I think it's a more sensible arrangement for the next Olympics
They said they did it this way because they just wanted to get it in the Olympics for now and then split the lead/bouldering from speed climbing at a later time. Which worked as planned, apparently.

That’s what I thought too but seems a male speed specialist nailed it and qualified top.
Ondra looked to be struggling hard with the heat.

I'm still laughing over all climbers having to compete in 3 wildly different disciplines. The best speed climbers are usually pants at bouldering and lead, and I think we're going to see the overall winner decided by who doesn't fuck up in the speed climbing.
I think it's a more sensible arrangement for the next Olympics, but I'm looking forward to watching this one for the laughs.
