U.S. Bouldering Championships
By Dougald MacDonald
Hundreds of boulderers jammed The Spot and Boulder Rock Club in Boulder, Colorado, last weekend as the ABS Adult and Youth Bouldering Nationals went down. After two days of hard problems, Colorado’s own Daniel Woods, 16, was named U.S. bouldering champion, while Texan Alex Puccio, also 16, was crowned the women’s champ.
Despite arctic cold and a blackout that temporarily doused the lights at both gyms, the adult and youth U.S. bouldering teams were chosen during the three days of competition. The 2006 U.S. teams are listed below; for full results from both comps, visit www.usaclimbing.org.
The Sterling Rope/USA Climbing Adult Nationals for lead climbing and speed climbing, at which the U.S. teams will be selected, take place March 4 at MetroRock in Massachusetts. Sterling will provide $6,000 in travel stipends to adult U.S. team members during 2006.
