On the wall with Alex Honnold: Sport climbing's new heights

[@santiagosalcedo7909]

In Spain, if you join eurosport channel and spanish national tv, the climbing final (not speed) was the most viewed event in the whole olympics.

Alex Honnold faked free solo. They filmed it in a Disney studio.

He should have competed in Paris

Speed climbing 😪😴

[@Jam....]

really wish it wasnt a discipline in the olympics

[@SUM1518]

​​@@Jam.... Why? It's a real discipline just like the others. Agree that it shouldn't be combined with the others like in Tokyo (bouldering and lead should be separate too), but since it has a separate medal there are no problems with that.

[@TennesseeHighker]

Do you like speed walking?​@@SUM1518

[@simonbass255]

It's a perfectly valid sport, it's just different and it has its own medal now so it can stand on its own as it should.

I wish they had different routes though​@@SUM1518

lol. Adam Ondra is an accomplished climber😂😂😂. Sorry Adam. Not the best climber ever. Just somewhat accomplished.

[@yeskiii]

I don’t think they ever said he’s the best climber ever?

[@ericlin158]

@@yeskiii No they didn't that's my point, they said he's an "accomplished" climber, even though he is arguably the best climber who ever lived.

[@asharablack]

*best outdoor lead climber. There's already a number of boulderers who are better than Ondra.

[@colemantrebor6574]

@@asharablack sport climber usually refers to lead climbing/top rope climbing and not to bouldering
