This photo is in Austria. I join the UIAA Climbing competition - International Council for Competition Climbing.
Int. Youth Event - Petzen Trophy Kärnten (AUT) 2006 female youth C on 07 july 2006 - 09 july 2006 and won second prize for difficulty and I 'm the youngest winner too. There are 22 female in my category and I am the only asian from Thailand.
In the bouldering competition there are 12 routes to go in 2 hours. I could arrive on top for about 10 routes and I got 2 bonus from 2 routes, the routes are really hard and it so fun it makes me tired after 2 hours. For the total score I got the fourth place, I felt really happy because the score of first fourth position is very near and I'm also the youngest in the first fourth position.
In the last day is difficulty competition, the wall is not so high it only 12 m. In semi final we got 2 route to go in 4 min. for each route. Everyone could see me how to climb to the top, I'm the third starter too and they take only the first five to the final. I'm also in the final because I got the fourth in semi final.In the final everyone need to finish the route by not seeing other people climbing before or we call it onside and I felt very excited and I felt worried about the hole on the route because it was so small. But my mum and dad stay near to me to cheer me a lot and I just made them worried because I use the wrong move and so I nearly fall, but I finish the route and we felt really happy. The final result I got the second place in difficulty competition that I never thought that I could do it so far like this and the other competiter they are very strong too. I'm so sad for the first day I didn't touch the bell strong enough so the time didn't stop running in speed competition. I hope I could do it better in next year, this is my best expirence to know how the competition works.
