No streaming issues, the event flowed really smoothly - top job all round.

I found the 4-way split screen on the semi's to be a bit pants... but apart from that, yes.

Congrats and wow etc. to Shauna. Impressive.  :strongbench:

Men's qualifiers at moment, Ondra looks like he might not make it - 18th with lots more folk to climb. The circuit doesn't seem too impressed with the setting either (comment on fb that app won't let me paste here)

It's an interesting men's qualification round here in Innsbruck. After the near perfect setting of last week we are faced with two distinctly different groups.
 In mens A the routes are VERY hard with all the climbers struggling.
 In mens B, 4 of the problems are quite soft meaning it comes down to attempts...

 On top of that lots of climbers are struggling with the holds taken from the local Tevoli gym. You would expect a competition the caliber of Innsbruck would use new holds.

 Still most of the usual suspects are through and tomorrow is another day.

usual suspects all through for girls. looks like Mina LW has good chance of going through too. The mid week redpointing in the frankenjura doesn't seem to have done Melissa Le Neve any harm - through in joint second.

So, I assume you're all out enjoying the weather, and so was I till now, so haven't seen video, but some interesting results from the semis:
No Alex or Jule in the girls, and no Jan or Jernej in the boys.

Shauna only one to top problem one! No one else even got the bonus, could be handy depending on other probs

The stream doesn't work for me, might just be because I'm on my phone though?

Why was I not watching this earlier? Looks great, massive crowd and production values. Melissa pulling some serious shapes, quite a show-woman too. Ondrawad just got told off for not having both feet on the starting hold, pouted, then pissed the problem like it was a casual warm-up. Knife-edge for Shauna  :devangel:

Would be nice to see Akiyo top F4 now that she's no threat to Shauna.

Also, Ondra must be seething! That cost him gold didn't it?

No, killian still would have won on count back.

Great comp. awesome stuff from shauna. Impressive hip flexibility from ondra. Epic perserverance from rustam.

How so? Kilian 4t7 4b6, Ondra 4t8 4b6. So if he'd flashed M4, they'd have tied tops, but Adam would have had less tries for his bonus' surely.

Sorry, you're right, wasn't paying attention to bonuses.
