Kevin Tobin is an owner, camp director, and youth programs coordinator for Peak Experiences climbing gym and Passages Adventure Camp in Richmond, Virginia. He also coordinates the Bouldering competition for the Dominion Energy Riverrock festival each year, which attracts some of the top climbing athletes to compete, including Nathaniel Coleman, Kyra Condie, and Brooke Raboteau, three of the members of Team USA in the Tokyo Olympics. In addition to the athletes representing the U.S., Garrett Gregor is the lead route setter for the Olympic event and he's held the same role in the past at Riverrock. So Kevin is a great source for knowledge on all things related to climbing.
He gave us great insight into the competitors and format for the Olympic event ahead of the start of the climbing competition on August 3, so be sure to listen before you tune in to the Olympics.
