EICA Fun Bouldering Competition

On Sunday 19th February I took part in the fun Bouldering Competition at EICA Ratho.
I climbed in the advanced category which had boulder problems graded V5 and above.  
All the problems were great fun and tricky!
I finished in 1st place for boys 13-16 years.

Demonstrating at YCS

I have been training really hard in preparation for the 2012 season.

I have also been demonstrating the routes at the Scotland South YCS rounds.

After the 3rd and final round held at Glasgow Climbing Wall on 18th February the new Scotland South Team was announced.
Well done to my brother, Alexander, who qualified in 2nd place for Youth A Boys.

New 45 Board

My brother, Alexander, and I got a fantastic present at Christmas - a training wall in our garage! It is great fun setting our own problems and climbing at home.
