Indoor Weekly: Quebec 2018 Lead Championships

It was a high-energy weekend at Allez Up in Montreal for the 2018 Quebec Lead Championships. This was the first CEC National Series Lead Event this season.

Everyone brought their A-game and like many Lead comps this year, top boulderers won the podiums.

Maybe it’s that Lead routes are more like boulder problems these days or boulderers are training for more rope routes with Olympic dreams. Time will tell.

Below are Open podium results, see Allez Up’s post below for full podium results.
