USA’s Ethan Zilz moves through to the final in first place and is the only climber in the men’s AL2 with a topped route. Italy’s David Kammerer is through in second, and enjoyed the qualification routes: “The routesetting was amazing. One steep route, very powerful with a jump at the end, I loved that one. The slab was also very nice. A nice set with cool moves where I had to think and be very technical and precise.”

With a night to reflect on his performance before trying to equal or better his current position, Kammerer said: “Now I’m going to relax and clam down and tomorrow I try to give my best, be more precise, look at the route more carefully and just try to power through.”

Gavin Nix is the second USA climber into the final and is through in third, with teammate Nathan Payne joining in sixth. Japan’s Yuki Shuhei and Germany’s Nicholas Perreth are the other finalists.

Women’s RP2

Austria’s Jasmin Plank leads the way in the women’s RP2 even though she was a doubt to even compete: “My climbing went very well. I’ve been injured for about four weeks, and I wasn’t sure if I could climb here, but I’m so happy that I came and climbed.

“The routes were amazing. I loved to climb the first route as it was a really technical route, and I could show what I can do. The second was a little bit bumpy, but both were amazing to climb.”

Up against the Austrian will be Norway’s Dina Eivik and the two home climbers, Emily Seelenfreund and Melissa Ruiz who progressed from 13 climbers who were combined from three sport classes – RP1, RP2 and AL1.
