It has been announced that climbing has been proposed for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris and that the sport will have additional medals. Pending IOC approval the sport will be split into two disciplines. Speed independently and then Lead and Boulder combined.
I think it’s great that our sport will remain in the games and that the IFSC are working so hard to promote our sport and make this possible. However, I also think that the proposed format of still a compromise. Maybe we’ll get all 3 disciplines independently in 2028 in LA?
I’d love to know your thoughts!

angelaeckhardt I thinks it’s cool that they’ve made the move to split the disciplines as it’s a step closer to having them each as independent medal events. However I am sad that they’ve done away with the combined format completely- I was just starting to enjoy it! I think it would be amazing if one day we could have a combined event as well as three separate medal events for Lead, Speed and Boulder😊 My only concern with the current change in format would be how the selection events would take place? As previously (for the continental cups at least) the male and female winner of the combined format at this event would be given a place at the Olympics. Would that mean they would have to give more continent allocations or places and potentially include more than 20 men & women? Just my current thought on the situation. At least you won’t have to be spending so much time on the speed wall now!😋

wordsmightfail I think they should all be combined or all be separate. All combined gives you a “best all rounder” vibe, all separate gives you what most climbers give a shit about (but which regular viewers might not, I have no idea). I’d personally prefer all separate, definitely think the one-two split is bonkers! Still, further inclusion is probably better overall.

_floral I wonder if speed will continue to rise in popularity with the general public and lead/Bouldering will be phased out. The scoring and points system doesn’t have the instant watch ability that speed does. But we can live in hope!

josephrutherford12 I’d love to see them all independent. And a mixed together feature. Like decathlon... And of course to make sure they add in off width crack like everyone has been begging for!

toooldforpe Not surprised as speed result is obvious with no argument. Lead and boulder results depend on less obvious criteria if there are two who complete the hardest route.

yo_flora Why won’t they just make lead and boulder 2 separate disciplines and nix speed - seems like this would reflect the actual sport much better
