Couple of corrections - Oriane Bertone grew up in Réunion, not Fontainebleau. That's where she trains with the French team and where her coach lives. - French climber Zélia Avezou also qualified for the women's combined event at Paris 2024. - Aleksandra Miroslaw's record stands at 6.84 seconds instead of 6.97 seconds as of the date of the video. - In the schedule overview, August 9th should say men boulder & lead final instead of semi-final.
One more correction: the Chinese climber is called "Zhilu Luo (Zhilu is pronounced jee-loo, Luo sounds like loo-oh but in one syllable)" not "Zhilo Lou"
This year is definitely interesting, because in the men's there is a big question who is gonna win in the normal combined format. There is no clear number one, because Adam Ondra is definitely over his peak, atleast in comps. And in the women's, although there is a clear number one, janja, it might definitely happen that one of the newcomers can beat her. And climbers like jessi pilz should definitely not be overlooked. So excited to finally see what climbing at the olympics should actually look like (because last time people were robbed)
I agree. Last time was a weird experience. I'm glad we'll be able to see the sport shine in its more sensable form! I hope for an amazing performance out of Adam, but the field is so stacked it could go so many directions... Stoked!
@@jaivl1106Well he isn't the most consistent boulderer, but definitely the most successful competition lead climber. As an Austrian I very much hope the boulders will be in his favour, but I could very well see Sorato, Toby and many others to take Gold!
I'm a Slovenian, but despite Janja remaining the favorite I gotta admit...both Brooke Rabutou and Miho Nonaka have seriously stepped up their game since the last Olympics and so long as the pressure doesn't get to them, I wouldn't be too surprised if either of them manage to take the gold. Add to that the fact that you also have some very interesting new contestants making their debut that managed to get p high-ranked scores in the qualifiers and yeah...this year genuinely feels like it could be anybody's game in the women's section and as much as I'll always be hoping Janja manages to pull off an Olympics hat trick with 3 consecutive golds, I also welcome the competition wholeheartedly because it makes the whole thing so much more interesting to watch.
I don't understand why competitions like swiming have so many medals, and one person can win wo many medals, yet they don't want to separate climbing. It is better that they separated Speed from the other two, but lead and bouldering are also really different.
Just a question, in minute 8:21 that it shows the Olympic Climbing Schedule, at Friday 9, it would be "MEN BOULDER & LEAD FINAL instead "MEN BOULDER & LEAD SEMI-FINAL" isn't it?. Anyway, a great video, congratulations...
Its going to be Janja, Grossman and some random girl and for men it will be Shubert and Tamoa with a random guy. Ondra will finish somewhere in the middle. He doesn't take comps serisously anymore and spends most of the time making outdoor climbing videos. Alberto is an interesting contender because he doesnt do very well in the circuit but he seems to peek well and perform when it really matters.
The Qualifiers were streamed live on Olympics.com but I can't seem to find definitive information on whether they'll stream the actual olympic events there as well, which is why I didn't include it. The app is your easiest option for replays!
I don't see anyone beating Janja in a combined event if she has a normal day. In a single lead event, yes. In a single boulder event, maybe. But the athletes with chances are different athletes for the two disciplines. A normal-day-Janja in a combined event is currently unbeatable.
kinda weird that your script formatting makes oriane seems like a sidenote strong athlete from france and sorato is just this good japanese climber with something to prove (which he is). one is someone who actually beat Janja once, and the other is the upcoming young super rookie with the most hype right now (not saying he's definitely the best, just most hyped atm).
The field is really stacked so I think there's a lot of different ways to frame things that can make sense. I mainly wanted to highlight the French male and female climbers individually since France is hosting the Olympics. I should've shouted out Zélia Avezou to be honest in retrospect! Probably forgot to update my script after qualis. If the games were in another country, the French team would've probably been part of the phrase about dominant climbing countries ;) I'd never dream of disrespecting Japanese climbers so that's why I put them up front. Go Sorato!
I don't get why speed climbing can be an Olympic Sport by itself, its always the same route. Like, if climbing was a video game lead+boulder would be like trying to get the score WR and speed would be like trting to get a speedrun in a side quest... No offense to speed climbers, it looks amazing tho
Because every other big climbing comp has lead and boulders combined and that’s what these athletes are used to so they are just keeping it the same as every other major comp
@@charlottetomlinson3348 Maybe true, but it still makes sense to divide all three disciplines. Bouldering and lead are differendt enough. We have a gazillion of swimming events yet only 1 real climbing one. (speed climbing is something different entirely).
I hope Mori Ai does well, though she never seems to dyno, and that is a much needed skill. But Janja will win unless she becomes injured in the next month, becomes sick or just has a foot slip or something like that. The men side is totally open. Good luck to all.
I agree. Ai often seems to find an alternative solution though, which makes watching her perform so interesting. I hope she'll get the opportunity to showcase her ability and doesn't get ruled out because of a size-difference like in Innsbruck...
Nice video for people who are not yet familiar with the sport. There is a small mistake in your Olympic Climbing Schedule. On Friday August 9th is the Men Finals not the Men Semi-Finals ;)
Appreciate the attempt to pronounce all names as authentic as possible. A nice change from the usual English native speakers who cannot and will not speak any other language.
Thanks, Klimmerick! I always make the extra effort. My girlfriend was actually on the couch next to me to check my pronunciation of the Korean's climbers' names
I understand the sentiment, but that was a rather rude and passive-aggressive way to put it 😅 “who cannot and will not speak another language” like jeez lol sorry they don’t know how to speak another language, what a horrible crime! 😂
My predictions for the combined format: Men: 1st Anraku Sorato 2nd Jakob Schubert 3rd Toby Roberts Women: 1st Janja Garnbret 2nd Ai Mori 3rd Natalia Grossman
You're right! For some reason I thought she grew up in Font, but I checked and she just trains there with the French team... 🌲Thanks for pointing it out et mes excuses à tous mes amis réunionnais. Heureusement, ils sont trop occupés à faire du bodyboard et du surf pour regarder cette vidéo?
Ive been wondering, why do climbing never actually got its big break and become popular, like swimming, running, tennis, cycling etc? Sure there were a few trendy moments here and there but it never really got off, you dont see household names like M.Phelps, or Usain Bolt, Lewis etc despite also being a power/endurance sport heck im sure even badminton is more popular.
@@joaosoares7446 I can see bronze happening. If the scoring is the same as it was last year (multiply your position in lead by the position in boulder) she could win lead and go like 7th in bouldering for a total of 7 points. You need second in bouldering and 3rd in lead to beat that which I can realistically only see the Korean girl do, Oriane Bertone or one of the USA girls.
@@suckieduckie in my opinion seo (korea girl) its very good in lead but not so much in bouldering so the 2-3 seems hard, and orianne its a bit the oposite, way better at bouldering and not so much at lead. I would say natalia and brooke are the better all rounders (besides janja ofc). I would say they jave the advantage in the format to grab medals, specially Natalia. There is jessica with incredible lead skills and solid bouldering and erin (british young girl) with her current form and amasing qualifeirs, can get a high position imo. I really think ai mori will struggle to get a medal.
honestly, yes! there’s a reason why all three event are done separately in competitions. i don’t get why other sports don’t have their groups messed up but climbing does. but at least speed is separated, because speed requires the most distinctly different skill set, with it having the exact same wall every single time. (i’m biased since my country’s athletes are speed athletes mostly, lol)
Omg thank you I am so excited. I've never watched the Olympics but I've discovered bouldering in 2019 and this year Janja Garnbret and I just need to watch it!
As an indonesian the fact that speed climbing was added to the climbing category was huge for us and I'm hoping for at least bronze for Rita Kusuma Dewi
this is awesome if anyone has a keen interest in other olympic sports and could tell me videos like this breakdown for them it would make my day id watch it all
1) Jakob 2) Sorato 3) Alberto HM: Tomoa Scoring is somewhat favorable to dominant lead climbers, where a in-form Alberto seems a step ahead of anyone but Jakob. 1) Janja 2) Grossman 3) Mori HM: Oriane No surprises here... Perfectly possible Grossman tops every boulder and loses anyway.
There is a max of 100 p for bouldering and lead each. Each boulder gives you 25 p for the top and has 2 zones that award 5 or 10 points, you subtract 0.1 p for each unsuccessful attempt. With lead each reached hold gives one progressively more points as one goes up the wall. At the bottom holds score 0 p. but as a competitor climbs higher the start getting 1p each for one section, this progresses to 2, 3 to a max of 4. The 4 points start at the 60 p marker, making the points really shoot up with the last couple of moves. Points are just added up and whoever scores the most wins.
Toby Roberts gold for the men, Janja for the women. Alberto could get a podium, but there's a lot of talent battling, Adam Ondra is the GOAT but may not even medal.
Que bien que decidieron separar la competencia de velocidad, no tenía ningún sentido juntarla con las otras dos modalidades. Ahora sí van a tener una competencia muy reñida en los Juegos Olímpicos, va a estar bueno 👌🏽✨
Hey, great vedio Walrus. And definitly rooting for Janja. But also looking forward to Miho's performance. Also, btw, her last name is Nonaka instead of Nanaka(2:34) XD
ive just gotten interested in the sport the last couple of months and must say, to me, speed looks like an aberration and a waste of joints. the finesse, endurance, strength and most importantly the cooperative spirit being seen in the other two, for now combined disciplines are amazing
Personally, I have zero interest in speed climbing. I might try the route one day out of curiosity but I couldn't imagine an amateur speed climbing scene enjoying the sport... There's way too much fun to be had in boulder and lead and actual rock climbing (oudoors I mean).
Great Video ! I I'd like to make a correction concerning Orianne Bertonne. She grew in la Réunion, a french overseas department, that's where she did her first v13/24 at the age of 12. Nonetheless the content of your video is great ;)
Very nicely done with this video! Informative and thoroughly enjoyable to watch 👍🏻👍🏻 I’m most excited to cheer on Brooke Raboutou, Colin Duffy and the other U.S. athletes… but at the same time, there are so manu great athletes from around the world to cheer for!
@@walrusclimbing I appreciate that! Haha and I’m all in for a friendly rivalry 😁 Team USA all the way for me 🇺🇸 And it’s permissible to cheer for Adam Ondra no matter which country you’re from 😄
I think Janja will definitely win for woman’s boulder/lead, while Natalia grossman will make the podium. For men, it guessing that Sorato will get gold with Toby Roberts making the podium
The subtitles are correct! I found out my mistake after recording. Aleksandra Miroslaw climbed the record (6.84) in the qualifiers in Rome and 6.97 was her time in the finals to qualify.
I don't get all the Ondra hype, competitivly he was never very dominant. Megos is a name, but germany is not good at competitions (but i like Hannah Meul). The female competitions are always more exciting for me since the field is very divers and has lots of very good athletes. Mens competitions are somehow not so exciting, i like the japanese and schubert but i feel the overall level is not as high. Thx 4 the breakdown btw :)
Glad you enjoyed the video! Ondra is the GOAT though! He's like the spiritual leader of the climbing community. Raw talent, extreme dedication and an amazing career of hard sends outside and closets full of medals. People will always be rooting for him
@@walrusclimbing Yeah definitly, i am only following ISFC Championships and not much else regarding climbing so i guess my opinion is pretty narrow minded :)
I don't know how you can call Ondra "not very dominant" in competitions. In men's climbing, he is one gold medal away from being the most successful competition climber ever behind Schubert, and is still the ONLY climber to have won World Championships and World Cup series in both lead and bouldering, something Schubert hasn't achieved. He has a pretty good case to be considered the greatest competition climber ever, and that's not even considering his feats outside of competitive climbing wall. He's the only top outdoor rock climber to have an equally impressive competition record. I do agree however that he's not the favourite at the Olympics this year, but that's understandable considering he's not in his prime anymore, father time waits for no one. Schubert is an exception obviously, but that's rare
@@psycho122333 It was my impression that his performance in the past 2-3 years in the IFSC Worldcups was often underwhelming. His whole career is definitly impressive but Schubert just has a very strong consistency that i don't see with Ondra. Personally rooting for Toby Roberts at the Olympics, he impressed me quite alot lately. Cheers
Couple of corrections
- Oriane Bertone grew up in Réunion, not Fontainebleau. That's where she trains with the French team and where her coach lives.
- French climber Zélia Avezou also qualified for the women's combined event at Paris 2024.
- Aleksandra Miroslaw's record stands at 6.84 seconds instead of 6.97 seconds as of the date of the video.
- In the schedule overview, August 9th should say men boulder & lead final instead of semi-final.
One more correction: the Chinese climber is called "Zhilu Luo (Zhilu is pronounced jee-loo, Luo sounds like loo-oh but in one syllable)" not "Zhilo Lou"
I’m rooting for the GOAT 🐐 Janja 🤩
Yeah, Same here
Indonesian pride here! 🇮🇩 Thanks for including our country in your video :)

What about points for using less time/ being quick?
0.1 is deducted for every try, but time on the wall doesn't matter unless you fully run down the clock :)

💔Sorry Switzerland! Good luck to Sascha!
still confused about scoring system. hopefully there will be a dedicated video for it. with examples would be the best.
Yeah, it's not the easiest to follow but once you've seen a comp using it, it becomes quite clear!
There is a max of 100 p for bouldering and lead each. Each boulder gives you 25 p for the top and has 2 zones that award 5 or 10 points, you subtract 0.1 p for each unsuccessful attempt.
With lead each reached hold gives one progressively more points as one goes up the wall. At the bottom holds score 0 p. but as a competitor climbs higher the start getting 1p each for one section, this progresses to 2, 3 to a max of 4. The 4 points start at the 60 p marker, making the points really shoot up with the last couple of moves.
Points are just added up and whoever scores the most wins.
Female athletes are competing for the silver, we all know who’s gonna get gold
I hope Moroni or Rogora takes the podium
Should make it at least 3 events. 🤔 Still, it's great we have climbing at the Olympics!
Toby Roberts gold for the men, Janja for the women. Alberto could get a podium, but there's a lot of talent battling, Adam Ondra is the GOAT but may not even medal.

@@walrusclimbing I appreciate that! Haha and I’m all in for a friendly rivalry 😁 Team USA all the way for me 🇺🇸 And it’s permissible to cheer for Adam Ondra no matter which country you’re from 😄
@@augustclimbing Let's reconvene here in August
@@walrusclimbing sounds perfect! 😁
Janja! 🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮

Dang, it's time to stay late up...
Where will you be watching from?
Janja & Megos! But I'd love for Duffy to have a great games!
So excited to see all these climbers shine!
I would be rooting Sorato in Men and Ai Mori in Women.
🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵
@@walrusclimbing Yeah, also looking for Toby Robert
really appreciated your pronunciation, genuinely so good!
Thank you so much!
I will go out on a limb here and show some support for Adam Ondra & Janja Garnbret, call me crazy but I have a good feeling about those two! 🎉
They'll like that!
I just started watching bouldering a few days ago - watched VoDs of Olympics Qualifiers. I'm SOOOO excited for the competition! I can't wait! :D
Welcome to the club! 😃
Welcome! Watching climbing made me obsessed with actually climbing 😁
@@StudioHannah You're at the right address in that case!
Goede video en leuk om een Belgisch kanaal te zien! Misschien word je op een dag nog Sporza presentator! Blijf dan even bescheiden :-)
Ik zal nooit veranderen!
I’m rooting for Brooke! But the female roster is stacked. Gonna be interesting to watch.
Yeah, it'll be fireworks!! Tomorrow!!
यहाँ इंडोनेशियाई गौरव! आपके वीडियो में हमारा देश :) शामिल करने के लिए धन्यवाद. 🇮🇩
Sama sama! Congratulations on the gold speed medal 🇮🇩
What if several climbers all get 100 points or is that very unlikely?
Hi, IFSC rules apply so the tie would probably be resolved their ranking from the preceding round.
Super cool video, thanks!
You're welcome!
I think Janja will definitely win for woman’s boulder/lead, while Natalia grossman will make the podium. For men, it guessing that Sorato will get gold with Toby Roberts making the podium
Damnit because i ll be on a festival from 7-12th of august :D oh well gotta watch it afterwards than
Oriane grew up in Reunion not Fontainebleau
Hi Philippe, this has been pointed out and corrected in the pinned comment! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for making this video; Brook Rabatou is my girl!
Nice video, thanks
Thanks Jorgen!
Cheering for Zach Hammer because he’s from my home climbing gym.
I am rooting for Mel! Sò very proud...❤❤❤
Goeie video
Bedankt, Koen!
Small question about the speed olympic record for women the subtitles say 6.84 but you said 6.97 , so I wanted to ask which one is true
The subtitles are correct! I found out my mistake after recording. Aleksandra Miroslaw climbed the record (6.84) in the qualifiers in Rome and 6.97 was her time in the finals to qualify.
I can't wait to watch the climbing events. I've been following the qualifiers and World Cup events.
Yeaaaah, stoked as well 🔥
Janja so amazing, and one of the two Indonesian women in speed climbing
Yeeha!!
Thank you very much - really usefull video.
Thank you for watching! ❤️
ADA INDONESIAAA COYYY LFG INDO
Semoga berhasil!
I don't get all the Ondra hype, competitivly he was never very dominant. Megos is a name, but germany is not good at competitions (but i like Hannah Meul). The female competitions are always more exciting for me since the field is very divers and has lots of very good athletes. Mens competitions are somehow not so exciting, i like the japanese and schubert but i feel the overall level is not as high. Thx 4 the breakdown btw :)
Glad you enjoyed the video! Ondra is the GOAT though! He's like the spiritual leader of the climbing community. Raw talent, extreme dedication and an amazing career of hard sends outside and closets full of medals. People will always be rooting for him
@@walrusclimbing Yeah definitly, i am only following ISFC Championships and not much else regarding climbing so i guess my opinion is pretty narrow minded :)
I don't know how you can call Ondra "not very dominant" in competitions. In men's climbing, he is one gold medal away from being the most successful competition climber ever behind Schubert, and is still the ONLY climber to have won World Championships and World Cup series in both lead and bouldering, something Schubert hasn't achieved. He has a pretty good case to be considered the greatest competition climber ever, and that's not even considering his feats outside of competitive climbing wall. He's the only top outdoor rock climber to have an equally impressive competition record.
I do agree however that he's not the favourite at the Olympics this year, but that's understandable considering he's not in his prime anymore, father time waits for no one. Schubert is an exception obviously, but that's rare
@@psycho122333 It was my impression that his performance in the past 2-3 years in the IFSC Worldcups was often underwhelming. His whole career is definitly impressive but Schubert just has a very strong consistency that i don't see with Ondra. Personally rooting for Toby Roberts at the Olympics, he impressed me quite alot lately. Cheers
Ai Mori, Sorato Anraku, Tomoa Narasaki!
