The day Chon arrived | Sunday Sends
on 26 May, 2019
There was a time when Jongwon Chon wasn’t the massive star that he is today. Back in 2014, when he made his first final, many of us were scratching our heads wondering who this young crusher was. Today we gonna review an impressive ascent from that day.

on 19 May, 2019
Today we gonna see, for the first time, a clearly illegal top. During the 2013 Munich Bouldering World Cup, Russian climber Rustam Gelmanov topped the 3rd semifinal problem after an invalid start. The judge noticed the incorrect start, but for some reason didn’t stop Rustam!
