Dave Barrans: Briancon LWC
http://davebarrans.blogspot.com/2012/07/briancon-lwc.html
Friday, 27 July 2012. As British leading champion I felt I ought to attend at least one of the rounds of the lead world cup. After a quick scan down the IFSC calendar and a bit of research I plucked for Briancon as it is one of the shorter walls on the tour and therefore must be better for a lost boulderer such as myself! Qualifiers started early, the first climber starting at 8:30, thankfully I was out 24. The first route slopey pinches in a roof.heaven! Route looked like it was going to hurt! And so go...

Dave Barrans: British Bouldering Champion
http://davebarrans.blogspot.com/2012/07/british-bouldering-champion.html
Wednesday, 18 July 2012. Well it finally happened! I am the 2012 British Bouldering Champion, after three years of being so close I was convinced that this one was my nemesis. This year seemed like no exception as I did my middle finger pulley three weeks before! I could climb on it but it would then swell lots and be useless the day after. So three weeks of antag work and occasional pull-ups would be my training for the BBC's.I wasn't hopeful! Here is me on one of the qualifiers. photo Alex Messenger.

Dave Barrans: April 2010
http://davebarrans.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 20 April 2010. One or two things. Last Saturday saw the annual Plywood masters at Boulder UK, After the qualifiers i was in first place, but with Nige looking strong and Ned always capable of pulling something out the bag the pressure was still on! I flashed all five of the final problems to take the title for the second year in a row. It was nice to feel strong in a comp again and am now motivated to train for the first round of the world cup in a three weeks time. A bit of trad pottering.

Dave Barrans: September 2010
http://davebarrans.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 14 September 2010. While i've not been posting any thing on here i've mostly been out doing a few routes including Power ranger at Malham, my first 8b . I've not been on it for about a year and sent it on my first redpoint of the day, hitting all the holds wrong through the crux, but still managing to get to the top! I guess that's the way it goes sometimes, never let go! Withe semis and finals on Saturday. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Sunday, 14 February 2010. Finger injury's christmas and work! Well that just about sum's up my last two months, after hearing my finger go crack at the start of December it has been a frustrating few months of not really training, coupled with a good bout of man flu after Christmas which just would not go away! The finger seems to be coming good again now so i can get back to pre-season training. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Finger injurys christmas and work!
