05.24.2010 Toronto, ON
A huge crowd of about three hundred people watched Clarrie Lam and Sean McColl (both from Vancouver, BC) win the 2010 MEC Canadian Bouldering Championships Sunday May 23, 2010 at Joe Rockhead’s Climbing Gym in Toronto.

Clarrie Lam cruised her way to victory topping all 5 finals problems. Sixteen year old Elise Sethna (Banff, AB) followed closely with 4 completions and Melissa Lacasse (Montreal, QC) rounded out the top three women with 3 problems completed.

Sean McColl, who missed last years Championship in Montreal proved once again that he is still the man to beat in Canada winning his third title in the last 4 years.  Quebec power house, Yves Gravell was a close second while veteran Terry Paholek (Edmonton, AB) finished in third place.

The TdB and Joe Rockhead’s would like to thank everyone who competed and attended this past weekends events. We also want to thank our sponsors that helped make this season and in particular this event a tremendous success - Mountain Equipment Co-op, Gripped , Friction, Beta Clothing Design, Metolius, Delire, Blurr, Evolv, IMBoulderer and Climbing Hold Review.

We would also like to thank all of our volunteers for donating their time and energy. Props to the route setter Jody Miall, Dave Voltan, Ayo Sopeju, Ghislain Losier, James Shin, Sachi Adachi and Jonathan Pencharz for setting some of the best problems we climbed on this year. Your contributions are very much appreciated by everyone who attended the comp this weekend.

Another big thank you to Bob and Sharon Bergman for hosting us this weekend! They also donated all of the proceeds from the spectator entrance fees (00) to the OAC (Ontario Access Coalition).

That wraps up season 7 of the MEC Tour de Bloc. I’m finally off to bed for some much needed zzzzzz’s. Thanks to everyone for making this season a blast! Looking forward to season 8.

Have a great summer!
