The 2007 annual PADani boulder competition in Petrohrad village (western Bohemia) is over, the last song has played at the afterparty, and the main prizes this year went to Adam Ondra and Nelly Kudrova.
But the real winners were everyone who attended: they came from all over Central Europe and even beyond. The list of participants reads like a who's who of Czech elite climbers... Adam Ondra, Martin Stranik, Rosta Stefanek, Silva Rajfova... Despite record numbers this year the gathering maintained it's usual relaxed atmosphere. The pictures below are only a first impression of the event, a full report and numbers should be provided latter by the organizers of the event. Many thanks again, for a beautiful day at the boulders.
