Kyra Condie (born June 5, 1996) is a rock climber who specializes in competition climbing and was one of four American rock climbers selected to represent Team USA at the 2020 Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan.[2] She placed 11th in the Women's Combined event in the sport of Sport Climbing.[2] In December 2019, she qualified for the 2020 Summer Olympics following her finish at the IFSC Combined Qualifier Toulouse 2019, becoming the second female American climber to do so.[3]

Climbing style
Condie has attributed her climbing style, which relies more on muscles than technique, to training mostly at a small Minneapolis gym with only a 45-degree spray wall, and the difficulty she has twisting her body because of her fused spine.[1] During the pandemic, Condie found creative ways to continue her training at home, creating "off-the-wall" workouts with limited equipment and hanging from door frames.[7]
