oh get over it already, it isn't that remarkable..

[@ziyanjiang1271]

I recently got into this sport and it's so natural that climbers discuss the strategies and techniches in front of a boulder wall in a gym before their tries of it. And I believe most of them started from a local small gym and progressed and learned from climbers/competitors all the way through!

[@brian8861]

They are climbers

[@edvaldob]

The way Ondra is always available to discuss strategies with pretty much everyone is just incredible. And he is always there to the current olympic champion.

[@TheJulienne21]

You have to feel for Adam Ondra. From the speed section, not his strongest suit but he was just happy to beat his record even if he lost. Then came the last event, and had the Gold medal in his grasp but eventually slipped. You can see how devastated he is. I was rooting for Ginés López from the start, but after watching Adam Ondre being competitive but still so light-hearted, it made me cheer for him too, especially after going that deep on the final event. Too bad, but I'm still happy for Ginés López.

[@psicologiageneraleconalleg369]

Adam was actually very lucky for getting 4th in speed. He was supposed to be last.

[@error.418]

@@psicologiageneraleconalleg369 Yeah, this combination was really stupid. Speed climbers very much specialize in just speed climbing, spending little time on boulder and lead. And vice versa, boulder and lead climbers don't do speed climbing. It's just not representative of how climbing disciplines typically converge. I'm glad 2024 is splitting off speed into it's own competition for gold, with boulder and lead being a separate gold.

I feel for these guys, they have to do all 3 disciplines in one afternoon. They had to be exhausted and without skin for the lead climb which is the hardest. The lines and boulders looked as difficult as world comps but they usually have a day between each event. Feels like the Olympics decided they are bigger and better so they made it 3x more difficult which is nonsense, no other athlete had to suffer like they did.

This was very exciting to watch! Unfortunately, no athlete from my country participated, so I didn't see this on television as there always was another sport with an athlete of my country in action. I also like the triple combination of this, and hope that in later Olympics there will be both this triple combination and individual disciplines of climbing.

[@sambeard4428]

I agree that it is an interesting combination and will create a new league of athletes who will specifically train for the triathlon discipline. Currently however very few climbers are well trained in all 3 disciplines and the ones who are (Tamoa Narasaki) end up on a much lower place because of the strangely specific scoring criteria. In my opinion they should have applied the same method they use in the decathlon in athletics, which is an aggregation of the points scored in each event, where the scoring system is based of experience of performances of many competitions.

Also boulders are problems, yes the route setters have an idea but if you watch any IFSC coverage you'll know that many many people find different, effective ways. Hopefully in 2024 they get actual climbers to commentate. I like the IFSC method where they get a climber who didn't make the finals commentate along with a professional commentator.

The scoring system is majorly flawed. Speed should be scored by fastest time (or combination of times) over 2-3 rounds. Otherwise, it basically nullifies the performance in either bouldering or lead (Lopez's bouldering). Narasaki should have won the speed round, given the fact that he had the fastest time. His slip is the only reason why Lopez won. Undeserved in my opinion.

[@MathaNoshtoBD]

Watched this sport for the first time... Wow this was very interesting

[@michicarrillo6755]

The point system, and how your bracket you get placed in (in the speed) effects points as well as the unfortunate Boulder setting really ruined this for me considering it was probably some athletes first and last event and they didn’t get to give their climbing skill justice.

[@jamesneeson6785]

Yeah the competition was fun but the scoring/formatting was dumb. Especially with the injury giving random byes in the speed round and the bouldering struggling to differentiate people. Personally I feel like everything that could possibly go wrong for Tomoa had to go wrong for him to lose this, and even then if the scoring had been additive he would have won. Seems very arbitrary.

So glad sport climbing finally is in Olympics. Yes, current scoring system is super weird, but it will be changed in next Olympics, Speed will be a separate discipline. Having said that, I believe top-four in men's final is very fair. You can argue about places distribution, and I personally don't think Lopez is the really the best of them all, but those four guys together totally deserve to be there. Ondra screwed things himself, on top of not being competitive in Speed. Which is sad, but fair.

[@midshipman8654]

very true, i felt that that one American and the japanese preformed best overall, so I cant say the scoring was too off.

[@highertest]

Lopez got pretty lucky in speed though, his best time in the finals would have placed him far away from first. He got lucky everybody slipped when they faced him.

I think out of the 100 arbitrary ways you could set this competition up, Tomoa wins 70 of them, and Nathaniel wins 25 due to his great performance on the day. Gines Lopez wins exactly one and it relies on Bassa Mawen getting injured and Tomoa slipping in the speed final lmao

[@kinggamereon653]

​​@@jamesneeson6785 yeah, tomoa outclimbed lopez on every other speed round than the one where he faced lopez (and that was due to a mistake on tomoa's part) I don't understand why they had to make speed in a tournament format, just make everyone climb it once and get their scores In that format there's a chance tomoa could've slipped too ofc but the max points isnt based on your seeding luck If you make a tournament at least make it a double elimination so there's less luck when it comes to seeding

Thank you for this video!!!! It's so hard to find full replays of Sport Climbing competition. Can you upload the qualification round as well please?

[@manuelacotito]

Alberto grandeeee !! 💪 🥇👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍

[@lleberghappy]

3:54:00 Lead climbing start

[@caravaggio31]

The Austrian guy gave the gold medal to the Spanish guy and got a bronze one in the process, coming from the last position. A Hollywood film? Welcome to the Olympics!

[@jamesneeson6785]

And all we had to do for the drama was use a dumb multiplicative scoring system with questionable merit

[@vanillaghetto]

@@jamesneeson6785 And brackets instead of absolute times in the speed climb.🙄

[@PhucNguyen-yp7pw]

Bloudering 3 expert level. I think no one in this world can overcome it

[@edgykay]

Ikr...Would be nice to know the intended beta for boulder 3. I think due to coming lead event, most of the climber are probably more concern about conserving their energy and saving the skin.

[@danwallis1984]

The climbing was great, but the speed climbing should be a separate event and i think they announced it is going to be next time. That final boulder problem was insanely hard, but it looked fantastic. What ruined it for me was the terrible Eurosport commentary. Its like they just had a script to follow and didnt really know about climbing. Just throwing climbing related terms in to make it sound like they did. The called the belay guy an 'auto-belayer' and just threw around descriptions of moves as if they were picking them off of a sheet of paper. Why not just get a commentary team with climbing knowledge? There are loads out there.

[@jessicaveganjessica2208]

Speed climbing will be separate next year.

[@EthelBH]

oh i agree the commentary was completely pointless

[@3stooges0]

Finally found a comment saying this. They said so much ridiculous and irrelevant stuff, like what was with that wildly inaccurate climbing history part about the origins being in Smith rock 80 years ago?? Not sure why they didn't use an IFSC commentator whos been doing it for years

[@woutkoopman]

I love it! Please do the women's next!!

[@TI-lq6cf]

1:43:50 Amazing climbing!

[@kylaraymone4019]

Why does this make me tear up omg.... So happy for them...

[@edvaldob]

This is a very hard medal to get. Probabily the hardest.

[@cadendupee3675]

Decathlon is harder for sure

[@jaybrick8973]

Marathon running is up there to they jog for like 3 hrs plus nonstop

[@Emily.WestWood]

Gymnastics? Rhythmic gymnastics? Those sorts are more difficult

[@Emily.WestWood]

[@edvaldob]

@@Emily.WestWood that's true but there are way more opportunities to get a medal.

[@danielrubin353]

Ondra sacrificing the flash to try to static the first boulder was classic

[@shannonmcmurchy2618]

awesome comp and beautiful spirit! NOW... when will we see the full replay of the women's sport climbing???

[@BigSources]

2:02:10 "upside down undercling" You mean... a regular hold?

[@zeldianyudhistira2170]

OH FINALLY..SPORT CLIMBING YEAAAHHHH

[@vidisharoy3630]

The Spanish guy is such a cutieeeeeee boy!! Choooooo chweeeettt😊🤗❤😘😘🥰🥰🥰

[@apbansod609]

Lopez is emotional celebrate gold medalist... I like it

[@prodigyminigolf]

The wait before Lead has the best soundtrack ever!

[@RussianSmacker]

It is mental how, if on the third boulder the zone was the one after the actual zone, Ondra would have been only one who actually managed to score it

[@Eric0728]

Don't understand why bouldering isn't number of moves like lead climbing is.

[@mariiatrodrigues]

Looking forward to the women’s!!!

[@thefanficdinosaur7621]

Ohhhhh yeaaahhh. I hope they wear small clothing so they …um…. are….uhhh….more aerodynamic.
