How can you claim to watch competition climbing without including Ai Mori AND ranking Soratu so low? You've clearly not even watched the 2023 or 2024 IFSC season. AI Mori, who is the only person to have beaten Janja in lead THREE TIMES in recent memory (Bern 2023, Edinburgh 2022, and Koper 2022) and will wipe the floor with anyone else if Janja isn't there. She has at least an excellent chance of a podium. And Soratu might be a little inconsistent but he's better than Tomoa in bouldering and Jakob in lead on his best days. He's definitely a podium contender if not favorite to win.

I think you placed Toby and Sorato way too low (But I am biased towards Toby), I think Colin might be a bit too high, Tomoa lead is just a bit too weak to get on the podium imo, hard to tell where Adam will place and Jakob has a very strong chance of winning and so does Alberto. It would be cool to see Alex Megos up there but realistically I think comp climbing (Especially bouldering) doesn't suit his style. For the women I think Ai could have a chance depending on the bouldering (Her size really just plays against her) as her lead is just so dominant
@androgynousmaggot9389

Agree on everything you said! Mori just has to hope for less flashy setting (small chance since they will go all out to showcase Janjas dynamic style) Sorato has better chances than Tomoa imo!

The reality is competition is so packed and climbing comp are so unpredictable (Tomoa slip), that except for Janja, everything can happen. Adam Ondra can win, but he might not qualify for finals as well. Janja will be on a podium for sure, but she might not win. I my opinion 10 men and 12 women are capable of winning medals, and most of them can win gold. It's not like the other sports, where you can easily predict who will be where on a list, based on their previous results and except for the Janja, top 10 men and women are very close.

I think your predictions show a bias towards competitors who peaked before Tokyo - with the men Toby Roberts and Sorato Anraku are both way more consistent and have far better results from recent comps than anyone else except Jakob Schubert. There are great competitors in the whole field, but those three have to be the favourites for the podium by a looong way. Ondra is the greatest rock climber of all time, but Schubert had the edge on plastic for a long time and especially now Ondra just isn't up there on plastic anymore - I can't see him in the top five unless Sorato or Roberts both completely screw up. Narasaki too is too weak on lead and has a strong match in boulder in Anraku and Schubert so that 3rd place seems very unlikely. I'd guess Roberts 3rd, Schubert 2nd and Anraku 1st as the podium. Then for the Women your calls are good over all, but again skew towards older competitors - climbers like Nonaka are legends, and have a shot at the podium, but compared to Ai Mori who is the only competitor to have the lead chops to beat Janja multiple times in world cups, one time while climbing with a bad stomach ache her inconsistency in boulder is completely outweighed by *almost* always being first or second on the lead wall. She's an absolute monster, and given a set of boulders where she can stay in touch with the competition she's got a really good chance. Grossman is a good pick for second / third, but again she was really good before Tokyo, and it feels like you haven't actually watched any of Ai Mori's comp climbing, half of your comments are so surprised to not see her mentioned because she's no random wildcard who got lucky to qualify, she's a top 5 competitor at least. Janja is obviously the one to beat, but my podium pick would be Grossman 3rd, Mori 2nd and Garnbret 1st.

Ai Mori will be on the podium, Sorato will be higher. In the men's top 8, Alberto Lopez will also be there (he has had quite a good season). Adam will probably be out of podium again (his shoulder is screwed, but who knows, he is a well-known lover of pain).

@@procerator yeah, sadly it'll probably be a race for second place, but I really really hope Natalia is able to put some serious pressure on Janja and I'm rooting for Miho to get another podium.

I agree with your gold positions for both men and women, but I disagree with most of the rest of it. xD I think Sorato has a better chance than Ondra of making podium by quite a long margin tbh. I would like Ondra to medal, just cos it's basically the one competition he's never medaled in... but I don't think he will if I'm being honest. His performance the last few seasons has been kind of middle of the pack. I think Jakob Schubert, Sorato Anraku are gonna be on the podium. I think Jakob has a really good chance of winning and Sorato probably won't win, but I can see him in second or third place. Then there's Tomoa, Adam and Alberto and maybe Toby. I think one of them will be the third podium. I would say Alberto has the best chance out of them. He's been crushing in bouldering, and is significantly better than Tomoa in lead. However, he did have a toe injury a few weeks ago so that might be an issue. Adam has been doing meh in bouldering, though he still slays in lead. So I feel like him and Tomoa have roughly the same chance of making podium. Toby... who the fuck knows lol I feel like Toby will either make podium or be like 7th lol The remaining finals spots I'm not super sure on. I think Sam Avezou and Colin Duffy are the likeliest. But Dohyun Lee, Paul Jenft, Hannes van Duysen and Yannick Flohe are also contenders. Dohyun did have a shoulder injury I think at the OQS, so that might come into play though. If I had to pick the top 8 men, I'd probably go with: 1. Jakob Schubert 2. Sorato Anraku 3. Tomoa Narasaki 4. Alberto Ginez-Lopez 5. Adam Ondra 6. Toby Roberts 7. Sam Avezou 8. Colin Duffy For the women, I'm quite confident in Janja. I think there would have to be something really unexpected happening for her not to win. And probably the world would have to be ending for her not to podium at all. Jessie Pilz I think will podium. She could be silver, she could be bronze. the third podium spot... I'll be honest, I'm not sold on Natalia. I haven't seen her that much at world cups the past 2 seasons. I'm not sure if she even competed in lead, but she certainly didn't medal in lead. In bouldering, she is probably second only to Janja (and has an outside chance of beating Janja). But I'm just not sure. She hasn't been competing much, so I don't know what to say. Brooke And Chaeyun Seo have been pretty consistent across the past two seasons and I'd probably pick one of them for the third podium spot. Ai Mori is similar to Natalia but on the lead side of things. She is second to only Janja in lead and has a chance of beating Janja in lead. But her bouldering is a bit lacking, although occasionally, she pulls one out of the bag. So Brooke, Natalia, Cayeun Seo and Ai Mori I think are the main contenders for the third podium spot. Brooke and Chaeyun have been more consistent across both disciplines, but Natalia and Ai are neck in neck with Janja in their preferred discipline. The remaining final spots I'd give to Miho, Erin, though Zelia Avezou and Genia Kazbekova are also contenders. If I had to pick the top 8 women, I'd go with: 1. Janja Garnbret 2. Jessica Pilz 3. Brooke Raboutou 4. Ai Mori 5. Chaeyun Seo 6. Natalia Grossman 7. Erin McNeice 8. Miho Nonaka Thanks for coming to my TED talk

I completely forgot Orianne. I feel like she's quite unpredictable, but has actually beaten Janja in bouldering. Hmm... I'm not sure about her. I think she will be in the finals. I would say she has to replace either Miho or Erin. Hard to say who, but I'd probably give her 7th place.

To respond to OP, Megos at least was one of the physically strongest climbers if you mean raw finger and arm strength, but unless the boulders and lead route are all based around static movements on 2 finger pockets and monos his trouble with modern styles and bouldering in general make him almost a write off. It would be amazing if he could make finals though, I'd be so happy if Megos, Ondra and Schubert could all compete together on that finals stage.

Yeah it’s something they need to evaluate. There’s comes a balance between having diversity - including the different nations in the Olympics - and ensuring that the best athletes are actually competing. Some sports in the games depend on the national teams and winning is more team based but in climbing it’s more like every person is competing for themselves so it feels strange.

Cap. Anraku will most likely podium. He is the top boulderer and top lead climber of 2023/2024. If anyone is a dark horse it’s gines lopez based on his performance in training with other competitors like Toby Roberts and Avezou. I can agree with Jakob Schubert and tomoa narasaki possibly placing podium but you’re crazy if you think Adam Ondra is gonna podium. Also dohyun Lee is way too low on ranking. He’s one of the strongest boulderer alongside Anraku. Lead questionable but bouldering definitely has one up on most of the other climbers. I say all this based on having watched all of men’s ifsc comps

Ai More has beaten Garnbret on more than occasion in lead and whether she stands on the podium may be determined by the setting of the boulder problems, as being the shortest competitor, she has struggled on height dependant problems in world cups but definitely has the gas tank to win Lead. Who knows anything can happen, Also Raboutou was very close to getting a medal in the previous olympics so am interested to see how things play out...

This combined format is extremely hard to predict. Depending on how "hard" or "easy" the boulders and routes will be. If bouders are hard "meaning few tops" and the routes with a very obvious crux that sees most of the climbers falling on the same spot, boulder specialists like Tomoa are in a good place. On the other hand if lead route is super hard it is possible for lead specialist to catch up a lot of points. The only things I feel confident about are Janja gold and Jackob on the podium. My hopes for podiums (not totaly impossible I think) : Sorato, Jackob, Toby or Tomoa Janja, Nathalia, Ai Very excited to watch all of this.
