Why Climbing Grades Feel So Different Indoors vs Outdoors
Просмотров 6 тыс.Месяц назад
Ever wondered why a climbing grade can feel drastically different from one location to another? In this video, we dive deep into the "Climbing Grade Paradox" by comparing my struggles with a 5c in Fontainebleau to the ease of climbing the same grade at Rhino Boulder Gym in Ghent. We'll explore three main theories: the unique challenges of natural rock, the subjectivity of grading, and environme...

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...
definitely not the recent Innsbruck women's semi finals, ai mori boulder 1 was horrendous
Yeah that was painful to watch 😔
Hope your channel blows up soon! 🛫
Female athletes are competing for the silver, we all know who’s gonna get gold I hope Moroni or Rogora takes the podium
Zach Hammer trained at my gym for the longest time, kinda surreal to see him competing at the Olympics
I am rooting for the routesetters cuz they have to cook to perfection
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.
Really nice structured an edited content ! I think you forgot zelia avezou btw 😊
Yessss indeed! I forgot to add her when the qualifiers were done 😮
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.
Could you also do this next year for the qualifications?
Do you mean in four years at the next Olympics? Sure!
@@walrusclimbing yesss, because I dont understand it
Mark my words dohyun Lee takes home the gold this olympics
I'll grant him silver after Hannes Van Duysen 😇 That's the best I can do!
I’m rooting for him as well!
Would've been really helpful to know HOW best to watch it. Especially on replay, without seeing the results beforehand
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!
@@walrusclimbing thanks for the info! 🙏
Indonesian pride here! 🇮🇩 Thanks for including our country in your video :)
Damn I love Indonesia!
Miho Nonaka all the way 💘💘💘 it’s so fun to watch her climb with such power and grace PLUS her hair and makeup always slay 💯
She's fire! Will she beat Janja?
@@walrusclimbingwe will have to see! Janja is fire tho
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 :)
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.
Been booming a lot the past years! Lifestyle sports with an outdoor aspect are better off staying a little under the rader though in my opinion!
Everything you need to know, no one beats Janja
No doubt!
Dang, it's time to stay late up...
Where will you be watching from?
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!
This is the video i needed. Clear, concise. Great work mate. Thank you.
You’re welcome! Thanks for leaving a comment 🔥
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.
Let’s also split up the combined event in 2028! 🤓
@@walrusclimbingit's only fair!
My guess would be Jakob, Toby, Avezou, Sorato | Janja, Raboutou, Oriane, Grossman
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 ;)
Someone pointed it out indeed! I had no idea 😇 Thanks for watching closely!
@@walrusclimbing hahaha i'm sure he was french too ^^ no problem, It doesn't change the quality of the content ;)
My predictions: 1. Janja (bold choice i know) 2. Natalia 3. Seo Men: 1. Jakob 2. Sorato 3. Alberto
Solid podiums! 🔥
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...
Yes! I saw it after uploading 😭 Great to see people are actually watching till the end! ❤️
Adam ondra is the best no matter if he wins
Truth! 🔥❤️
Janja is 10x better than Ondra, why is there never a showdown between the 2
@@auberotte1794 That would probably break the universe!
We got a belgian dude in there? God damn
Yeessss! Join the hype train! 🇧🇪
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!
Alberto is peaking at the right time
It's so impressive how he was blasting through moves in the final rounds of the quaifiers when other climbers were looking more fatigued already...
you forgot sasche lehman for switzerland 🇨🇭??
💔Sorry Switzerland! Good luck to Sascha!
I will separate bouldering and lead to.
Haha, a purist! I love it 🤣
As much as I would love Ondra to take gold, Jakob is probably the favorite, man was unstoppable in 2023
He would make a fine champ!
agreed. jakob is in insane form atm
Nice video love the see belgium do well 😅
Go Hannes!!! Very nice video 😊
Thanks! Hannes naar de top!
Nice video, thanks
Thanks Jorgen!
ai mori cooking. she's gonna serve
That would be amazing. I love watching her climb!
I can see her beating Janja in lead, but there is no way anyone is beating Janja in bouldering.
@@suckieduckie this. ai will struggle to get a medal because of bouldering
@@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.
lol. Upset janja. not gonna happen
Oriane grew up in Réunion!
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?
Goeie video
Bedankt, Koen!
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).
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 ;)
Thanks for the compliment and for watching so closely!
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!
Jakob is probably a step ahead if he keeps his 2023 form: he's basically Tomoa's bouldering + Alberto's' lead.
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.
This is a Belgian channel...
@@gba.87 I know. Which is why I made the comment.
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
@@gba.87 Represent!
my predictions for men's boulder and lead are 1st Adam 2nd Tomoa 3rd Jakob but i would love if sorato or toby or dohuyn are able to get a medal, so those are the athletes im gonna be rooting for, while for the woman's side 1st Janja 2rd Brooke 3rd Miho here its just a battle for 2nd place but im confident Brooke is also gonna make the podium as well as an asian climber like miho, ai mori or luo Thanks for the video tho, very helpful
Those would be beautiful top threes!
Those are pretty likely predictions, but I dont think Adam will get first. Leaning toward Jakob, Toby Sorato
This video was so educative. Thanks!
Glad to be of help! Will you be watching the Olympics?
Who will you be rooting for the Sport Climbing podium at the Summer Olympic Games of 2024?
Who will you be rooting for?
Zolang het maar geen parkour gibbon ninja stijl is . Helaas is ifsc helemaal het noorden kwijt.
Meer klassieke power boulders bedoel je?
@@walrusclimbing inderdaad, check bijvoorbeeld laatste La Sportiva Legends , is wel apres travail competitie maar het geeft wel aan dat je geen parkour nonsense moet toevoegen voor mooie comp. Maar ik ben van de oude stempel en maak me geen illusies waar het moderne comp- boulderen verder naartoe gaat...
Yeah, ik denk dat een mooie balans belangrijk is. Hopelijk zien we op de spelen een goeie mix!
@@walrusclimbing ik denk van wel, de olympische qualies van afgelopen maand gaven mooie boulders, volgens mij andere setters dan de ifsc worldcups
