July 24, 20241 yr I hate how lead and bouldering are combined and really just want to watch the bouldering comp. Both the Bouldering/Lead and Speed climbing start on the 5th and will finish by the 8th. Hopefully Natalie and Brooke kick some ass. I'll watch the speed climbing but generally don't care about it. I believe Alex Hannold is going to do some commenting as he practiced some at Salt Lake City earlier in the year and was pretty fun to listen to as usual. Edited July 24, 20241 yr by SimonBolivar

They don't do speed but have all been competing in bouldering and sport since they were 7. Sam was a pretty run of the mill youth climber but found his mojo with speed.

July 28, 20241 yr Unfortunately on the women's side everyone is going to be competing for silver as long as Janja is healthy.

August 7, 20241 yr I'm watching a replay of women's speed. They look like squirrels going up a brick wall. The American just slippped and lost to an Indonesian.
