The event in Munich draws the curtains on the World Cup 2011.

The IFSC Bouldering World Cup closed on Saturday with the event in Munich, Germany.

The competition awarded the World Cup titles to the Austrians Anna Stohr – winner of the World Championship in Arco – and  to Kilian Fishhuber, although neither of them stepped up for  the first place in Munich.
In the women’s field, the Slovenian Mina Markovic gains the gold medal with 3 tops 3 out of 4; the home athlete Julianne Wurm, galvanized by her public, sends one boulder more than Anna Stohr and thus gets the silver medal, with Stohr in third place.

The Russian Dmitry Sharafutdinov, World Champion in Arco, shows again his great shape with four boulders climbed on first attempt; but most impressive is the fact that only Russian athletes are on the podium at the last bouldering competition of the year: Rustam Gelmanov is second, and Alexey Rubtsov is third.
