yep 20 to semi's
6 from the 20 to finals unless they've changed this rule since last year

[r-man]

Has anyone worked out what time semis and finals are on in the UK?

[fatneck]

Think the hapless commentator dude said 3.30am for semi's and 11am for finals but I could be wrong and I could have got confused with either the speed climbing or men's events. Sorry to be of little use   

[Jaspersharpe]

Are we already claiming Alex as a Brit in a Greg Rusedski / Kevin Pietersen / Zola Budd style? 

[fatneck]

Good call JS!

In an attempt to be more useful I've just spent ten minutes trying to fathom out timetables for tomorrow from the IFSC website but failed...

5min googling leaves me not much wiser, except that 10.00am in Chonqing is 3am in England.

 Webcasting is a great idea, and as the spokesperson said, should help raise the popularity of the sport... But only if we know when it's on! Details for each round should be on the website. And if they are intent on popularising the sport, why are they not making announcements on ukb, ukc, 8a.nu etc. etc.?

Whilst being born in the UK he states his nationality as Australian (although he may well be entitled to UK nationality  )

   Total waste of an opportunity...

From what I can gather from the webcast today, the bouldering finals will start at around 9.30am UK time...

just noticed that although most of the competitors were born after I started climbing, in 6th place is a 40 year old woman who has 3 kids - good effort Cecile

10am today maybe

In Fontainebleau

Rubis sur l'ongle 7b+
Le mur des lamentations 7b+

[r-man]

Sale Gosse isn't crimpy though. All slopey dishes and a slopey top.

Just spotted the line up for this weekend. Ten brits aboard http://www.ifsc-climbing.org/index.php?page_name=startlist&comp=1387

[Nibile]

sweet Jesus, we still send Core as our first athlete.
says a lot about his level, but also a lot about the current status of the Italian federation, that managed to make two top competitors quit...
