back-flip knee bar.... "he obviously has gone through some sort of portal" BAHAHAHAHA "he is beginning to believe... he is the ONE" LOL

The 360 no-scope on problem 4 is pretty nifty. LOL "That's the sound of Ryan stepping away." Hilarious commentary from the both announcers.

A lot more interesting to watch the the usual spectator sports I think. Really get a look at the competitors struggling to solve problems and the wonderful athleticism in general. Can't wait for the Olympics...

The commentary is just so damn good :) Nice job! Also good setting and team spirit of the athletes. That truly is what the modern climber is!

Great format viewing the climbers together. Climbing has always been about comradery and friendship. Thx

It's not a good format. The late comer usually gets the benefits by watching someone else who already exhausted their energy in the routes - especially those routes that are more draining e.g. how megan had experimented and found the beta for route 3 but was exhausted and someone else came and followed her sequence which would be more efficient and energy saving.

this format depends on all of the competitors being able to do all of the problems. If say problem 2 is dialled a little too hard, there's a bottleneck where the field just doesn't move on from there. Different people have different styles. I'd like to see the competitors have a chance on all of the boulders rather than knockout on bodes 1-3

"It is possible they hid a warp whistle in the course somewhere.." lol this guy is great.

Haha men number 3. One guy starts by taking his shirt off, then another one, then Joe is like yeah we're doing this? Then takes his shirt off and finaly gets it haha. The Magnus effect.

I don't mind the format. It awards perseverance and versatility. The setting was pretty interesting. Also competitors can work on problems longer and still take the win if a later problem suits their style

I think the sequential gate format would be better if there was a problem per competitor, and the route was circular, so that if you start on problem 6, your next set is 1, then 2, etc.

That 360 no scope line was gold.

It is an interesting format to see competitors together, talk about the boulders and try longer !

A lot more interesting to watch than all the usual spectator sports I think. Really get a look at competitors struggling to solve problems and the wonderful athleticism in general...

Really cool format!

Most entertaining commentary of all time

1:23:24 the move and the commentary later... "he starts to believe, he is the one" :D :D :D

That's a hell of a thumbnail!

I feel so deeply for Chloe’s hamstrings, having to work on problem 3 for that long

That fist bump denied at 6:47 is so brutal haha

First climber- Zebra top. Cheetah bottom. Epic!

Interesting concept. Absolutely dreadful camera work though. Zooming in at the wrong points, missing some crucial catches, and not zooming in when it matters.

1:52:13 'were gonna send that to 23 and me' LMAOO

6:43 - uh oh

Can this guy comment every comp 😂

1:33.0 I loved when the camera was on Duffy and Kaito just comes flying in frame off his problem 😂

"As I would be carted out" monster hunter reference? 45:15 Portal ledge, setup a tent: 55:28 It's the 360 no-scope: 1:33:52

6:47 left her hanging ouch

this commentary is pure comedy

1:05:28 it's for me don't click

Anyone notice that after the second girl cleared the problem 1, after sienna, Sienna went to give her a pound 👊 and she totally got left hangin! Haha 😢

And OH SHIT! Meagan Martin is participating! Haha I always only see her commentating! And on American Ninja Warrior

I'm not a climber, but it seems like this format where you can't progress sort of matches real rock climbing. People travel to a particular rock and spend days or weeks trying to climb one route. They must be used to the feeling.

The format is great, the wall design is great, the commentary is great, the camera work is bad.

Why does it seem to be a theme with bouldering competitions that they have just the absolute worst camera people working?

Is this parkour or climbing ?

The tall guy with the red bun isn't staring M2 correctly (both hands on the start hold)

As usual amateurish camera work, it;s too bad because the competitors did well.

camera quality and framerate is really bad.

He said it. This is becoming more parkour than rock climbing. Is it merging with American Ninja Warrior?

My dumbass just discovered competitive climbing yesterday & it's pretty cool. Still kinda confused about the terms they use, but entertaining to watch.

Camera work?

16:53 what for an bad camara work the whole time ...

W2 was evil lol, a problem that should be absolutely no problem for any climber of this level but each subsequent failure instills more and more fear

i loved the commentary, very entertainig

He is becoming the one...

FUN!!

6:45 big oof

nice commentary :D

As a non-climbing spectator I have to say that this apparently chaotic presentation is an obstacle to wider appreciation of these splendid athletes’ abilities. Climbers may understand what’s going on but to me it looks like a random free-for-all, I feel I have little hope of understanding who’s doing better or worse; like being further along the course isn’t necessarily good because the others are watching you work through the problem. I feel like the men’s comp was won by someone without so much problem-solving ability just on pure muscle and copying the guy who figured it out before him. If this sport wants to gain a wider audience the format really needs some work. I assume the Olympics will be nothing like this. Amazing abilities though!

Strange format

1:22:37

Not a fan of downward dyno's.

poor jo :(

4:17 Humor shutdown.

Seriously wtf is wrong with this camera work? Which amateur is directing this? Are you kidding me?

bad format. you can have a guy flash the first 4 boulders and get hung up on the last one and come in last place

1:34:00 boomer whamen lul

Написать вам по русски хоть что-нибудь =)

Stupid format of competition in my opinion... Not being authorized to attempt all boulders because competitors need to complete one to go to the next... never seen this before and hope to not see this in the futur.

missing the men's winning ascent because you're away asking about kneepads... that commentator has definitely got his priorities straight.

The commentators make me uncomfortable, they don't seem like they hang out together very often hahaha

The robust packet energetically intend because ghana yearly meddle during a rabid steven. grumpy, grandiose meeting

Damn Joe got arrogant and gave away too much beta probably thinking no one can pass no.4. Big lead on the last problem to being excluded from top 3, yikes.

ahh why are dudes taking off their shirts? you don't see women taking off their shirt when they got hot...ugh!
