-[Geek Climber] Welcome to the first IFYC Bouldering Tournament.
-[rockentry] This is a bouldering competition
between myself and Geek Climber.
-[Geek Climber] And we will be competing under
the IFSC Bouldering World Cup rules.
For the IFSC Bouldering World Cup Competition,
there are four climbs in total
and each of the competitors has four minutes per climb.
There's a start hold, a zone hold,
and a top hold for each climb.
The start hold by definition
is the starting hold of the climb.
And the zone hold is a hold somewhere
in the middle of the climb
set to distinguish different climbers' performance.
And the top hold is the final hold of the climb.
The score for each competitor is ranked
by how many climbs he gets to the top hold.
If there is a tiebreaker,
it's then ranked by how many climbs
he gets to the zone hold.
If there's another tiebreaker,
whoever uses fewer attempts in total
to get to the top hold will rank higher.
If there's still another tiebreaker,
whoever uses fewer attempts in total
to get to the zone hold will rank higher.
As you all know,
rockentry is a lot stronger than I am
so in order to be fair
there has to be a handicap for him.
-[rockentry] This is what we're gonna do,
we won't be climbing the same route or same grade
but I'll be choosing four V4s for Geek Climber.
-[Geek Climber] And I'll be choosing four V6s
for rockentry on the MoodBoard.
-[rockentry]I'm nervous.
-[Geek Climber] Let's do it.
(crowd cheering)
(crowd gasping)
Oh, this is the IFYC Bouldering Tournament,
not the IFSC Bouldering World Cup Competition so
(record scratches)
we can show actual climbing footages on YouTube.
This competition is sponsored by nobody.
If any of you sponsors out there watching
want to sponsor future competitions,
definitely let me know.
So first up, I'll be climbing a V4 called Wuthering Heights
set by the great Ben Moon himself.
(bang)
-[rockentry] Come on.
Nice, dude! -[Geek Climber] Oh!
-[rockentry] Nice, come on!
Nice!
Come on. Come on, dude!
Nice!
Come on!
Yes!
(bell dings)
-[Geek Climber] Yes, yes!
Next up, rockentry will climb a V6
on the MoonBoard called Magnum.
(crowd talking)
Nice!
(crowd talking)
Oh, nice!
Sick!
(bell dings)
Nice job, man!
That's so awesome!
That was an amazing flash by rockentry to capture the lead.
Next up, I'll be climbing a V4
on a MoonBoard called An Easy Problem.
(crowd talking)
-[rockentry] Come on.
Dude!
What?
(bell dings)
Nice!
Oh my god, these are too easy for you, dude.
-[Geek Climber] Probably a bit too easy for me, yeah.
-[rockentry] Yeah.
-[Geek Climber] Next up, rockentry will climb a V6
on the MoonBoard called Hard Times.
Nice!
-[rockentry] I feel so weak.
-[Geek Climber] Nice!
Oh!
Nice!
Beautiful, come on!
Nice!
Under time pressure,
rockentry wasn't able to reach the top
but at least he's able to get to the zone hold.
So he is slightly behind me at the moment.
Next up, I'll be climbing a V4 on a MoonBoard called Bitter.
-[rockentry] Get that third one, man. Try to flash it.
Nice, dude, come on.
Come on!
Yes!
Come on!
Yeah, dude, nice!
You flashed it.
-[Geek Climber] Yes!
Yeah!
-[rockentry] You flashed it!
-[Geek Climber] Yeah!
Next up, it's rockentry's turn to climb a V6
on the MoonBoard called Improvvisazione.
Nice!
Nice, keep the tension.
Whoa!
Come on!
That was so close!
-[rockentry] So close.
(rockentry yells)
-[Geek Climber] Oh my god!
Oh!
-[rockentry] Gotta get it.
-[Geek Climber] You got it, man.
(crowd talking)
Smooth.
Nice!
Perfect!
(rockentry yells)
Come on!
Yup, that should do it!
(mumbles) Go!
Oh, sick!
(bell dings)
Yeah, nice!
-[rockentry] Yes!
-[Geek Climber] Nice!
That was an incredibly clutch performance by rockentry.
The last climb for me is a V4
on the MoonBoard called Far from the Madding Crowd.
-[rockentry] What?
-[Geek Climber] What?
-[rockentry] Come on!
-[Geek Climber] You got to be kidding me.
-[rockentry] Now you know how it feels like.
Come on.
Shift your body that way, yeah.
Come on.
(rockentry laughs)
Three minutes.
-[Geek Climber] Three minutes? Okay.
-[rockentry] I don't know about that.
Or maybe, oh!
-[Geek Climber] No.
-[rockentry] Nice, come on!
Come on!
Try hard. Come on.
(laughs) You're just getting the wall.
-[Geek Climber] My horrible performance on the last route
gives rockentry a chance to win the match.
If he can top the last one, he will win
because even though we have the same amount of tops,
he will end up having more zones than me.
So next up he will climb a V6
on the MoonBoard called Kemal's Var.
(crowd talking)
--[rockentry] Oh my god!
I'm trying!
-[Geek Climber] Nice!
Come on!
(rockentry groans)
Oh!
Yeah, it's the body position, man.
-[rockentry] I have to at least get the zone.
-[Geek Climber] Get to the zone, man.
-[rockentry] Get to the zone.
-[Geek Climber] Come on.
-[rockentry] Get to the zone!
-[Geek Climber] Beautiful!
Beautiful, come on!
(rockentry yells)
Good job, man.
Good job!
(triumphant music)
