Alex Megos
Alex Megos became one of the most significant lead and sport climbers of his generation, becoming the first person to onsight a route graded 9a — climbing it cleanly on the very first attempt with no prior knowledge of its moves — a benchmark achievement that reshaped expectations for what onsight climbing at the highest grades could look like. His combination of competition success and significant outdoor rock climbing achievements distinguished him from climbers who specialized purely in one format or the other, giving him credibility across both the indoor competition circuit and the broader outdoor sport climbing community. Megos's technical precision and his willingness to attempt historically difficult outdoor routes previously climbed only by a small handful of specialists established him as one of the sport's most versatile and technically accomplished all-around climbers. His combination of his historic onsight breakthrough and his sustained excellence across both competition and outdoor sport climbing has made Megos one of the most respected and technically significant climbers in the sport's modern history.
VS
Miho Nonaka
Miho Nonaka won the silver medal in the inaugural Olympic combined climbing event at the Tokyo 2020 Games, held in 2021, becoming one of the defining figures of competition climbing's historic Olympic debut and one of Japan's most significant climbing competitors of her generation. Her technical strength specifically in lead climbing, the discipline within the sport's combined Olympic format that rewards sustained endurance and route-reading over the shorter, more explosive demands of bouldering, gave her a distinct competitive profile within Japan's deep roster of elite climbers. Nonaka's Olympic silver medal performance, achieved on the biggest possible stage during the sport's first-ever Olympic appearance, gave her a specific historic significance tied directly to climbing's broader institutional legitimization as an Olympic sport. Her combination of her historic Olympic silver medal and her specific lead-climbing technical strength has made Nonaka one of the most significant figures in competition climbing's landmark Olympic debut.
