Definitely my proudest moment in coaching with the comp team. This feels like the first year where I really understood what the Regionals competitions test and was able to apply that directly to the training. The kids work so hard and care so much and they were able to do their best climbing on the day OR they've gotten so good that even having an "off" day still let them reach their goals.
It was a big moment and I think the team is only going to get better while staying true to having fun.

heck yeah! Get them chillins all up IN THAT SKY!
Speaking of, is 'the sky's the limit' a phrase you specifically do or dont use when coaching climbers?? Is the sky an aspirational goal or is it a taunting figure of impossibility?? 'haha look at you, ur just climbing that rock like a lil bug. you'll never get up here, I'm the SKY!!'
Or is it like 'yes my child, yearn for the expanse! Join me and we will share our victory together!!'
Maybe it just depends on the mindset of the storyteller on a given day.
