‍️ Men's Sport Climbing | Tokyo Replays

Coming back to watch 2 years later. The scoring system is horrible and does not reflect the best climber.

I really hope hope Adam qualifies for Paris. He’s such a legend and he missed out so narrowly on a medal here. I’d love to see him take one in Paris

Jakob celebrating his lead climb is so great and the you just see it hit 10 more levels when he finds out he got bronze👏🏻

you beat everyone, but lost to math

This sport is beautiful

Whichever TV executive decided to try to elevate the relevance of speed climbing, simply because it seems exciting for a non-climbing audience, should be fired.

Last boulder was undoubtedly the hardest of the three

Here’s a fact about Spain: The word “Matador” actually means “Killer” or “Butcher”, but is commonly used to describe bullfighters

Scoring system is so flawed, Tomoa would’ve been Olympic champion if he didn’t slip against Alberto; Ondra would’ve been gold medalist if it wasn’t for Schubert beating him in 1 event by a few holds. Nonetheless, a great competition displaying the athletes technical prowess. I’m glad Paris’ scoring system is way better!

27,40

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

As a non-climber, the only fun part was the lead climbing in this competition to watch.

Ginés wining gold because of the speed event... a real joke.

What an absolutely ridiculous scoring system this was. Just gross.

1. Sepperate the (3!) styles. Would you let Usain bolt compete in a marathon???
1,5. Thereby eleminate the stupid point system.
2. Have comentators who have climbed at least a ladder.... Once. They talk about jumping off a wall and just repeat stupid stuff, just say a dyno.
3. Better sepparation and variety in the boulders, no one took the intended beta on the last boulder, yikes.

Athletes did superb tho (y), just sad to see such a weird contest.

gotta apprecitate how the overall organization of the climbing events has improved since, especially commentators, too damp

A lot of people are complaining about the scoring system but for a climbing triathlon it makes sense when you look at the final results graphic. Every medalist took first in one sport. I'd really prefer they separated them out into 3 different competitions though. The finals for lead should be 3 different routes. The bouldering finals should be 4 boulders. And speed finals should be 4 time trial attempts at the same route, not a single short race for each bracket

All these athletes seem so happy to just do what they love it’s amazing!

I think Coleman was the best performer. He made the boulder climbing look very easy. The gold medalist did not really shine anywhere.

Do you know where we can see the women's JO ?

Vous savez où est-ce qu'on peut regarder celle des femmes ? Je ne le trouve pas sur ytb

Isn't it a bit of an unfair advantage to have all the other climbers go first and leave chalk on the holds that work?

Hello. What accent does the commentator speak with? Thanks.

i think a lot of these routes are too difficult and some are unfair to shorter climbers . The reach on some set ups is beyond the reach of some competitors .

Rewatching since I never got over this. I hope both these gentleman and the ladies comeback for the next Olympics hopefully they figure out a better scoring. Regardless, no doubt these people have talent and strength!

The only way I could see the difference is to just leave them alone until you have to do a few other projects

First time watching sport climbing and it may have become one of my favorite olympic sports to watch

Wooooow

Fun fact : Colin Duffy went to my school and the place I go rock climbing 🧗‍♂️







Edit: you were amazing Colin ❤🎉

who are the voices of these iconic announcers?

最近過去のオリンピック動画を見ることにハマっている

OMG ESPANA IS THE REAL MASSIVE COMEBACK ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏👏

Woahhhhh 🎉

So funny to see all the masks when we know today it was for nothing xD

Narasaki and Gines Lopez are so hot 🔥 🥵 😍

I hope they find some more knowledgeable commentators next time lol

They said they don’t even know if they can be done until they try them out! 😂😂

hmm... I'm not sure that the route setters did such a great job this time. when you have this many olympic level athletes that fail to top it just seems a bit off (plus everyone flashed the first one?). I would be interested to know if anyone at all was ever capable of getting top on the last boulder. hanging from a cliff face that's angled at 35 degrees by two finger tips just isn't feasible, and I'm not convinced that it's even possible to get a foot on that middle hold in the given situation. also, I feel like different styles were prioritized. definitely not ideal that multiple people basically got the same result over and over again.

also, all of these guys hands and wrists are covered in cuts, abrasions and blood. I really feel like the ability to withstand the pain of constant injury shouldn't be a factor in success when it comes to sports, and these routes really caused the atheletes pain.

scoring system was so scuffed lord

I discovered Ondra on other videos... His great mindset made me watch this video... And seeing him losing but cheering his time definitely confirm this guy has a great heart.

My new favourite word: artête. Could have at least gotten an IFSC commentator in no?

lame

so because of two steps from another athlete ondra went from #1 to #6??

What an awesome sport. So glad it's in the Olympics... rightfully so:)

love how theres just no commentary on any of the actual moves in the climbing. why would they not get commentators that actually climbed.

'And the title is going to go to Spain as Jacob tops out!'
This was and still is so weird to hear...
