Adam Ondra's 25 Quickfire Questions with Magnus Midtbø 

Sounds like perfect extra motivation

Did anyone else just heard about that Croatian O1 (6c+/7a)?

Crack is back!

@@fredpilk7759 That is the lowest O1 you gonna get :D

Totally imagined you guys cheering at 12:25

@@fredpilk7759 if you're wondering....the route should be "Trüffelschwein" 7a in Kompanj near Buzet ;)

We all need to go to Croatia to become O1 climbers

Noticed the same thing What’s your favourite movie… What’s your favourite song… What’s another hobby you have… Not being able to answer these is why he’s the best climber

one in a 9 billion lol

😂😂😂 #metoo

It was 7a ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Oq2Z4w1UsNg.html

Lmao

tbh when you think about it most climbers say that 6a is already hard and thats why even ondra wouldnt risk free soloing anything over 6a. It means he isnt 100% sure he can climb any 6a+ without falling basically

@@telkmx I honestly dont think that has anything to do with it. Also what do you mean hard? I dont think most climbers think 6a is hard. But it can defenitely be hard in certain context.

@@janmarecek8473 6a is already hard. It just a saying to say that climbing start to be difficult and technical at early levels and need commitment. Tons of high level climbers says it look it up

Indeed!

Adam hasn't retired

And Magnus is coming out of retirement lol

He seems so genuinely excited for what he does. Something we should maybe all focus a little more on, instead of thinking about grades, gear, etc.

Magnus:

If you were married with a baby and are worried about what your girlfriend thinks, you'd have bigger problems than not answering that question.

@@PeterTeal77 hahahhahahaha, dude just disclosed his plans. Frame it and send it to his wedding.

i think he doesn't see "having a kid" as an achievement

It was 7a unfortunately.

Probably just a 6C+ that got upgraded because somebody was upset @@procerator

TAAAAAAA is my music

Tbf I'm not sure that ondra is sure that it sounds weird because English is his 2nd language.

@@lemonmallon2531 ondra speaks many languages... i wouldn't be surprised if it's his 3rd or 4th

we dont have articles in czech so if we don't drill it it's quite difficult to know which one to use or if to use one at all. In this case he wasn't calling music "the music" XD I am almost 100% sure.

@@lemonmallon2531 exactly, iam czech and learning when to use the or a/an was the hardest for me, i dont think he said it "on purpose"

And the intro to xx which I also love

Does that mean I climbed O1?

But do tell me if you do visit and when ! 😅

Marie Rose is a boulder, not a route.

They don't seem to realize that 99% of climbers won't ever touch these grades 😅

I think he was thinking of like academic, athletic or business type achievements, which considering Adam has been obsessed with climbing from such a young age, it didn't surprise me he was a bit stumped.

Also not sure why we should call having a kid " an achievement" you literally just had sex .....

👀

he uses transparent ropes wake up

Stefano has a long way to go before sending, he hasn't even done all of the moves...

For me it was just when I was more confident on the climbs, I was scared of falling until I was climbing around 7a so it might come overtime if you don’t try to overcome the fear

fall more, bigger falls

Fall more and climb with a belay person you trust with close ayes.

Consistency seems to be what you need to really progress. And if you really get anxious on the wall, you cannot push it too far too quickly or you'll just set yourself back. You need to take your time and really learn to trust the equipment and your belayer. If you aim to be climbing for many years to come, 3 months is basically no time at all, you have barely started! So try to look at the big picture and not get demoralized if things don't work out immediately. Climbing is so good because it really challenges you to grow in multiple ways, and if you put in the work, you will see the rewards. Good luck!

Gently overhung climbs that are well bolted, ie - safe falls and lots of them. Start with small falls and gentle progression. Nothing like a big scary whipper to set you back. Ideally, unintentional falls - intentional falls feel way scarier to me than unintentional falls. Analyze the fall potential, make sure it's safe (rational vs irrational fear), then just focus on the movement and try hard. Belayer you trust that isn't going to give you unnecessarily hard catches is key. Been climbing ~4 years but fear of falling is still a struggle, particularly early in the season. It's there for the pros too, just to varying degrees.

Sorato Anraku

@@mysteriousdovesen thank you!

I am sure is this 19 years old french guy on the World Cup

they are talking sports climbing.

I mean it's not that hard if you don't get to 6c

Jakob Schubert

Sorato Anraku. That guy is currently ranked #1 in both lead and bouldering, at age 17. Jakob Schubert was the rival from his own generation.

So he has one.

and he just became the best ever 🥱🥱🥱🥱

He doesn’t seem to have any other interests than climbing. That’s how you become the best, I guess. I’m not the best at anything and I love so many things. I guess this is why.

It is not a green screen

Greenscreen don’t ever look this good
