Didn't watch men's semi, but it must have been hard. Paul Jenf came up on top with 2 tops and 4 zones, Jongwon Chon second with 2 tops and 2 zones. 1 top and 2 zones were enough to get to the finals. All problems except the first got topped by someone though...

Likewise didn't watch it, but not a single top for anyone outside the top 7....

And only the top 12 managed more than 2 zones!

Mejdi Schalck and the seemingly impossible #4 from the men's final. With the right beta...   :clap2:

Didn't realise that the 3d models of the finals problems are available to browse online https://onlineobservation.com/competitions/WC_Hachioji23 Maybe just my inner geek, but pretty cool being able to 'view' them up close.

Maybe Graeme can correct me on that at some point.

I have quit working for the IFSC so won't be commenting on the comps.

Well it was nice having a man-in-the-know answering questions while it lasted  :icon_beerchug:

I've actually started watching them again (couldn't bear to last year as I was too injured). When I can meet a friend for her disc+ account, of course.

Pretty big news for comps that Veddriq Leonardo has done 4.98 seconds in speed qualification, to become the first person under 5 seconds in official competition. I don't pay much attention to speed normally, but was aware that it was getting extremely close to sub 5, with some Indonesians doing it in practice but no one managing yet at a comp. Also pretty funny that I think he was wearing La Sportiva's speed shoe, fittingly named the 4.99...  ;D  time for a new shoe!

Then in the quarter-finals he did 4.90 seconds.

In the women's comp Aleksandra Miroslaw set a new world record four times taking it to 6.25 seconds.

Anyone understand what’s happening in Seoul? No final for the Women, just a semi that will count as a final?

Erin McNeice appears to have qualified for the semi/final/whatever. First time she’s got this far?

On ig someone mentioned that the qualification was rained off, so I guess they effectively lost a day and shifted everything forward a day, and will work out overall results based on semis.

Max Milne and Toby Roberts through for men and Erin McNiece through for women. Strong showing from british team. Semis start at 950. No final as Remus said

Am I right that this is at least the second time the Korean round has been badly affected by rain? I know it's a spectacular setting but seems odd not to have learned the lesson from last time.

Toby Roberts 3rd in Men's Qualis in SLC
Hamish MacArthur through also but Milne loses out.
Natalia seems to have recovered form.
Janja back for Prague in June, apparently.

Can someone tell the commentator on Youtube that Flavy Cohout's first name is not pronounced "Flabby"

One might imagine that a Brit long term resident in Chamonix might have picked up some clue as to how to pronounce French names correctly. But evidently one would be mistaken.
