I've always enjoyed watching Kim Jain climb. Her movements are so smooth and precise, like a flow. It is weirdly calming.

[@JosephKimWanpo]

I enjoyed watching it and learning more about her career. However, a few things worth noting about the "triangle position". I would argue that all professional lead climbers try to climb efficiently, and based on different strengths and weaknesses (height, weight, body type), climb differently. The triangle position isnt a magical technique that, if other climbers applied it, they would become significantly better. There are plenty of examples in lead competition of climbers of all experience using the "triangle position". Her decisions to smear over back flagging is an interesting point. A smear would give you some height and another point on the wall to push away from. A backflag would keep you equalized until your body starts to move again. Maybe here, we see an example of better technique over attributing her success to the magical triangle. There are many things at play here. An important note is that Kim Jain is 5 feet and 93 pounds. Extremely small and light. She also does NOT compete in bouldering, which means she dedicates herself entirely to specializing in sport climbing. I saw an interesting video comparing her hold/minute pacing to other competition climbers. There are climbers who go faster and slower that her, but her pace seems to be the litmas test for the success other climbers in that competition. Meaning, she seems to be able to find the optimal pace for each route. I also think you meant to touch on her use of momentum, which is an extremely useful tool for short people. But that does not undermine her sheer strength/weight ratio. Again, she is very small and rarely do we see her scrunched up but constantly extended. There are many ways to climb extended problems, but especially with short climbers we see several trends. Firstly, power. Climbing statically is no easy task, and deep pulls/lockoffs at extended angles require lots of energy and tension. Second, use of momentum, efficient use of momentum and deadpoint precision. Third, smearing to maximum efficiency and reach. Fourth, flexibility. In this video you can clearly see just how flexible Jain is. Another trend is squareness to the wall, which requires plenty of physical strength to maintain constant tension throughout the body to ensure deliberate and efficient movement. There are many more, but when I think of Jain, these are some of the features in her climbing that I see. Great video, for future videos however, I think it is worth to consider morphology in climbing style, in which there are very distinct trends, as well as trends in their climbing careers to help explain things. In South Korea, there are very few successful professional climbers, and we are always super proud of Jain and Chongwon!

[@krzysztofkrakus2500]

Nice video & Great comment! 💪 Greetings from Poland 😆

[@richardmenger6992]

Great comment! For me.....I love her deadpointing and momentum it's something I can't get enough watching that, learnig, learning, learning. But.... you pointed out an interesting video about compering her hold/minute pacing to other climbers. Do you perhaps a link of the video? thnx. Greetings from Holland

[@ascentionism]

Hey this is an awesome comment! I really appreciate your breakdown. You're totally right, the triangle isn't a magical fixture that should be substituted in every scenario, and Jain isn't the only one who uses it. Your point about squareness was something I had in the original script, but deleted because the video felt like it was dragging. You're correct - there are so many elements to her climbing that I didn't touch on that you pointed out. Really just goes to show how great of a climber she is and how many micro-adjustments she makes all the time. I assume you feel the same way about Jain as I do about Sean McColl and Alannah Yip! She's truly an all-time great, and it looks like you guys have another star in the making with Chaehyun!

[@lukasz-dg5rn]

That's what I was thinking while watching. Also - I am not sure if I remember correctly, I believe that in one competition commentators said that she also has something like +10cm ape index. I might remember it wrong though.

[@elliotpahl672]

@@ascentionism I would argue that at least in the example you cited for the triangle position, they generally point to her strengths in shoulders and tension, rather than the application of a magical technique. Additionally, wrt Puurs in 2015, given the difference in height I think it's unlikely that doing the volume smear would have been useful for Jessie or Anak.

[@lukasz-dg5rn]

I think Ai Mori is good idea for this kind of video - what she does is extraordinary. She's super skinny, looks like her bones are gonna break and also looks like she has no strength or power but somehow she can use her lightweight, generate real power and she even beat Nonaka during last Japan Bouldering Cup (YT channel: JMSCA Competition TV, date: 31 january 2021, competition: 16th Japan World Cup finals). She has some great route-learning skills - sees a boulder, tries it, looks like she has no idea what she's doing, takes a thought and then just does it easy... and with each Japan Cup she's getting so much better at it.

[@ascentionism]

That's a great idea! I'll definitely watch some more of her film

[@JohannPetrak]

Absolutely agree: her style is the essence of what lead climbing is or should be. Sadly competition climbing has recently moved more and more towards something that favours styles which are more geared towards general audiences: more dynos, faster climbing (e.g. the reduction of time available for World championship lead climbing events), moves that require raw power more than technique.

[@knightsljx]

Great analysis on the use of the triangle. Jain has a lot more going on than her climbing technique. Her mental state is first class, you seldom if ever see her panic or show signs of fatigue during a climb, she will be calm and composed right up to the moment her body lets go and pops off. You're always surprised when she falls off the wall, because you're so used to seeing other climbers give a tell that they are in trouble. This again factors into her efficiency in climbing. Another way she maximises her effciency is her quickdraw flicking. If a draw isn't in the perfect position for clipping, she flicks the draw with her hand or feet, and clips in on the return swing of the draw. This reduces energy waste. Many climbers go out of position when trying to clip, wasting energy in the process

[@Carathil]

And THIS is the exact reason I am mad furious about businessmen saying "who wants to watch jain kim for 8 minutes, fucking boring get out of here" and then they reduce the time limit to 6 minutes and pack every single lead route full of dynos.

Fellow Canadian here! Kim Jain is always such a joy and wonder to watch. She's always in control, always so elegant and efficient. The most impressive thing is how she can effortlessly rest on impossible looking holds! I also really enjoy watching Jule Wurm for her deliberate movements (especially her foot work!)

10:51 ouch! ...and wow! Thank you for the commentary Ascetionism. Very clear also for non-climbers.

[@jonowoodgo]

The most amazing competition climber we've ever seen without a doubt. Her problem solving on the fly, her technique, her strength for power to weight ratio would be phenomenal. She's humble quietly spoken but her climbing speaks for her. I've learnt more watching this amazing beautiful lady than any other climber...yes I've learnt a lot from Ondra but not everyone has his strengths. So to learn as a beginner Kim is the perfect climbing technique absolute finesse. Awesome vid and i completely agree with you.

[@ArinaThomsen]

Watching Kim Jain in many ways brought me into rock climbing.

[@Lhistoiresansfin-cg2iw]

I loved the video, thanks for this series it really is amazing. I learn so much from these breakdowns, and I can also appreciate their climbing more. Thank you a ton for these, I'm sure they take a ton of work and I'm super thankful for them.

[@mattcanoy5353]

As a novice climber I wish someone just yelled at me on my first day like a secret sensei: “make triangles”🔺🔻

[@pewwwwooop]

Buuuut theres a reason its uncommon. The heavier you are the harder it is. Nevertheless its a nice trick to do if you don't know what to do else:D

[@hbpencil1200]

as a very short climber, seeing jain on the wall gives me both hope and insight, a better understanding if you will of mouvements. i love climbing for many reasons, i really really do, it scares me how much i love it, and mouvements gotta be one of the reasons. i often imagine that her meticulous execution of technique, micro adjustments, foot swaps that are almost second nature to her climbing in order to find better body positioning/triangle to push off her feet and gain reach, all that smearing- is somewhat a result of her having to find drills like these and practice them over and over again from the beginning of her climbing career. I'm a shit climber, and i don't mean to compare myself to jain kim in any way- but i see that trend in short climbers who have to think harder and apply certain techniques from the start, even on their first juggy beginner route that everyone else just reaches the next hold keeping both their feet secure. It's quite frustrating until you accept that you just need to climb differently, with higher feet, better body positioning, better endurance, and honed problem solving skill. Then rarely, when being tiny is an advantage- (as can be, sometimes) we get to fully, fully savour the joy and privilege. anyway, just thinking that facing all the relative difficulties in climbing due to my height could, may be, mean that i'm getting closer to jain's climbing style than i would've been had i been taller, is a consolation and motivation. That is, if i instead of giving up, find a way to solve the problem even though that means i'll struggle on what some 2 weeks gym climber flashes.

[@katrinaxharhus3747]

I'm super short too, and I love watching Jain Kim and Aishima Shurishi (if that's how you spell it) especially because of how they use their feet, and how precise they are with their foot and hand placement. It's definitely the technique I want to emulate. Solving spacial problems creatively is one of my favorite things about climbing. I suppose that as a short person I'm going to have a lot more problems to solve--and that's not a bad thing! I just need to work on my flexibility.

[@dereinzigwahreRichi]

I just saw this video and thought "that's exactly how I climb!" I'm doing so many of these techniques just because I'm on the short side and on climbing gyms there's lots of tall people building the routes for people of at least average height. I'm using the triangle, I'm smearing or balancing with my second foot all the time when the next hold is just too far away, I keep myself tensioned and close to the wall, I think about every move, slowly try it and correct it if it doesnt work out... I'm just not as flexible in any way. ;-) My girlfriend, who is even shorter, started to emulate all these techniques years ago also and is quite successful with it now. But sometimes our small difference in reach can make a route a grade or two harder for her and practically impossible. But short climbers, do not despair, head into the great outdoors! We recently started actual rock climbing and it's a whole new world with a thousand possibilities to move and not just one next hold you just cant reach...it's great for us!

[@forestyang9262]

Ai Mori also seems to experiment with different methods of getting the next hold and form triangles with her legs a lot.

[@dorkette888]

[@SuperAkaras]

Instructive, thanks. Recognising when it makes sense to smear on the wall, rather than just using the footholds available, is something that doesn't happen until after having already failed on my first attempt (and most likely, I'll fail a few more times trying with just the holds, before widening my vision and trying something different). Fascinating to see that same blind spot popping up among the professionals at ~ 9:50. "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants." Jain Kim is a 5ft giant.

Kim Ja-in is Such an inspiration for rock climbing and sports in general. I was lucky to meet her and got autograph, picture and talked for a few mins at the ifsc lead World Cup in 2017. For sure she suited the 8 min time limit and longer routes. I wasn’t a fan of the 6 min time limit rule when it came in place. I was in tears watching her last win at Japan in 2019, I think it was Japan or Slovenia she had last win and still holds most gold medals, Janja is close to overtaking Jain but then the pandemic hit in 2020 as everyone knows it effected world sports for a long time and still at the time of writing this comment. Kim Jain is very fluid and methodical climber with great power to weight ratio and endurance like no other human. She is up there with other great humans and athletes like Micheal Phelps, Bruce Lee.

Nice video. I don't pretend to know anything about climbing, but I noticed two things about this climber that is different than others I have seen climb. First impression is that her climbing constantly makes me think of sloths. Methodical and somewhat hypnotic. And second, in all the shots you provided I don't think I saw a single time where she drops an arm and shakes it out. Frequent arm shake seems to be de rigueur with the other climbers I have watched. To me she channels the forms taught in karate or tail chi rather than being a display of raw athleticism.

[@TheMightyOdin]

She is so graceful.

[@Sefse311]

I am far... far far (very far) away to be a pro or even an expert climber. But the triangle position was given me as the "base" of climbing. I thought that everyone would know it from the very beginning and I was also told that i have to keep in mind to come back to the triangle as soon as I can...

[@J_punkt_O_punkt]

Good catch with the triangle. I couldn't put words to it. One minor comment: I don't think she *rests* her other foot against the wall. She engages it as much as is efficient. In the videos you can often see, how she slowly loads the smearing foot a bit more. What's IMO also outstanding about her style, is her perfect timing on deadpoints. Other climbers overshoot, often on purpose to gain time grabbing and loading the hold; she rarely does that.

[@calidaverde]

It is nice that you had a moment of Lynn Hill because she climbs in a very similar fashion (same size and morphology as well). I discussed this with her once because I climb similar (of course at a lower grade level), and in our cases we agreed it was partly from the fact that both of us climbed trad for almost a decade before sport climbing came along, and we preferred the more static and endurance-based approach. Kim would be an incredible trad climber as well.

[@ascentionism]

That's so cool! Yeah, Lynn Hill is one of the OG's of this style, and it's cool that she attributes it to her trad experience. She talks a lot in her book about her size and flexibility gave her a completely different toolset than climbers of the time like Bachar and Long.
