Some of the strongest climbers in the world, including Chris Sharma and Adam Ondra, competed on eight difficult problems each set for the men and women. Austria's Barbera Zangerl flashed three of the problems, completing six overall. Adam Ondra of the Czech Republic and Gabriele Moroni of Italy flashed five men's problems, with Anthony Gullsten (Finland), Mauro Calibani (Italy), and Michele Caminati (Italy), each completed five.
