Wang Qinghua during the competition
The Ninghai stop of the National Rock Climbing Series, organized by the Chinese Mountaineering Association, marked the first event of the year and garnered widespread attention within the industry. Forty-seven elite athletes, representing the highest level of domestic rock climbing from across the country, delivered a breathtaking display of "rock wall ballet" in Huchen Township, Ninghai. It is reported that the competition featured two disciplines: bouldering and speed climbing. Among the events held that day, bouldering was widely regarded as the most thrilling. In this discipline, climbers scale boulders no higher than five meters without ropes, relying solely on their own strength with no external aids. When the men's bouldering champion was finally crowned, the venue erupted in thunderous cheers.
