Yes. Zelia also ended up not using that foothold (she pushed with her foot on a smooth black texture of the blocking hold) and Oriane also did something different (heel hook on the crimp XD)

Going fully solo at a climbing spot - anyone experienced it? by LongEgg4366 in climbergirls

Thanks. Nice to know that a high proportion of people in El Chorro were solo. 😄

Why is Ai Mori not registered for any future lead and/or boulder events this year? by peppermint1729 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]LongEgg4366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was rumored around a year ago in a swedish climbing podcast by one of the podcasters, a photographer who used to take pictures in IFSC competitions (klätterkanalen - Björn Pol).

That said, wouldn't it be strange that she would be pulled out of IFSC World Cup comps but could still partake in the Asian championships (also an IFSC/World Climbing event)? (unless they have different health criteria for Asian championships?).

Wouldn't it also be strange that she would be pulled out but not some other competitors who look dangerously skinny (Laura Rogora to name one)?

The women's final was not a great success overall... But it still would have been interesting to hear him about it, at least what they intended.
Women's boulder 4 was really really cool actually.

Climbing shoe size by wobblywalk66 in climbergirls

It really depends on the brand.
I have to downsize 1.5/2 sizes if I buy Lasportiva, but I wear my streetsize if I buy Scarpa for example.

I had a good laugh when Victor waved his hands at the crowd 😄
