2014 Bouldering World Championships This Weekend In Munich
This weekend is the highly anticipated 2014 Bouldering World Championships in Munich, Germany. Several Americans will be joining a massive field full of the best male and female competition climbers from over 40 countries, all looking to take the coveted title of World Champion. One notable absence from the field will be Austrian legend Anna Stohr who is out with a finger injury.
Male qualifiers will be on Thursday with Women's qualifiers taking place on Friday. Semis and Finals will be streamed live on Saturday morning beginning at 11 AM local time in Munich.

Why no Daniel Woods?
Presumably he's doing rocks rather than a bouldering competition. I'm hoping Andy Lamb and Michael O'Rourke stay on the circuit this year and do good things.
the bouldering world cup circuit is over for 2014 but it would be cool to see a more regular american presence next year.
It definitely would be cool, but while several of the men have talked about it over the years none have actually dedicated themselves to it
It just cost too much money to commit to it for a whole season unless someone in funding you.
You're right, of course; I meant next year.
Quali results for the men:

Where is Hojer?
You have to click the "Qualification Group 1" link above the table. He finished 2nd in his group.
Here's a better link
What time is the finals?
Hugely stoked for Jula Wurm, hugely gutted for Puccio. That must really suck.
Did the Finals not get streamed? :(
I assume they did but the link was not ready when I made this post and I've been traveling so I haven't been able to keep tabs on things.
