Angy told UKC about the route: 'It demands power endurance. It goes through the big roof and ends with two big moves at the edge of the roof. At first, this sequence felt impossible for me (size 1.54 cm) but then I had a good beta that worked for me.'

Good effort.

Amazing effort..

This further evidence that there is no need to gender split competitive climbing? But instead do it on a physical factors such as height/weight. Breaking down the gender divisions where possible must be the best way to equality right...?
