Big Wall Open 2014

After arriving from Austria, we have been participating on comp Big Wall Open. It was something like end of winter league with one qualification day, where was 10 qualification routes between 4 - 7c+. Second day were semifinals and finals, where started climbers, who climbed best first day + climbers, which were winners winter one month comps + Adam Ondra.
In semifinals we prepaired 7b+ for women and 7c+ for man. In this round was quite big scattering efficiency between climbers, so routes were starting around 6c and slowly gradate. In women category was achieved one top and two tops in men.
