incredible performances by adam ondra and janja garnbret. i really got goosebumps when janja turned around to top W3. just absolutely insane. hoping to see the same winners in munich as in meiringen this year! watching this really just makes me want to run up to the nearest wall and scale it.... also those poor route setters must have been holding their damn breaths so hard throughout the women's boulders. in fairness to them, quite a few strong climbers sat this world cup out, akiyo noguchi, miho nonaka, shauna coxsey, petra klingler all regulars in the finals.

Would love to see janja trying some of the mens boulders. Simply incredible! And ondras performance on the first one as well as mia and hojers last one. Great comp!

[@andreaproto2859]

Its breathtaking watching Janja climb, extraordinary. Never seen anything like it.

[@tianyilian2352]

Holy..........I'm having goose bump watching Janja top all boulders seriously is she a human being???? so incredibly performance Janja!!!!!! And congratulations to Jongwon Chon, happy that he finally got the feeling back!

[@flubberamoebes]

Holy guacamole... So I just went back to look at the results of this season so far and if I'm not mistaken, Janja has won every single quali, semi and final except for one semi (in which she placed 2nd behind Shauna), and out of the 61 comp boulders she topped all but three. Three! I mean shit dude, every other person has collected more non-tops in this round alone than Janja has had this entire season!

Great thanks. Please ask Alex Megos to co-commentate with you in the final again. He was a blast in 2017.

[@Drinkyoghurt]

Mens bouldering is pretty cool, but seeing Janja just destroy it in the womens is like watching a once in a lifetime phenomena happening. Like, I was out of my seat for some of her tops and I never get this excited watching bouldering.

[@dyndu2074]

Janja got 4 times as many tops as all the other 19 women combined.

[@33samogo]

Semi finals are more exciting to watch than finals, because it shows the best of Janja

[@raulrefojos2902]

The conversation about the route setting if you have to set for Janja or the others it is silly. That it is the world cup you set to challenge the best climber, the rest have to fight to be us good as the best.

[@weiurwei8247]

wow wow wow Janja on W3 and 4

[@denislejeune9218]

Would be good to see how she can fare on the mens' boulders. Janja I mean. Having said that, just as it's wrong to say that Akiyo and Miho dominated last year (Janja stopped the bouldering WC for studying, she was smashing it before she stopped), let's keep in mind that the top Japanese weren't in Munich either. They may very well have topped a few boulders.

[@keqinhe8110]

if given the chance I bet Janja could top all men's problems as well...

[@peterhammer6915]

Ondra is just incredible. What he has achieved already in the sport is amazing. Probably gonna win the Olympics and then climb the first outdoor 9c+.

[@flipsidef4048]

Janja ... just utter dominance

[@xzysyndrome]

As it should be. If the worlds greatest climbers are redefined by her as simply "some really good climbers..." by her skills alone, I have no problem with it. Watching her climb was thrilling.

[@SpartanDB]

@@xzysyndrome I would have liked to see some of the other regulars attempt these boulders. Akiyo, Miho, Shauna, etc.

Anyone know why so many of the big regulars sat out this comp? Just curious

[@BetaRoutesetting]

Japanese Combined Championships next week for the japanese team (or in two weeks) Manu Cornu etc. they mainly concentrate on the World Championship in Japan in August and want to qualify there for the Olympic Games. Only a few athletes to the full circuit - most athletes like shaune etc aim for olympic games and skip whatever they can and take part in whats needed to qualify for world champs and toulouse in november

[@austinlokey]

Beta Routesetting thank you for breaking it down! That makes a lot of sense.

@@BetaRoutesetting Do you know if Jain Kim is competing at all in the IFSC this year?

So Janja's cheating, right? She's unlocked anti-gravity?

[@xzysyndrome]

Incredible climbing by Janja. Hearing the commentators, you'd think the world of bouldering was more interested in even playing fields and participation trophies instead of witnessing flawless and utterly raw talent. It was getting a bit tiring listening to them.

[@Jesusfsmums]

xzysyndrome I think that as commentators it a even playing field would be better because it’s more exciting but I agree everyone else just needs to suck it up and buckle down

[@FunnyBonne]

Может янье с мужиками выступать? Для конкуренции:)

[@ryanreynolds1103]

I really dislike the format of multiple climbers going at once. Much prefer the lengthier setup.

[@polaide8036]

It's a matter of what's practically feasible. There are 20 climbers with each 4 boulders of 5 minutes duration, so if they were to go one by one it would take 6 hours and 40 minutes.

According to social media, her name is Oceana, so Charlie's pronunciation sounds the correct one to me.

@@jeremiahd2209 I have noticed that and sadly assumed that it is so. When it comes to ones own name, I trust the named person to be the authority on spelling it correctly. Hence I trust social media profile spelling more in such cases.

Time to fire some routesetters.

[@alexanderboll8028]

Why?

[@maddiepilz5711]

So how many world cup routes have you set so far?

[@KarstenK123]

I agree that the womans boulders were pretty hard for a semi-final with only 1 top over all climbers (besides Janja) and very few zones. But routesetting is extremly difficult, on this level of climbing there are not a lot of people who can do that, and you really dont want to make them to easy so that everyone can top them. Also the hot weather played a big role I think. It turnes routes, that are under cold conditions easy, to extreme problems.

[@xzysyndrome]

Why fire the route setters? Time for some climbers to stop sleeping and step up their training. It is not a World Cup for good climbers...it is the World Cup for the best of the best. Just say "No" to participation trophies and easy setting so everyone has a fair chance.

[@kumatobazha4003]

@@xzysyndrome lol, your comment is so outrageous it's funny! 😂 I can promise you the other climbers train their asses off, and still deserve heaps of respect! Janja is just phenomenal, like Ondra is outside. And I loved the route setting, it let janja show her incredible style! :)
