Jon Turnbull (UK) third; Johan Gustavsson (Swed) fourth and Jared Abrogena from the Western Chapter in the US taking the fifth place after some bad luck during his climb.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is a testament to the world-class level of tree climbers in both Australia and New Zealand, that 5 out of the 8 Masters competitors in the two categories came from these two countries.\u00a0 James Kilpatrick (NZ &#8211; Asia Pacific) was also in the top ten, despite really bad luck in the Aerial Rescue: a footlock of 13.66 (0.01 seconds slower than his own world record!) certainly helped him to get him back in the points.<\/p>\n<p>Photos and video to be posted here soon \u2013 watch this space.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/intotrees.com\/Content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-ITCC-Results.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-485\" title=\"2011 ATCC Results.xlsx\" src=\"http:\/\/intotrees.com\/Content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-ITCC-Results-1-1024x543.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/intotrees.com\/Content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-ITCC-Results-1-1024x543.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/intotrees.com\/Content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-ITCC-Results-1-300x159.jpg 300w, https:\/\/intotrees.com\/Content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-ITCC-Results-1.jpg 2045w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, it\u2019s all over with, for another year.\u00a0 The 2011 International Tree Climbing Championship was held in Parramatta, on the 23 and 24 July: the first time that the world competition has been held in Australia.\u00a0 Due to concerns about &hellip;
