Time for a Social Comp

15/6/2013

0 Comments

 
So on Saturday night was the ICP Social competition! The format of this comp was a head to head battle with another climber on similar technical climbs either on lead or top rope. The ICP crew did not know how the comp would go, due to this different format. It turned out to be a great!!! The kids had a great time and so did the more experienced climbers.

Lucy had to pull out of the competition due to injury. So I was climbing side by side Bo, racing against a 2 minute time limit for each climb and a competitor next to you certainly got your heart pumping! After climbing both routes back to back, times were added. I came first in the qualifiers Wooooo!!!

Finals, was completing the 2 same routes again but with the top 2 competitors. That was Issy and I!!! If you didn't know Issy and I have been training together for a while now, so we both know our strengths and weaknesses. Issy is the most static climber I know, I even push her to climb faster when we are training. So yes, speed is not her forte. We battled it out! Who won? and by how much?

ISSY and by 1 second! AMAZING :D

Special thanks to John Amsler for the photos and the ICP Crew for holding a fantastic competition.
