Being Spiderwoman finals.
Both Polish girls win their heats
The Indonesian girl got close to the World Record but still got beat by a Chinese girl who flew the last metre
I believe later GB have medal hopes in listening to ex Mrs P-F
ie being driven up the wall
The commentator is crying.
Polish #2 was beaten by their #1 Alex Miroslaw in the Semi final and just beat the Indonesian who missed a handhold
Final next 6.10s beats 6.18
Gold for Poland.
Medic for Commentator
4th in the medals - decent performance so far
The national lottery is a proper game changer for our athletes
5th, but yes I agree.
Frogs don’t count😉
Fair point. I’ll get my coat….

I take it the lead is tied to the ankles before they start?
Yes and the other end secure to a bolt in the floor so they don’t climb too high. Last Olympic medalists are taking part in this year’s Para Olympics.
This whole climbing sport is about to become a Thing.
As probablyvwill Breaking later today
I have just seen Epileptic fits are a new Olympic sport.
