Sean McColl & Jain Kim win in Kranj

Three weeks ago, Sean McColl was #2 in Valence and since then he has done some eight boulders 8A+ to 8C in Switzerland as a preperation for Kranj where he won. So this is the new trick? "I'm not sure if its a trick, but I'm not stressed at all, and sending lines outside is perfect for my mental aspect. I feel the strongest I've felt in my whole life which is so important while competing." Jain Kim at Facebook: "I got it!!! It was almost complete to top! so close!! But I had a lot of fun today! Thank you everyone!! I wanna keep going." 1. Sean McColl CAN - Jain Kim KOR 2.Sachi Amma JPN - Mina Markovic SLO 3. Jakob Schubert AUT - Katharina Posch AUT Complete results
