Alright, we've got people from Bulgaria, the Netherlands, Colombia, France, USA, Serbia and so on here...quite a diverse mix of countries. So, in any of your countries, is there anything resembling a decent fan base for sports climbing?

Check the IFSC's Youtube channel. They have World Cups and World Championships uploaded and live stream most of them. It's very entertaining, tbh. (I'm aware you'll probably need to wait until August 22nd tho lol)

Climbing is a sport?

What, five new sports?!

[Quasit 865]

Yay, I approve.

 

So which nations will benefit most from these additions? Japan and France, probably.
