2014 Bouldering Divisionals, Finals

So I helped out with Divisionals again. Today  I was a judge instead of an iso monitor, so I got to see more people climb. Being a judge consists of watching the competitors as they climb, making sure they aren’t doing anything they aren’t supposed to do (using off-route holds, flying starts* or getting beta from the crowd), and recording how far along the route they get on each attempt, which is how the competitors are scored. So it’s a little bit of an important, big deal kinda job:) But so was iso monitor, they make sure climbers are in the right place at the right time, in order, and ready to climb. Basically volunteers are the bomb. Back on topic, as I was saying yesterday, the nature of comps is making friends with everyone, and I saw a lot of the same friendly faces today that I saw yesterday. It was nice to be recognized and have those short but warm exchanges with people again. After all the judging was over there was a raffle for the volunteers in which I won a pair of evolve shoes:) I wish I could have stayed for the award ceremony to see everyone get their medals invites, but I had to say my good byes and leave early.

I judged Female B and Female A #3 for the first session and Female B and Female A #1 for the second session. Now a shout out to all the Female A and B ladies, you guys climbed awesome! Below are pictures of the routes I judged.Female B and Female A Finals #3 route

Female B and Female A Finals #1 route

Also I would like to add congratulations to everyone who placed in their respective categories and those who will be heading to Nationals in Colorado in a month or two. I have a handful of friends in that group, including the girl in the picture below. She finished all three of her routes and came in second place, she’s going to nationals! I love this girl, she’s like my little sister<3

Helen topping out* on her second route, crushin it!

* Dict.e.on.ary

flying start– when a climber doesn’t differentiate between the action of taking their feet off the ground before making the first move. (This is bad because they could be pushing off of the ground to their first move instead of only using the holds)

top out– (indoors) reaching the finish hold of a route; (outdoors) finishing the route by physically climbing on top of the rock
