Welcome to the official website of the IFSC World Cup Puurs 2008 (Flanders) climbing competition heat in the Benelux.

After the successful climbing IFSC World Cup competition in 2007, we are proud to present the IFSC World Cup Puurs 2008 in Flanders, which brings our list of organised competitions up to the 8th Goldfinger and the 4th World Cup. Indeed, something to be proud of.

We promise you an amazing World Cup Lead and Speed climbing competition at top level. For the second time, this will take place at the newly built Klimax II competition wall in Puurs-Breendonk, where about 150 national and international climbers will compete to show you their skills.

Hopefully we can expect as many spectators as last year, when about 2000 visitors were thrilled by the competence level, the splendid animation, the sympathetic organisation and the exciting atmosphere of our World Cup heat. This year too, the entry will be free. So don't hesitate and come to see and enjoy this amazing event.

Still not convinced yet? Beside top class climbers, there will be food and beverages, a sponsor zone, a speleobox, a 60 m death-ride and animation for the youngsters.

If you can't be present, don't worry, you can follow the world cup at this site in live streaming. This site allows you to consult the participants list, to follow up the results and to review the live video during the entire weekend. The video can be watched on demand until Monday morning 6 o'clock Belgian time. Some short videos of the finals will be placed online during the week after the competition.
