Did Psicocomp Just Make Speed Climbing Cool?

Justin Roth, writing on The Stone Mind about last week’s Psicocomp:

The 2014 Psicocomp ended up even more exciting than the 2013 version. Clearly the event organizers paid attention to issues they encountered on their maiden voyage and tried to remedy them (hot tubs to keep soaked competitors from going hypothermic between heats, for example).

Delaney Miller On Psicocomp

Delaney Miller, writing on Petzl’s blog after finishing 2nd in the Psicocomp for the 2nd consecutive year:

Rock climbing is my absolute passion and I consider myself incredibly lucky to have discovered it at such a young age. I am excited to return for Psicocomp next year and I hope to see more competitions like it emerge, as they’re tons of fun and great for the sport.
