First, you can skip pushing down the block at the start of the chapter by Broken Destiny jumping upwards. This jump is a bit iffy to do, and without good upwards momentum Kratos won't make it. A normal Shield Jump also doesn't seem to be enough to make it up there. But doing this saves over 30 seconds since you skip both a cutscene and a filler climbing section, so it's worth to consider.

Second, you can skip the cutscene where the Delos Warrior makes noise in the upcoming fight arena. This cutscene would activate as Kratos climbs up from the ledge, but you can skip the ledge entirely by making your jump from the climbing wall longer with Fire Rage (the most combo-able of the Rage-moves) followed by Shield air attack or Blades air square attack. Yes, it's the same new technique that helped skip the last Delos Landing fight in the previous video... this should be tried out more around the game. It saves maybe 15-20 secs but is NG+ only.

Best of all, previously these two skips were only possible to do with an Upgrade Jump. It's always good to have Upgrade Jump-less alternatives...

FInally, you can skip the vertical sliding wall by Raging as you jump from the grapple point. I don't know if it saves time since you get an extra slowdown by doing the Rage move. If it does save time, it's probably only a second or so. As a bonus clip, there's a blooper where Kratos misses the rope below as the epic cutscene starts.
