Hell of a ride this year at the ABS Youth Nationals. Even though I was one place out from qualifying for the US Team this year, I'm psyched on my 5th place finish! I've never placed or climbed this well at a national comp…especially bouldering. Congratulations @climinsimon98 @brett_walker_13 @drewruana and @kailightner for making team this year! You guys are strong as hell and it was an honor competing with you all. Now, time to start training for sport season…here we go! @evolvusa @team_edelrid @onsightgear #usaclimbing #absyouthnationals #teamdurango #evolv #purchalk #teamedelrid

So happy to share the podium with these two amazing climbers, who also just happen to be my friends and teammates ☺️. Had a great time at Nationals, climbing, making new friends, hanging with old friends, and watching some of the strongest climbers in the Nation crush. Congrats to everyone who competed and thanks to all my coaches and teammates for their support ❤. #usaclimbing #bouldering #nationals #bouldering

@sassyclimber1 looks at this climber as a role model. This is @ashimashiraishi about to flash the 3rd problem at USA climbing nationals today. #usaclimbingnationals #usaclimbing #ashimashiraishi #ashima #evolv #clifbar #nationals #bouldering #thenorthface #flashedit

Thats a wrap for youth bouldering nationals. Did well in qualifiers ending up 4th but for semifinals I placed 11th, one spot out of finals. The first climb was my anti style, balancy slab. Even though I still topped it I was a little shooken mentally and couldn't group up before climb 2, resulting in me doing poorly on it. I got my weaknesses exposed in semifinals and am going to work on fixing them. #climbing #rockclimbing #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #scarpa #bouldering #usaclimbing #usacbouldering #absnationals
