If anyone happens to see a replay for the men's boulder final at the European climbing championships, it'd be great if you can post it :p 

 

It was live on a dailymotion stream, but apparently those aren't available on-demand, so.....tough luck.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

I'll be damned, there are full livestreams available in the US? :yikes: 

 

It works like a charm with my VPN, so thank you :d I'll check out for more tomorrow!

What's with this weird scoring system in the bouldering in Munich? :question:

they're trying a new system...it should be more "user friendly", but I don't think they're getting their target...

 

by the way, it's 3 points for a zone and 25 minus 0.1 for each attempt after the first for the Top...

I honestly don't get how it's more user friendly. I mean, imagine you're a random person who - like most people who watch the Olympics or something - has never seen sports climbing in your life.

 

How is a thing with a seemingly random and relative number of points more friendly than simply the absolute number of tops and zones? :d 

 

Edit: just asked my dad, who has never in his life seen competitive climbing. The tops + zones system seemed easy to understand for him, the points system confused him already :d

Watching yesterday's combined (at least I assume the rather cumbersome name 'Boulder & Lead' will be changed to combined :d), and the lead graphics confused me a bit at first. I thought getting anywhere between holds A and B would give 1 point, between C and D 2 points, between E and F 5 points and then 10 points for the top, which would have been a laughably awful scoring system considering one can get 100 points in bouldering. But of course every hold between A and B is worth 1 point, every hold between C and D is worth 2 points and every hold between E and F is worth 5 points, which makes a lot more sense :d 

 

This combined scoring system this way is at least a billion times better than the terrible thing of multiplying positions, which actually is very hard to follow without constantly calculating all the changing possibilities. With this scoring system, once an athlete did boulder + lead, that's their score and that'll remain their score.

    • Dove into my results archive again...   I thought it might be fun to look at a single event from the same multi-sports games over time, so here's some comparative rankings from the Pan American Games (2007-2023).   Men's Shot Put (Winners) - Athletics 2019 Pan American Games: Darlan Romani  - 22.07m 2015 Pan American Games: O'Dayne Richards  - 21.69m 2023 Pan American Games: Darlan Romani  - 21.36m 2011 Pan American Games: Dylan Armstrong  - 21.30m 2007 Pan American Games: Dylan Armstrong  - 20.10m   Women's K1 500m (Winners) - Canoe Sprint 2023 Pan American Games: Michelle Russell  - 1:51.25 2019 Pan American Games: Beatriz Briones  - 1:52.552 2011 Pan American Games: Carrie Ann Johnson  - 1:54.243 2015 Pan American Games: Yusmari Mengana  - 2:00.656 2007 Pan American Games: Jill D'Alessio  - 2:01.977   Men's Sprint Qualification (1st Ranked Riders) - Track Cycling 2023 Pan American Games: Nicolas Paul  - 9.574 (75.203 km/h) 2019 Pan American Games: Nicolas Paul  - 9.808 (73.409 km/h) 2011 Pan American Games: Njisane Phillip  - 9.977 (72.165 km/h) 2015 Pan American Games: Hugo Barrette  - 9.978 (72.158 km/h) 2007 Pan American Games: Julio Cesar Herrera  - 10.772 (66.839 km/h)   Women's Jump (Winners) - Water Ski 2023 Pan American Games: Regina Jaquess  - 52.2 2011 Pan American Games: Regina Jaquess  - 50.60 2015 Pan American Games: Regina Jaquess  - 49.1 2007 Pan American Games: Regina Jaquess  - 43.70 Note: The 2019 Pan American Games were scored differently, thus not included on the ranking. Regina Jaquess  was the winner.     I didn't chose the above events for any particular reason, just thought I'd be interesting to look at the results. If there are any other events users would like to me to do this with, just tag me below. 
    • Canoe Polo World Championships are coming to the end. If i'm not mistaken this countries should get quotas:   Men   Women ()  Last spot should be decided between  and  in match for 7th place.   https://www.kayak-polo.info/app/#/chart Qualification system: https://www.canoeicf.com/sites/default/files/2025_cap_worldsgames-qs_061123.pdf
    • This 400IM field is a joke  (besides MSH…)  
    • Marc Marquez with a horror start (saved it nicely though)....turns out it was because right before the start, he took off a tear-off from his visor, threw it away and it ended up under his own bike  
    • That was Friday though, yesterday was better (although a seagull was destroyed by Miller) and today so far has not had any problem at all luckily  
    • And a Dutch record for Nyls Korstanje behind him     
    • WR for  Noe Ponti in the 50m butterfly! 21.67! 
    • Well, Honda and Yamaha are getting pantsed this season even more but at least we have more geese in Phillip Island    
    • Sven Goran Eriksson probably had 1 year to live after the diagnosis but it was a good life or so it looked like - he traveled, for example, he was in Rome at the Lazio stadium in the spring. If he felt really bad, he probably wouldn't have traveled. I hope it's similar for Hoy, although unfortunately cancer with metastases to the guests can cause severe pain
