The first pure difficulty comp of the 2014-15 SCBC season was held at a venue new to the SCBC roster – Cliffhanger, on Industrial Ave, Vancouver. The gym set-up worked well with ample spectator space and a great atmosphere – the sun was shining and the roller doors were raised for a great comp.

This weekend, on Saturday, February 28th, 2015, Cliffhanger Vancouver will play host to the second difficulty competition of the year sanctioned by Sport Climbing BC. It is the first time that Cliffhanger Vancouver has hosted such an event. Competitors will complete two flash qualifiers and one on-sight final. If you are just moping around the house this Saturday, get out and support your local competitors. I am sure you will have a good time. Squamish Climbing Magazine thought it best to check with Adam Diamond, the head route setter for the event, and see what they are bring to the table.
Hi Adam, thanks for talking to us. Cliffhanger is hosting the first lead comp of the season this weekend. Can you tell us a bit about the event?
