■Boulder World Cup 2011 report - Canmore

The Japanese Tsukuru Hori and Akiyo Noguchi conquered the gold medals in the Male and Female categories, respectively with 2 and 4 problems completed in the Finals.
In the Men's category, the Slovenian Klemen Becan continued his lucky series with the second place, while one boulder topped meant the third place for the home athlete Sean McColl.
The Austrian Anna Stöhr ranked second behind Noguchi, both topped all 4 boulders but Anna took 1 more attempt. Jain Kim (KOR) took bronze, with 3 tops.
Canmore was a unique event, 75mm of snow fell the night before the qualification and the athletes certainly relished the experience.

■Boulder World Cup 2011 report - Vienna

Anna Stöhr won her second World Cup in a row in Vienna and is leading the women's ranking after the third event with quite a margin. With the boys, the situation is a bit more complicated since Kilian Fischhuber got stuck in the qualification round. After his second place in Slovenia, Dmitry Sharafutdinov was climbing really well again and rightfully won in Vienna. Barely a week after Slovenia, the Vienna event didn't quite match that event, the stage is really too low and the audience had a hard time to watch especially the lower parts of the problems. Route setting was most good (just a bit too hard at the boys finals) with some pretty bad problems thrown in, more on that after a closer analyses...

Najboljši slovenski športni plezalci se bodo prihodnji vikend zbrali v Škofji Loki ter z atraktivnim finalom državnega prvenstva v težavnosti dostojno zaključili letošnjo več kot uspešno tekmovalno leto. Slovenija je pravzaprav ena redkih držav na svetu, kjer boji za vrh v državnem prvenstvu zahtevajo konstantno plezanje na nivoju svetovnega pokala.

V Škofji Loki se nam tako obeta nadvse zanimiv zaključek sezone, poleg napetih bojev za končne odločitve in vrhunskih plezalnih predstav pa na tekmovanju z najdaljšo tradicijo državnih prvenstev v Sloveniji lahko, kot vedno, pričakujemo tudi izredno sproščeno vzdušje. Z mikrofoni v rokah ga bosta vodila urednik Šport TV Tilen Trotovšek in domača plezalka Lučka Franko, ki je tekmovalno kariero zaključila lani.
