the male Nathaniel Coleman, #4 in the Boulder WC 2015, won his third title with the perfect score 100 points meaning he topped all four problems. Sean Bailay was second at 99.6 and Drew Ruana third by 98.6. Complete results (c) Eddie Fowke

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs 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.
