I believe gecko_girl is referring to the Youth Worlds, being held this year in Edinborough, Scotland. You must be 14 years old to compete and qualify through your country's Nationals.

Gecko_girl, are your initials TH? I think I know who you are; I was one of the judges at Nationals in Sacramento. You will get to Worlds next year. :wink:

Just one of the judges standing down on the floor and filling in scorecards for the Juniors. I was Head Judge for the Adult finals though.

i am

i made it for speed and missed out on difficulty by .07 to simon benkert. it kinda sucked that it was that close, but who cares. speed climbing is a little bit more relaxed and wont be as stressful.

Edge would be the old fat one - as opposed to the handsome old one with a broken leg.

This weekend is roughly the 29th anniversary of my one and only ascent of Vertigo - those were the days - attacking the Half Moon with a #11 hex. I made it but it was pretty exciting for a few seconds when I decided to switch from right side in to left.

I am still hobbling pretty badly - get some CT scan results next week although the old school orthopedic that I got through my cheapo health insurance is pushing me to get an ankle fusion. Not going to happen for awhile. If I pick just the right climb (no small feet or high steps to the right) I can still sort of climb. Enough whining.

The kids are amped up to go to Jayme's comp Friday night (or Nika is anyway - she is always figuring the odds and if Meg can't get there then she'll think she has a better shot. Maybe I should send Zeb or Vasya to fetch Meg down to it - that would steam Nika).

Might try to hobble up to Rumney on Sunday - I can do a few things there or at least keep the dog company and hold the rope for the kids.
