Awesome, thanks mate! I feel like the route was a tad to easy for all the tops but at the same time I love seeing these incredible women crushing it too.
French commentators on Eurosport talked about Janja Garnbret 9b+ project that would make her the first woman to ascend this level but if I am not wrong Laura Rogora who finished second this time is already the first woman to have climbed a 9b+ 🧗 congrats to Laura who can perform in competition as well as on rock ‘ amazing standards 👍 and congrats to all competitors ‘ beautiful show and performances ‘ Special shout out to Brook Raboutou I had the chance to meet when she was what 4 maybe 5 years old she was running and climbing everywhere already 😆 true champion seed 😉
@@Andy_JK0 check Erebor 😉 originally set up by Stefano Ghisolfi who suggested 9b+ Laura sent it but Adam Ondra climbed it too and devalued to 9b lol 😆 anyway congrats to Laura and Janja really strong climber on rock though 😮💨
On one hand you have countback to semis, (in this case toping the semis route) which means that the athlete was consistent throughout the whole competition and was able to climb a lot of different moves / routes. On the other hand you have time on the final route, which indicates that the athlete climbs really quickly with good and efficient technique, without taking a lot of rests (--> strong and has a lot of endurance). So yeah I couldn't choose either between these two so having a mix of both like IFSC are doing might be the best choice at the moment (sorry for bad English I have COVID and my brain is functioning at half speed 😅)
Sport climbing isn’t about speed (there’s speed climbing for that), so I think it makes sense that speed isn’t the first factor to consider. As a matter of fact the time limit has been introduced in competitions mostly to make the show more enjoyable to the public, but within the discipline time has never been considered a crucial measure of a climber’s ability
When Stasa retires from comps (which is hopefully not anytime soon), they should get her as a permanent commentator
100%!

Thank you!

Laura has "only" climbed 9b, won't be surprised if she does climb 9b+ at some point though

Seo climbed the final faster than Janja, pretty impressive. The rules are a bit weird.

@@tillo83 yeah I guess it makes sense.
What is the approximate grade of the World Cup routes?
Once they said final's routes are around 8b/c, but it's very approximate. Cheers
Where is men comp?
Semi speed climbing :D
