No video, but this will be of interest to fans of this thread.
One of our neighbors is a 94 year old Polish woman. She's a right character.
At a regular health check a couple of weeks ago the nurse asked "how come your arms are so strong?".
Julia replied "Stalin trained me - in the Gulag" and flexed her bicep impressively.
Amazing woman.

Such is the modern world of comp climbing. No longer can you get away with being a crimp waif, now you need to be able to one leg squat on a slab and smash out triple dynos (both of which require a decent level of general conditioning).

That's brilliant.

Probably the most motivating thing (for me) that I've seen in a long time.

I noticed that Yves Gravelle posted some serious beastliness the other day. This included 102kg on the BM centre slot. I thought that actually sounded ok (I’m currently at 93.5kg) but it obvs depends on how heavy he is.

So I asked him. 68kg!

That’s hardcore.

Mid two half crimp position on the 6mm rather than drag too, that's proper horrible!

Excellent stuff.
Can't imagine the pain from the 6 mm.

More legendary feats of endurance but this entertained me thoroughly. Ai Mori forgetting that boulder problems are supposed to be hard enough that you can't hang around all day on them:

I dunno if she even sweats. She certainly never shows any discernible emotion. Possible small-size android. We've had a soft spot for her in the last couple of years since she started doing well in the lead comps by shaking out and working out beta whilst hanging on to footholds and intermediates.

The whole comp is good, great problems and great climbing. Thrills and spills for Kokoro in Ms too.
