Big comp weekend

This past weekend(9/26-9/27) I got to take part in two sweet competitions in the Bay Area. The first one on Friday night was at the Planet Granite in Belmont. I felt really strong going into the comp havig flashed a v6 called The Twilight Zone in the happy boulders in bishop the day before. Just found out the score today and it turns out I tied for 11th place overall out of 313 people!!
Super psyched about it!!! The pic above shows one of the problems I liked but couldn't finish, it had three dynos in it two vertical and one horizontal. It would've been nice to get it but oh well it was fun anyways. I got to meet up with a bunch of peeps I haven't seen in a long while so it was nice catching up and getting to climb too. 
These are the top few scores for the men's category, the women's top score started lower so I didn't include it. But it looks like three of us tied for 11th place in the comp. I'm still not sure if I'll make it back to Ca in time to go to the next PG comp on the 17th of next month but hopefully I'll be back in time to see if I can  make it. 
This is a breakdown of my attempts for that night. They changed the scoring from the way they've done it in the past to enable fewer attempts before the climb is worthless witch is kind of nice because it makes moving on to other projects easier. Another high note is there was still plenty of beer by the end of the comp and that's one of the first time I've been to one where they didn't run out shortly after getting it in the building haha
Well time to crash, I'll share more adventures from this weekend tomorrow.
