The day proceeded with the male sync bouldering comp, where the “cleaning-your-partner’s-hold” game between the Italian Michele Caminati and the French Ludovic Larance kept the humor high and loosened up the competitive atmosphere. First up came Daniel Andrada, master of overhangs, who flashed problems one and two, but who was eliminated on the number three face-smearing problem. Also eliminated on problem three, Italians Michele Caminati and the Italian national bouldering champ, Lucas Preti. Last year’s Arco bouldering champ, Kilian Fishuber from Austria, didn’t make it to the final round as well, falling on the third problem and leaving his spot to Tomas Oleksy, the speed champion who ended up second, followed by the humorous Ludovic Laurance, whose strength more than made up for his sloppy style and earned him a never-expected third place. First place went to the Rock Master bouldering series winner Nalle Hukkataival of Finland, whose unbreakable concentration and unresponsiveness to the public’s greetings brought him to flash three problems. He finally decided to show us a smile, once proclaimed first overall – Hip, Hip, Hooray!
The day ended on a joyful note with the now-customary Ennio Lattisi Trophy, a "Duel" of mixed Difficulty and Speed events between the top four climbers of the Rock Master. The women’s scene was again dominated by Sandrine Levet, who gained first place over teammate Charlotte Durif, while the Austrian Katharina Sauwein overthrew teammate Angela Eiter and ended up third. The men’s "Duel" was instead conquered by Tomasz Mrazek, who stole first place from Ramonet, leaving Jorg Verhoeven third, and Flavio Crespi fourth.
