Olympian1010 7,470 Posted February 29, 2020 #11 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Thankfully no problems. People seemed to think it was odd that a 19 year old in a climbing gym shirt was accredited for this event Gym is by far the largest I’ve been in. Really impressive facilities. There’s a actually a good crowd already hanging out about and hour and a half before the Speed comp. The venue is quite literally next door to LAX, so if someone does have Coronavirus, we can ship their ass off hckošice, phelps and bmo 1 2 “Sport has the power to change the world.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted February 29, 2020 #12 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Got to speak with the IFSC Communications Director. I’m literally completely out of my league right now. Now, we just sitting across from each doing work. The perks of putting in hours of effort into building a good media organization I suppose. I’m so happy that I get this privilege, and I get to share it with all of you. Remember, updates will most likely be on my personal Twitter (scores, personal observations, comments). phelps 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

They’ll be in a article published too. Might publish the article first in order to make the press conferences, and other fun stuff. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted February 29, 2020 #15 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Quick, what’s the nicest way to ask a Brazilian or Spanish speaking athlete for an interview? “Sport has the power to change the world.

JoshMartini007 2,202 Posted February 29, 2020 #17 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I'm confused with the results page. The speed and bouldering results looks wrong. But is in first and on pace to win so I don't mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contreras looks good too. Aguado looks terrible. Americans are meh. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted March 1, 2020 #20 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Can confirm that she did in fact get the quota, despite two Chilean protests (Boulder and Lead from my understanding). I have no clue what those concerned, but Yip was by far the best climber today. I did manage to get an interview with her, but I don’t know how much will be usable. I got an interview with Contreras as well. Overall, I really enjoyed myself, and climbing was great. The layout of gym is really bad for those type of competition though. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
