Deep Water Soloing

Deep Water Soloing also known as Psicobloc is nowadays gaining popularity in the climbing scene. THIS WEEK (the 1, 2 of august) it´s going to hold the second Competition of all time.

Building off of the success of the first elite Psicobloc competition held in in Bilbao, Spain, in 2011, the Psicobloc Masters Series is the next evolution in competitive climbing. The inaugural Psicobloc Masters will be held August 2, 2013, at the Utah Olympic Park's 750,000-gallon freestyle aerial training pool. Some of the best climbers in the world will compete head-to-head on a custom wall approaching 5.14 in difficulty, featuring a 26-foot roof 50 feet above the water. The comp will feature a men's and women's division and winners will share a $20,000 purse, the largest of any climbing competition this year.

You can watch it live on Internet and follow the Comp in the next website:
