Indoor Weekly: interview with ?? Boulder 2018 Champ @allisonvest in profile link! From Vest: “Sort of surreal. The final move on this boulder was SO CLOSE to not happening. But I had just seen @mccollsean take his boulder down so I just HAD to keep up ?. Huge props to @alannah_yip for flashing this thing with grace and to @bronwenkarnis for rounding out the podium! So so so exciting to have so many strong ladies in this country! Also, I can now say with 100% confidence that there is nothing better than a @becca_frangos congratulatory hug tackle. Nothing. So psyched! #OBN2017 #bouldering #Canada ?: @trinitymetolius”
