Forgive me for my ignorance, but is there some reason there hasn’t been much news about Graham prior to this for the last year or so? Did he get injured or something? “continuing his return to form” What was he returning from?

    Wow, thanks for that, I had no idea so many people sustained injuries in the last year. Might make for a good list… pro climbers and their injuries.
    
    Dave Graham busted up ankle/foot
    Ethan Pringle torn labrum
    Chris Webb torn labrum
    Jason Kehl hurting his knee again
    
    Didn’t Paul Robinson hurt himself during the last year as well?

      I believe that was over 12 months ago at this point, but yes it has been a rough year for some of the top climbers out there.
