      I think it's partly because he spends a lot of time with/reporting on world class climbers like Magnus. So he feels like he's not that good compared to the very best even though he is much better than an average climber.

    I think the ice kind of removes the element of speed climbing that it's almost entirely down to muscle memory being the same route. Like speed climbing skill on ice probably translates a little better to normal ice climbing than the indoor rock versions.

      @bennordstrom 2 года назад +4

      @@imbaguitar Yeah, it's a good point. Just like the 100m sprint is measuring the fastest runner on that specific layout (straight flat ground for 100m), the speed comps measure the fastest time on that specific climbing route. I think part of the problem is that there is nothing really great or interesting about THAT route that somehow got established as the one we need to care about testing times on. It's a weird assortment of jugs that are not really laid out to test some specific thing. Where as a flat, straight track has obvious value as a baseline for testing running speed.

    • @jakobjas4212
      @jakobjas4212 2 года назад +3

      @@imbaguitar you’re comparing apples to oranges. Climbing as a sport has an almost infinite range of moves, interpretations of beta, styles of climbing which running simply doesn’t have. Speed wall removes all of those variables. It would be similar to having a hangboard comp at world cup events to see who can hang off a 20mm edge the longest. It’s climbing relevant but it eliminates 95% of the variables that makes climbing what it is as a sport. You don’t even have to change the speed route that much each time, but enough to make it require climbing skill and not just muscle memory.
