UKC

Patxi and Jain victorious at Chuncheon

Unfortunately there was no live streaming from Chuncheon, so the only thing I can provide at this point is the results of the men's final, where the Spaniard's made a great come-back after last week's not-so-great result at Xining.

Patxi Usobiaga won ahead of Ramón Julian, Sachi Amma and Adam Ondra, who all reached the same point in the final, thus separated only by the results in the previous heats.

Among the women, Jain Kim was in a class of her own in front of her home crowd, reaching 9 holds further than Caroline Ciavaldini in 2nd place. Jain was also the only woman to top the semi-final route. Angela Eiter finished third.

Is there normally live streaming?

I think Bjorn is referring to the Bbc live climb broadcast from Scotland with Macleod and emmet, you know the ones hundreds of people are commenting about on UKC, as we speak!

Yes and no actually. There were live streaming from all the comps in the Bouldering WC and also from the Chamonix lead comp, so these (China and Korea) were the first two not to have it.
