Escalada Olímpica

By Phil Bainbridge

July 26, 2024 - August 11, 2024 - Los Juegos Olímpicos de verano 2024, los Juegos de la XXXIII Olimpiada, se realizan en París, Francia y los eventos de escalada se realizarán en la Sede de Escalada Le Bourget, una de solo dos sedes construidas espefícamente para una disciplina.

Using a combination of problem solving, strength and dexterity, athletes will compete in two medal events each for men and women. Speed climbing is a head-to-head elimination race on a 15-metre climbing wall, where every race has identical hand-holds in the same positions, meaning muscle memory is essential.

Meanwhile the Combined event sees athletes score points in the Bouldering - climbing without ropes - and Lead climbing disciplines, where problem solving and endurance are key attributes, with the highest combined total winning.
