IFSC Paraclimbing World Cup, London

 West Way Leisure Centre
My first International competition took place this w/e.

I was really pleased with my performance. I came third. In the final I achieved the same as the man who took second place, but the position was decided by taking into account the qualifier climbs. The man managed to touch an extra hold. It was that close!!! 

In the final all 3 of us came off at the same section. The final route was 6C-7B+, 12metres (according to route setter). It seemed higher!

 Bronze medal

                      Nicholas (France) 1st, Simone (Italy) 2nd, John (GB) 3rd
