Louis is one of the most fun climbers to watch. what good vibes

@SpAm-AcCoUnT Год назад

Goddamn is he strong. The technique is impeccable, but it’s backed up by mad fortitude. As always, I learned a lot watching. Nice!

@nyalramzan4879 Год назад

You make me believe i can do some of the climbs you can. Your technique is phenomenal

@kavali6320 Год назад

Always enjoying Louis' vocabulary for the holds, boulders and route setters ;) This time's favourite: the 'garbage' boulder crowned with a bow 🤣. Some Danish, lights in the cave... each trick counts -> Time to be sendy✌️.

Danish? Where? I can't believe I missed that

Louis you are so funny and nice guy and of course also a very good climber...it would be so good to see you in Sweden and do some climbing with our super route setter and climber Nikken plus his friends....pretty please :)

Hiya, glad this video came out today My gym is in the city where I stay during school time, so I have had no climbing for like a week and its another 10 days until I can D: Thanks for letting me live vicariously

Louis, could you make a video or short about the Mantras? I’ve been looking into a pair and I am curious about the lack of edges. Thanks!

@steveshi6576 Год назад

How do we feel about gyms that only use one color of holds for a grade/set? Doesn't it limit the diversity of problems that are possible unless the gym is omega-rich and buys every permutation of holds for every color. I feel like most of the boulders in this video used a similar variety of jugs/crimps rather than more interesting compy-style volumes/slopers/etc.

@hetistijmen Год назад

I agree gyms limit themselves a little when linking colour to grades, but if the holds are purchased with that in mind it shouldn't be an issue. A well stocked gym should have enough holds that they don't run out of possible boulders for the grade before the holds are worn out. Depends on the sets they have, the setters and the design of the wall though.

@fbimagesphoto Год назад

They sometimes mix things up and set individually graded problems using hold sets from other colours. ie if the red holds are usually used for the v4 circuit, they sometimes set a V6 comp problem with them

@zacharylaschober Год назад

Always feel this about monochromatic hold circuits. A string of gyms do this nearby, and I get tired of the same hard circuit being mostly small dual text screw ons and irregular volumes, and the circuit below often features several tweaky feeling crimps and pockets. Bigger limitation is I know the time tables for set crews, and if you are supposed to have red holds v3-5 but this one feels closer to v2 and that one is more v6 you aren’t stripping this and you may not have enough time to tweak for an enjoyable climb experience. Makes for some huge gaps. Colored tags is great.

@Guerilla_G Год назад

I much prefer a single colour to a grade, makes it really easy to walk around and see what I can do and might like, and to track my progress

@pandaplays971 Год назад

Don’t really care much. As long as the routes are fun and interesting.

@Getatron Год назад

I feel validated by knowing even seasoned veterans sometimes do the *Omnigrip* method when raw finger strength just doesn't do. Which is always the case with me.

@liamwilson7403 Год назад

whats the omnigrip method?

@Getatron Год назад

@@liamwilson7403 around the second or third boulder, Louis finds a grip he mistook as something he could use in a more traditional way, and after falling off he made the call to just use his entire hand for the grip, which he called the Omnigrip. :P

@SirPieRoyal Год назад

@@liamwilson7403 7:56 I was about to ask too, but just as I was starting to comment he said it, so here‘s the timestamp to the climb for you

@GomerPyle1228 Год назад

louis didn’t fully down climb on the one climb in the big overhang. need our push-ups!

@tommeyer3871 Год назад

16:45 Louis campusing a hard technical move is giving me confidence for me compensating shortcomings in technique with strength :D What I'm still unsure about is why he only tried using a heel hook and never just standing against the foothold. Is the left hand hold so far into the cave, that it wouldn't be possible to hold that swing from the pushing foot without a right hook? Anyways great video, vibes, outro and some cool blocks :)

@dominiclee1643 Год назад

If he to jump from the low foothold in the cave, it would be jumping into a human flag move since both handholds are vertically in line with each other (he will not be able to stay on the low foothold as there is too much momentum). This is significantly harder than the campus move he opted for

@tommeyer3871 Год назад

@@dominiclee1643 I mean the same foothold he was trying to hook, but by standing on it instead of hooking it

@dominiclee1643 Год назад

@@tommeyer3871Hooking allows him to use his feet to pull himself up, standing on it will push him away from the wall. Generally speaking, when the foothold is higher than your hips, or if you are trying to pull yourself into the wall, you want to hook it rather than stand on it. His body needs to be much higher up before standing on it becomes useful

@tommeyer3871 Год назад

@@dominiclee1643 hmm interesting, I figured since he wants to go left (from camera perspective) and the foothold is pointed left and up he might be able to push it to go towards the direction he needs to go. I see what you mean, his center of mass is well below the foodhold and standing on/against it would put him in a scrunched position where it would be hard to make use of it

How do you like the mantras compte to some other soft shoes for modern bouldering?

@CatalystClimbing Год назад

they just fit personally better and are comfy for me! We would always say try a range to see whats best for you

Is this inspired by Stefano Ghisolfis "100 boulders in 1 hour" video? I love this stuff!

@slapthesloper Год назад

My gym just set a super hard boulder that uses a pocket like that where you want to pull in the same bad direction. One idea I had that actually makes it less horrible is to use it as a mono which is actually very comfortable but of course a lot harder haha

@wodinvalfor8607 Год назад

Was thinking could he mono it so thanks for validating me haha

@berthben Год назад

nice to see you fail a bit on hard moves since everytime you look like a mutant but you are human after all :D :D

@InomonuxD Год назад

Watching this, I found the climbs all looked a bit samey? General theme was pull hard on crap holds. Don't mean to be too down, but I did find it bit dull just in terms of entertainment value. Look forward to your other videos!
