These are the best commentators I've heard by far. They actually know what they're talking about and have interesting things to say about the climbers.
I think they would be a good fit for the Olympics as they define climbing terms even if they're simple (for example when they explain what a flash is) making it more enjoyable to watch for non climbers.
Haha, you knew adam was going to enjoy that boulder when shaking out his arm on the starting hold like that, but I didn't expect him to enjoy it thàt much. Awesome!
I like M4's setting because it brings closer of indoor bouldering and outdoor climbing. Indoor bouldering was all started from mimicking the actual outdoor climbing but you can use it as a practice and train on techniques. Throughout time it became its own sports and they somehow diverted. With no limitation of setting the problem, all these dynos, body coordinations moves become popular in indoor bouldering. There are also a lot of good climbers that never or seldom do outdoor climbing. M4 is like a wake-up call saying, "hey, we do have other styles of climbing too". Also, crack climbing can be tricky and hard too, but having not had a problem like this in bouldering since forever, this is a good start to bring this type of climbing to the competition wall. There should never be a limit on what you can build for a problem, multiple dynos, super crimps, crack climbing, slab, etc. A well-balanced set of problems should try to be diversed among the problems. That is what a competition should be.
The reason bouldering is more dynamic is to allow climbers to have multiple attempts and have it be entertaining. If it were like outdoor bouldering it would be crimps and cracks, with few attempts because they're so demanding and very boring to watch. It is after all, a spectator sport.
If you want to mimic outdoor then you can do lead climbing, which should have crack climbing in it, but bouldering isn't meant to mimic the slow methodological climbing that's done outdoors.
The way Ondra pissed all over M4 was amazing, especially after the others struggling and failing on it. I really enjoyed Meiringen last year (if my memory is correct) the setting was very dynamic with lots of jumps and it was really exciting to watch, but this was fantastic hard climbing setting. Really looking forward to the rest of the season!
@@Deathranger999 All the comments are so hyped for Ondra just for this win. While the whole Japan team and Jongwon have been super impressive for years. Tomoa again, in this final, he was super smooth. His M2 flash was awesome, especially since he is a shorter climber. But now we here, people calling Japan climbers ninja's or not-real-rock climbers, including Jongwon (he is not even dynamic). Totally disregarding their hard work and achievements. Wtf is this shit.
troaksia troaksia Yeah. I understand the complaints of people who don’t like the newer competition style, but many of them take it too far, and I also understand why many competition boulders are set in that style. I don’t think praising Ondra is bad, either; clearly the parent comment was meant in good faith. I just wanted to bring attention to the way Jongwon adapted to the boulder and made it fit into his style, rather than trying something that he knew wouldn’t work out for him.
@@Deathranger999 Yes, I understand the aversion for the prominence of dynamic coordination bouldering. But it has formed a bad sentiment within all climbing community. It's so unfortunate. They can spread their hate for what they call parkour (it's not even close). That's totally fine. Everyone is dropping Ondra's name against the dynamic style. But also Jongwon is not very dynamic but more of a power climber, similar to Ondra. No one is dropping his name, except you. Tomoa was actually the most competent to win this final. Till M3 he had the best scoring. He has a very efficient climbing style and his beta reading is off the charts. But I haven't seen anyone drop his name at all. Just wonder, if there is also some anti-asian sentiment in the climbing community.
@@xl000I hate to say it, but I disagree. There’s a couple problems. 1. How in the world do you measure that without offending people? 2. If you train, you get slimmer. None of them will be able to train without worrying about losing their spots 3. Idk if you’ve tried climbing, but it is hard. If you are carrying a lot of weight, you can’t grab small stuff or do big moves. We will be watching people do V1s and V2’s for the whole thing. There’s no stream like that for other sports. No obese/overweight basketball, no obese/overweight badminton etc. and if there is, no one watches it bc it is so fun to see this insanely talented people do crazy moves. It’s a good idea, but for climbing it won’t work, just because how the sport is.
I loved watching the observation period: it's easy to see that these athletes have a huge amount of respect for each other; you can see them exchanging words, information, smiling... They respect each other's level enough that they don't feel the need to be super secretive about problem reading: in the end the better climbers will win. Sportsmanship at its finest.
IMO Ondra finishing the M4 with a flash at 1:54:00 wasn‘t the best moment of this competetion. It was just after, at 1:55:00, how the other athletes reacted
Totally agree. They were so stoked to see Ondra crush that boulder. Just smiles all round. I'm really glad the cameras showed the couches at the end. With everyone puzzling over hand positions.
It's like that at the gym. It seems like competition doesn't take them out of that encouraging mentality. Indoor bouldering community is easily one of the best communities I've been involved with over multiple hobbies and disciplines.
This is what I love about the bouldering community. I only have experience from my local gym, but if you send a boulder you will often find random people cheer and give you fist bumps. It's good to see that mentality is present, even in a competition like this.
People who don't know what is a climbing mood, problem reading and competitor relationship should look at 13:40... The synchronicity of the two is amazing.
Tomoa just looks so smooth! And the way he climbed the third boulder, sitting on top of that one hold instead of over to the right like the others. However, it's a big mistake to not be able to do an entire technique imo. Adam got lucky with the crack, but the japanese definitely should've at least been a bit better at it if they want to call themselves the best of the world. I hope they will be at the olympics!
I saw m4 and was like: ondra flashes this 100%. And after seeing the others struggle at those hand jams I knew it. Adam ondra is in a great shape. And I really like those rock climbing skills like Crack climbing beening tested in bouldering
I agree completely, I would love to see the occasional hand/fist/finger crack being thrown into ifsc comps. It’s an essential technique for any pro climber and I’m glad they tested that
Ondra looked pretty mediocre on the first couple of boulders though to be fair and he only looked good on the last one because he could hand jam and the other couldn't. It wasn't that he was better, the others had clearly never even attempted it before.
@@David-ud9ju "It wasn't that he was better, the others had clearly never even attempted it before." that's kind of the definition of better. they hadn't practiced or perfected it like he had. Likewise he wasn't as smooth on earlier boulders because they are not his usual style, which is why he's there, to learn.
Wow this competition was amazing. Everyone seemed to be doing their best and the boulders were just great and fun to watch. But what I like most about these competitions is how everyone seems to get along so well with each other, especially in the beginning when they look at the routes. Oh and I am glad Shauna Coxsey is back in her old form
Still can't believe Akiyo failed W2... Really too bad for her. Was happy to see Shauna nearly back to business. And a final without Miho just dosen't feel the same...
riricky815 Magnus Midtbo has a great climbing Vlog. Last week he posted several video's of him learning how to Crack Climb and Hand Jam from the Wide Boyz. Might of helped the rest of the contestants here. Lol If you haven't checked out Magnus's UA-cam channel give it a look!
@@riricky815 Eric karlsson bouldering is quite known and do climbing vlog too. In an other fashion they're is Relais Verticale that I like a lot with a more documentary style (it's in French but they're dub)
I know there’s a bit of debate on the Narasaki and Ondra, but I’m just grateful to see this Men’s Finals with my favorite line up. It was great seeing them interact and be happy for each other
Fantastic to see outdoor techniques being brought into competition climbing. Sometimes competition boulders look more like gymnastics and parkour than what actual climbing looks like.
Some people maybe do not realise that this is a world cup, yes, but also a training for Olympic. IFSC is investing a lot in that and IFSC athletes are getting prepared for all the disciplines. So it is not surprising to see different settings. Athletes need to be prepared to that, and combing lead and boulder techniques in the competitions is useful to the athletes! Japan team will now train cracks and they will have this expertise in Olympic. You're youtuber watching climbing, so search for a video in which Shauna explains she couldn't do a crack climbing in a competition so she tried it and then also applied it in outdoor boulder. Route setting was perfect because it combined equilibrium, dynamic moves etc (maybe they could just avoid too many shoulder-involving movements). Also, women's routes were finally difficult. Route setters were underestimating their strenghts last years! And last, always for the Olympic, next year climbing will be presented to a bigger audience all over the World. It seems obvious to me that people who don't know climbing have to relate this sport to something you can do in nature! They are going to show people that it is an indoor sport, but it is not different from what you can do outdoor and it is also not only jumping but physically hard sport!
M4 was the best set I've seen in watching ISCA and USA Climbing events for like 8 years. I've never seen a problem that might be graded as a moderate V literally shut down the whole field. Start on M1 was a bit contrived, but overall amazing problems for both groups. Can't wait for the next events if setting like this keeps going.
@@rcgdyegunswin same guy who tried to on sight the nose with his father, failed at the on-sight but then did not re-try to free it because he wanted to finish it in one day.... :P
2:46:20 'if there was any chance of your DJ career taking off you might just have sealed your own death warrant there" ... please I was drinking wine at the time... and nearly snorted it out my nose...laughing :)
starts at 2:46:03 hehe :) But they are wright from here on 2:45:23 and yes, what was that for a disco? I thought that was a climbing WORLD Cup, not a disco with some boulder show on the side. makes me a bit sad, all this mainstreaming and commercializing. The climbing gear gets more and more expensive as well. Hope we don't have Apple conditions here: function follows form. It costs double just because it looks good. And you can just do what the manifacturer said, every compatibility is restricted to gear from the same company. Lets think about harnesses, carabiners, belay devices, cams, etc just compatible within products of the same company! oO But let's not drift away. Great comp for the start, little too much "event" around it. And the crack surely was set because they knew that Ondra was competing and would certainly reach finals. Otherwise the boulder would have been a desaster.
As far as I know the past several years we have never seen such handjam problems in the competition. Of course it's kind of unprecedented, a sport climber might have never trained it. But the next time probably they will get learned and overcome it.
At Olympia. And the next world Championships. And the quali event for Olympia. But no mixed of male + female. That would be something for an event like the Arco Rockmasters or something.
Time doesn’t matter. The climber who has more tops wins. If tops are equal, you compare the number of zones. If still equal you count the number of attempts it took each climber to top. If still equal you count the number of attempts it took each climber to get the zones.
Aitor Méndez if two climbers have an equal result in the final, the count-back to femi-final is used. If after count-back to semi-final they are still tied, then the number of flashes are counted, then the number of tops in 2nd attempt etc... If that STILL wasn’t enough to break a tie (haha), the the number of zones attained on 1st attempt are counted, then on 2nd attempt... etc And if after all that the competitors are still tied, their result is considered equal - a tie :)
It looks like there is less parkour and more climbing. That is good!! I whish this trend of mixing parkour with climibng (incl. bouldering) would stop. Let them have their own comps. When it stops it will show who is the real climber again.
Crack climbing is not something even outdoor climbers are super familiar with! Meiringen is where new and positive innovations (in comps) are implemented!
These are the best commentators I've heard by far. They actually know what they're talking about and have interesting things to say about the climbers.

absolutly perfect - Adam Ondra
As far as I know the past several years we have never seen such handjam problems in the competition.
Of course it's kind of unprecedented, a sport climber might have never trained it. But the next time probably they will get learned and overcome it.
After that many world cup climbers probably will have some crack sessions.
Shauna got shut down on a crack move in finals a year or two back also.
It's fascinating seeing a super strong and talented route climber trying comp-style climbing. So different!
Does someone know why Oceania Mackenzie went from 4th to 6th in the final ranking?
Obviously, the zone in 3rd boulder at 2:53:00 was removed from her score. No idea why...
It was appealed as a false start. Looked pretty legitimate to me though?
Perfect routes and perfect comp
1:54:00 starts the magic
Amazing that a old school trad technique wins the day.
Ondra is already laughing his ass out when he first saw that last problem with the hand jam.
The title of this video should have been "East Asian Climbing Championship with Adam Ondra".

At Olympia. And the next world Championships. And the quali event for Olympia. But no mixed of male + female. That would be something for an event like the Arco Rockmasters or something.
A drink every time they say jam
Such an epic finish xD Amazing
great women's finals. The boulders seemed less easier than in previous finals.
what chalk bucket does janja garnbret use?
Why is counted as an attempt when the climber didn't get the start position?
no more on u tube... sad
Hi guys I have a doubt, if two climbers get the top, who win? The climber who has a better time set or climber who has less falls?
Time doesn’t matter.
The climber who has more tops wins. If tops are equal, you compare the number of zones. If still equal you count the number of attempts it took each climber to top. If still equal you count the number of attempts it took each climber to get the zones.
@@DavidAKSlo Thanks! :)
D KR Hi again! If two climbers make all boulders perfect who win? I mean that both climbers make it in one attempt (top and zone)
Aitor Méndez if two climbers have an equal result in the final, the count-back to femi-final is used.
If after count-back to semi-final they are still tied, then the number of flashes are counted, then the number of tops in 2nd attempt etc...
If that STILL wasn’t enough to break a tie (haha), the the number of zones attained on 1st attempt are counted, then on 2nd attempt... etc
And if after all that the competitors are still tied, their result is considered equal - a tie :)
D KR hahaha thanks so much!
Climbing starts at 26:25
Men's 4 is Joshua Tree 10c.
Or a vedauwoo 5.8-
can the next to climb competitors watch before it is their turn? isnt that unfair?
Nope, they are isolated in another area
When did they move away from the 4 minutes plus rule?
well over a year ago!
It looks like there is less parkour and more climbing. That is good!! I whish this trend of mixing parkour with climibng (incl. bouldering) would stop. Let them have their own comps.
When it stops it will show who is the real climber again.
Right on man, the parkour setting is so boring. More crimps!
Why are we seeing so many bleeding fingers these days? Is it all the extra climbing due to combined events?
Shauna!!!!!
Why is miho nonaka not in this
Larvitar Dratini
shoulder injury!😔
"Savagely physical number two"
Adam at 1:54:09 wow... piece of cake!!
Crack climbing is not something even outdoor climbers are super familiar with! Meiringen is where new and positive innovations (in comps) are implemented!
So... Adam Ondra takes on Japan?
are ped's legal in climbing?
for a second i really thought janja wouldn't win :D
The camera workshop makes me feel like motion sickness:s
Yep, awfully hard to see whats going on / decipher the boulder beforehand.
2:56:07 is the sickest send everrrr
