This is green route (Troll Strength) and the Judge claims that his last minute change made it MUCH too easy....   which is apparently easy for him to SAY. (Diana's comment)

The judge

 

 

See the similarity between the Troll and Rod?  First Rod is awarded 3rd place... Then he sees that Brad received second,  and they have a little discussion about their scores...  the judge double checks the scoring and finds that they indeed have the same score and can therefore share second place.  See picture 4 where Rod applauds the decision. 

 

 

... but the winner is Wendell

   Thanks to all of you for good sportsmanship and a great evening.
