Innsbruck
was the third world cup stop for me. It was strange, but I felt more nervous
than usual. So close to home you just want to climb well. The audience was
great in Innsbruck, already for the qualification round there were lots of
people supporting you on the way to the top. Qualification and Semi-finals went
well for me; I was especially proud to keep my nerves and performed my best. However
in the Semi-final I fall off the top hold on boulder number 2 which was disappointing
and the reason why I finished only 17th and not a more deserved
better position. The disappointment did not last too long, because I was so
happy to hear that Stew qualified for the finals and I really enjoyed watching
and shouting for him, in this awesome atmosphere.
I am kind
of sad that there is a competition break now until August for me, but on the otherside I am happy to
have more time to climb on the rock again.
