The 2019 Australian open climbing Nationals have come and gone. This year's were different to previous ones, not only the format of all three disciplines being run over 4 consecutive days, but also because of the Olympics. This is the beginning of the Olympic dream for all of our athletes. Those competing in all three disciplines were vying for a top 8 finish which would give them a place in the Australian team for the Oceania Championships being held on 28-9 March 2020.
Amanda, Tom, Rob and Carlie go through the results, have a chat about what it takes to put an event like this on and what the future holds.
