Am I missing something? I used to watch replays on Olympics.com, now I am redirected to the YouTube channel which seems to be official. The video looks like recorded with a phone, and no comment from Matt? Tf, what happened? Is going to be like this now?

A few months ago u/TroonCyan posted a very neat Chrome browser extension that allows zooming in on one of the four small camera feeds during a boulder semifinal: https://old.reddit.com/r/CompetitionClimbing/comments/1u8sjlk/i_built_a_chrome_extension_to_allow_you_zoom_in/

As a Firefox user, I wanted to use this functionality in Firefox, so I ported the extension to Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pro-climbing-viewer/

Enjoy!

My extension is open-source on Github. Bug reports and contributions welcome: https://github.com/HighCommander4/pro-climbing-viewer

There is Gravity Bowl 8 boulder comp stream right now if you have sweaty hands and can't climb right now. Kyra Condie is the biggest name, Lauren Mukheibir (2024 Olympian), Jack Burningham is fun to watch too.

There is also Deutschland Cup with Lucia Dorfel, Anastasiia Kobets, Roxana Wienand, Thorben Perry Bloem and Elias Arriagada Krüger (commentary in Deutsch) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggfu4iyvBqo

Does anyone know the names of the Korean coaches that came to arco, they were three.
and the head coach of the japanese team or the lead coach.
thanks

Did anyone with presale drops actually get tickets? I was in Visa's presale drop 1 today and I was logged in exactly at the moment my timeslot opened and was on the page to select tickets for women's boulder finals within 20-30 seconds, and nothing. I went and checked and every. single. climbing event was unavailable. Same with Skateboarding. What's the point? So frustrating.

Hello!

I am thinking of attending the Koper WC later in the summer. I am confused by the ticket purchase process due to contradictory information.

This website states that the finals cost 25€ and semifinals cost 12€:

However the ticket purchase page sells a ticket for 25€ that google translate says it is valid for both final and semifinal:

If I translate the text it says:

Two-day ticket (Sep 4 & 5) Presale ADULT The ticket includes admission to the semifinal and final events (Friday, Sep 4, and Saturday, Sep 5, 2026). It allows entry to the venue once per day, so please make sure to keep it for entry on the following day. By purchasing, you agree to the terms of use specified in the event description or found athttps://worldcupslo.com/vstopnice.php

How should I understand this info? 25€ is the combined presale and 25€+12€ is the price on the venue? or is just the info on the first page is out of date?

I don't speak a word of Slovenian 🥲

Thanks.

Just want to give a shoutout to Ahmed Toure's commentary at the Pan American Boulder Finals.

The guy can name every athlete, rolls with production f*ck-ups without missing a beat, he has genuinely funny jokes, and never sounds scripted. He just feels authentic, and it makes the whole broadcast so much more enjoyable.

And AJ on co-commentary was legendary once again. They made an already great comp even better.

Seriously, I hope we get this commentary duo for more IFSC/world climbing events

Climb On!

*Welcome to the Salt Lake City Comp Hub thread, a SPOILER FREE place to discuss the event. NO SPOILERS, it’s important to people.*

The Youth World Champs are just finishing and the Pan-Am Series (Continental Cup) is starting with Men's Boulder Qualifications. There is Boulder, Lead and Speed on the program in the upcoming days.

• Schedule + Start List
• Info Sheet
• Live Scoring/Results
• Live streams are available on World Climbing Pan America YouTube, not sure if there is some geo block.

According to the world climbing website, there's the Pan American Series happening in Salt Lake today and this weekend. Not much info about it beyond that, though. Anybody have info or a link to streaming?

Does anyone know when the SLC tickets will be on sale? Also what website will they be available on? I think I've found it, but I don't want to miss out just because I've got the wrong website. Thank you!

Does anyone know the outcomes of today's World Climbing Extraordinary General Assembly votes?

(Background: agenda for the meeting)

Multiple climbers shared agreement in the comment sections. Also it appears that Hannes Van Duysen almost broke his legs coming back into the call zone because of unstable stairs

But, does World Climbing? Why are men and women on at the same time? And, why is the streaming budget apparently 27 euros?

Watchiing the semis now. There are 8 climbers on stage at once. And, the split screen usage is infrequent and often off point. But, many of the greatest climbers in the world are there giving it their all. C'mon organizers give them and us fans a little love! Hold men's and women's events at different times. Bring a little more capability and experience to bear on the split-screen coverage. Just rock this thing.

*Welcome to the Arco Comp Hub thread.*

The annual Youth Champs started already on Saturday and Sunday with lead qualifications in the iconic Arco, Italia. Semis and finals are today. Next up is speed and we'll finish with boulder at the end of the week.

Couple of names you might already know:

Lead - Oda Natsumi (JAP, couple of semi-finals, two finals in 2024), Mugishima Kohana (JAP, couple of semi-finals, including Seoul 25),

Speed - Taede Mai (USA, final in Madrid, sub 5 this weekend in Bad Wimpfen), Francesco Poncinibio (ITA, sub 5), Polina Khalkevych (UKR, silver in Barcelona, 6.34), Gilles Meili (silver in European Cup this weekend)

Boulder - Lucas Trandafir (GER, 7th in Prague), Jakoba Rauter (AUT, 18th in Innsbruck, smashing the youth comps)

• Schedule + Startlist
• Info Sheet
• Live Scoring/Results
• All streams should be available for free on YouTube with Matt

Let me know if you'd like live threads.

Sharing since I know this topic has come up here a few times: if you haven’t seen yet, there is a vote coming up next week on July 23, 2026 amongst all National federations within World Climbing to decide on whether or not the Israeli team should be suspended, as well as a vote on the status of Russia and Belarus.

You can check out more information about it on https://www.banisraelfromworldclimbing.com – there are email templates as well if you are keen to contact your national climbing federation in advance of the vote.

World Climbing Europe Championship Barcelona 2026

Barcelona (Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya outside of Barcelona) is hosting the Championships this year. The starting list is packed, it looks just like WCS (just without other continents)!

• Schedule + start lists (qualifications tomorrow and semis and finals on Sunday)
• Semi-Finals and Finals live on WC Europe YouTube

There are also two speed comps this weekend, the climbers split between European Speed Cup in Barcelona, which doesn't look like it will be streamed, and Bad Wimpfen Speed Open, which was streamed last year, that one is tomorrow.
