Good showing from the British Men? And 2 Scots in the top 10.

Great stuff despite the men's difficulty level and the odd bit of technical shambles. Good footage and commentary and problems, Women's had the edge for interest I thought.

Enjoyed the commentary too. A personal highlight was "one man's soft is another man's hard"  :clap2:

I did the evening 'qualys' (I think da kids call em). Best CWIF in a few years IMO. 10 of the 30 problems in Unit E, so loads of variation and loads of tech, especially slabs. Very few steep problems. If they're still up get in there and give em a go!

Some (all?) were still up in unit E yesterday - particularly enjoyed the mantle onto the biggest volumes I've ever seen

Yeah that problem definitely suited the tall (to get established). The first problem on the left when you walked in was my favourite in there.

My mistake, In spite of having the most Scottish name possible, Hamsh McAngus is from Yorkshire. Young Max Milne finished a respectable 14th overall, 8th in qualifiers.
