Janja Garnbret VS Ashima Shiraishi - IFSC Climbing World Cup Arco 2017 - Climbing Comparison

[@MarkSmith-hq4rr]

Janja lead climbs with such precision and control its insane! Her bouldering is so high energy and loose. She’s got it nailed

[@georgiamillis4218]

Damn, that tumble! It's so cool to see very different styles side-by-side

[@Selahangelique]

Yea it's interesting to see how their technique changes based in the height difference.

[@annaprzygoda6247]

how beautiful, how precise! finished in the same spot, pretty amazing.

[@carsilk2492]

4:20 It sounds weird, but I love to see disappointment, because it means passion. Great music btw

[@damienomen68]

Goats-In-the-Wind. Awesome.

[@lotnemez1655]

That sounds weird.

[@berkayefe8141]

Perfect editing. Please keep it up for these kind of videos 👍

[@guilhermecaiado5384]

Janja Garnbret has such an ortodox aproach and Ashima Shiraishi is so erratic, they both are probably the best and is really nice to see that next negerations would further develop the sport beyond what we ever imagined. But i really feel that with time Ashima Shiraishi will become the greather that ever lived, i only hope that she becomes wiser each day.

[@judy1519]

I just recently started watching climbing videos only to find out I was literally in Arco during that time 😂 the whole city was full of climbers in shirts of their country! but for real great video, thx

[@mountainlife2411]

Wow, excellent climbing from both!

[@dennisdonovan4837]

Even with a pair of wings … I’m sure I couldn’t do what these amazing women do … ❤️😎❤️

[@titus4702]

Ashima is very determined and has so much endurance despite her short body. i love to see ashima !!! Lots of love girl ❤️❤️❤️❤️

@Blaine Tripp I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@planat96]

I can't wait to see them in the Olympics (Speed, Boulder, Sport).

[@looser8749]

I have been watching janja in many climbing competitions it seems like she is way ahead of competition.

[@76Migou]

Bonsoir, C'est une impressionnante qualité sportive et aussi une impressionnante qualité vidéo. Double effet !! Merci,

[@pounet2]

Janja was a little better on this climb with more natural moves. Ashima didn't clipped before the last dyno... They are both amazing anyway ! It is wonderful to have such young and gifted female climbers. The crown will be shared between those two in the coming years and the competition will be fierce.

[@galbedrac1912]

Nope janja is far ahead of ashima

[@richardfredlund3802]

Ashima was a bit longer on the wall... her endurance is incredible...but (just as a viewer--I'm not a climber) .. I can't help but think the slower speed might cost, even with the endurance.

[@sallylee4924]

+ Richard Fredlund I've noticed that Ashima chalks up a lot. Like way more than most climbers. She seems to reach for chalk whenever she's not 100% sure of a move. I've seen videos where she chalks up between several consecutive holds. She might be chalking up unnecessarily, and this contributes to her being slower.

[@jonnysith]

Speed doesn't matter when the end result is the same.

[@galbedrac1912]

@jimmysp4des janja was an owerall lead champion at 16

[@okinoboo4743]

Ok I got scared halfway at the part with the successive small triangles... O la la! Nice comparison!

[@Mercyforthewicked]

holy shit that looked so difficult

[@gregspauldini3139]

Ashima is one of if not the most graceful, in control, and just efficient climbers I've ever watched. Love Janja but there's just something about the way Ashima climbs that's so unique.

[@whispersilk]

[@lawrencetchen]

That's a pretty deep gaston they both dyno-ed to and fell on. Janja did not look too happy about it on her way down...

[@chra3427]

toe instead of heel would have been better for janjas position at the dyno

[@lawrencetchen]

Chris - agreed. And Ashima went from cut feet, that's even harder.

[@stillamitchinmybook6320]

Lol I don’t understand what y’all are saying! 😂

[@stillamitchinmybook6320]

Lawrence Chen what does that mean cut feet?? Like she was climbing with a bunch of cuts on her feet and what a Gaston

[@bidyutm]

@@stillamitchinmybook6320 "Cut feet" implies feet slipping off the wall, or hanging on without any foot on the wall.

[@Hue_Sam]

Two legendary climbers battling it out.

[@jenniferhill8776]

I'm not a Rock climber but besides biceps, it appears she has extraordinary abdominal strength? Any other experienced rock climbers have opinions on this?

[@verbalwound5874]

Yes, you need core strength to climb overhang

[@theecstatic9686]

Who the hell needs ballet when a guy can watch these two at work...beautiful...

[@bathsalt79]

My palms and feet literally turned wet while watching these climbers. i mean i had to grab a tissue to pat dry. i thought it was just me but i read other comments about having the same experience.

[@thecrimsonking187]

Janja is so clean and axactly. Ashima is amazingly good, but Janjas Move seems like she knows exactly how their where intended. I don´t think she personal knows it, but her body. Edit: the Same with Ondra. It´s fluent, precise und strong.

[@cheowweikoay2601]

I think both are very skillful. Janja is 10cm longer.

[@thecrimsonking187]

@@cheowweikoay2601 I wouldn't necessarily say that being small is a big disadvantage in bouldering. Some boulders are much harder when you are tall. And a friend of mine who is relatively small can actually boulder anything in our hall. And yes, both are really skillful, but Janja is still number 1 for me and also with a certain distance.

[@cheowweikoay2601]

@@thecrimsonking187 agree. Ashima and many other smaller ladies have definitely proved your point. Talking about this one specifically which costed Ashima another 1 min -if you notice which part. Also, with shorter reach, it's even more important to know what to do fluently, precisely and strongly. Nothing against Janja, clearly incomparable. Would think Ashima would do even better if she has the same height but .... No way to prove it. Thanks for the response!

[@arnaudsimon3265]

Ashima is more aesthetic to watch besauce of her amazing joint mobility

[@arnaudsimon3265]

She is asian

[@mountainlife2411]

They're both pretty damn mobile.

[@ArinaThomsen]

Didn't they all miss the right foothold under the second blue volume and attempted the dyno where it was supposed to be static? Or the route was just set for someone who is taller and reachier?

[@bareeraaa8905]

My hands are sweating

[@oldfrend]

[@NickLiang]

From a professional sports point of view, Janja is a significantly better climbing in the world cups, it’s quite apparent. More experience and stronger

[@NickLiang]

@@matthieuschmitter6676 No its not like comparing a feather weight to middle weight, those are weight classes in boxing and they do not compete with each other under any circumstances. In climbing there is no such thing. They are competing on an even playing field and Janja is significantly better. In terms of wingspan, there are many climber's in the worlds cups with greater wing span than Janja, but she still completely blows them out of the water. It is obviously her strength, technique and mindset which brings her superior to other competitors. Jain Kim is a short climber with a more limited wing span, but she is consistently and top performing athlete.

[@civedm]

Two amazing climbers.

[@chiihasagi7430]

wow. you can see the advantage of height here

[@osphranterrufus]

wait who won??

[@smalllunglee9900]

i feel the left one use more skill than the right one , and save much energy ,right??

[@cheowweikoay2601]

Ashima is only 154cm.. so she would need to use more unique move for the reach.

[@dingdingdingdiiiiing]

5:41 did you notice how Janja realized she wasn't going to be able to hold the grip and she didn't even try holding it - she let go a fraction of a second after it became clear to her that her momentum and the grip weren't compatible - she could have tried, got an injury and still fail.

[@vertmonk]

Competitions when nobody was cared about the poster feet touches

[@steveeb9567]

Bottom line, speed saves energy.

I think she's standing on her heel, it's a sort of heel hook, and the toe happens to be near the hanger.
