It's weird that 1 top and 2 bonuses (Akiyo) beats 1 top and 3 bonuses (Stasa). I know it's based on the number of attempts for the tops, but it still seems like Stasa should be 3rd.
@lechatvenere7 жыл бұрын
Bonus can be taken if after qualification, semi-final and final, climbers are still equal. As Stasa and Akiyo were not equal... it's as simple as that, but quite unfair.
@yumapplesauce7 жыл бұрын
ThePurpleAlien each attempt also counts. The score reads on the fact that Akiyo has a top on one attempt where Stasa has a top on three attempts. If the scores were tied with one top and one attempt, the bonuses would be factored into the score where Stasa would have outranked Akiyo.
@iDominic427 жыл бұрын
There is a bigger problem, as I see it. Attempts don't count unless a bonus or top is counted. Therefore, there is a point at which a climber should stop trying to get even a bonus, because it might count as 15 attempts. Failing to get the bonus at all does not count against, at all. It just disappears. But if you get it at attempt 15, that will count against you. There should be a 3rd category, which is number of attempts in total. We saw that at Munich. Lots of climbers would have had their score changed on M2 if they had stuck the bonus because their were huge numbers of goes at that problem. But no attempts were counted against anyone other than Jan Hojer who was the only one to get the bonus or the top.
@yumapplesauce7 жыл бұрын
iDominic42 I don't see that as a problem. It becomes a mental game in the sense that it's a matter of strategy and knowing your capability. Do you press on to top even though you've attempted 7 times? Or do you save your strength for the next climb?
@josiahmanson7 жыл бұрын
@iDominic42 No, the extra attempts don't count against you, because getting the top or bonus takes priority. Someone with 2 tops in 999 attempts wins over someone with 1 top in 1 attempt. Similarly, if you haven't gotten the bonus yet, there is no reason not to keep trying. It will only count against your bonus attempts, not your top attempts. The only reason not to keep attempting is that you will get tired.

I'll happily take up the debate the commentator elicits here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGOwoZuOrtWdepY\?t\=11871. Jan him self points out he had height advantage on M2 here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGOwoZuOrtWdepY\?t\=12045. But Jan also says he doesn't complain about high feet or cramped boulder problems. Having watched most of the bouldering WC for the last three years and being a tall climber myself I can say unequivocally that taller climbers get a raw deal more often than not. I think it's actually gotten worse this year as the dominance of the Japanese and the departure of other large bodies like Sarafutdinov has lead to even tougher sets for taller climbers. What really rubbed me the wrong way was that I don't recall a single time in a final in last three years that it was insinuated that a short climber won due to favorable "shortie" sets.

Really IFSC? You rendered interlaced video footage to progressive? In 2017? It looks horrible! And the worst thing is that the stream wasn't interlaced. Someone must've fucked up and interlaced it all in post processing. Look guys.. i don't wanna be uncessarily critial or an asshat. But you have such a great competition. Great athletes. The whole comp was a lot of fun to watch (was there live). Amazing footage. And then you flush it down the toilet by making it almost unwatchable.. it's just a shame. Please check the stuff before you upload it. Have someone responsible for quality control. Doesn't take much time! It's really hard to sell competitive climbing as a serious, established sport to friends and family when everytime they wanna watch a stream or a replay it looks like it's done by an amateur with choped up video, interlaced footage, missing or broken audio.. You're short-selling your own product with bad presentation.

Tall guys have benefits on reachy problems of course, but at the same time they are more heavy. Depending on problems, some of them can be beneficial if you are taller, but some problems can be very compressed and would be easier for short people. Also, if they problem is heavy, or the grips are very small (crimpy), then it is easier for a light person to hang on than a tall person. So it is not really absolute.
@josiahmanson7 жыл бұрын
The caster is just salty because he is short. If height is a benefit or not depends on the particular problem. Obviously, being tall isn't a serious advantage, because there are no NBA-height professional climbers. Average height of climbers is probably equal to or lower than national averages.
