Speed Climbing in the Tokyo Olympics
Sport climbing will be included in the 2020 Summer OlympicsĀ for the first time.
The proposed format will consist of three disciplines:Ā lead climbing,Ā speed climbingĀ andĀ bouldering. The winner will be determined based on who performs best in all three disciplines. It was previously tested at theĀ 2018 Summer Youth Olympics. …
The decision to combine three disciplinesāLead climbing,Ā BoulderingĀ andĀ Speed climbingāwith one set of medals per genderācaused widespread criticism in the climbing world.
ClimberĀ Lynn HillĀ said the decision to include speed climbing was like “asking a middle distance runner to compete in the sprint.” …
Personally I think Speed Climbing will be the most popular of the three with a worldwide audience.
The Usain Bolt of Men’s Speed Climbing (so far) has been Reza Alipour from Iran.

Hailey Klein – Free Hip to Nabieva
For me this is even more impressive than Sunisa’sĀ Nabieva to mixed grip.
It’s MUCH harder to generate the counter rotation from Free Hip.
