Scottish Youth Boulder Championships

Sunday was the first ever round of the Scottish Youth Boulder Championships. Sunday morning was the Qualifiers, it consisted of 15 boulder problems, we had 2 hours to complete them. I went round with Dylan as we agreed that we would take shot about going first. Dylan and I managed to complete the problems in 1 hour. At 3.00pm was the start of the semi final. There was no isolation, so we could watch each other. Dylan was out first then me and followed by another three. Three of us made it into the Final Dylan Me and Ruaridh. The final Boulder Prob/route was on the roof, we only Had 2minutes to complete it. I was out second to climb I managed to get over one of the tricky swinging boards then had 5 seconds to get 3 moves to the last hold, so I made a small dyno to the next hold and managed to touch it before the time was out. Then it was Dylan to climb he got to the same hold as I got to but he held it and therefor managed to get the extra point which made him win.
