Saturday 25 Nov, it's once again time for the La Sportiva Legends Only invitational at Klättercentret in Stockholm, Sweden. This year it's once again an all female line-up where World #1 Shauna Coxsey will take on Stasa Gejo, Petra Klingler, Mélissa Lé Nevé, Katja Kadic and Fanny Gibert.

The Legends only is a redpoint competition and the competitors will have three hours to practice four of the problems on Thursday afternoon. New for this year is that the fifth problem will be secret and be climbed true onsight style, i.e no viewing.

Yesterday's practice session looked really promising and I'm sure we can look forward to a great show!

The competition will start at 8pm CET (7pm in the UK) and as always there'll be live streams on facebook (La Sportiva, Petzl, Unilad, Klattercentret) as well as on youtube.

Really insightful commentary about the competitors hips and a great dynamic between the screaming leukemia patient and the German boy

Really makes me realise how polished IFSC broadcasts have become! Still, cool problems and good to see different athletes fail/succeed at different ones.
