In reply to robin mueller:
I agree that it doesn't belong in the comp. But I still think it's a "crowd-pleaser" though not specifically for a climbing crowd, but non-climbing observers (of which there are surely some?)
I remember there was controversy last year when they had a jamming problem which stuffed several climbers and some complained it wasn't "proper" climbing (which it obviously is), I think this is possibly the reverse. I get the impression the climbers didn't like it, the climbing-audiance didn't like it, though perhaps it provided some thrills and spills to newcomers to the sport?
Perhaps it just shows the divide between comp/outdoor climbing - as do the grades. Although I think that while some say that 8b climbers shouldn't really be struggling to climb 7b+ boulders, this is after the qualifications, the semis and infront of a crowd...
