7:16 AHH. YUH! AHH! ... MHH! AHH! MRAAHH! Music was tense, great editing as always. Your friends in the background nonchalantly talking was also amusing. So happy for you! I heard the knock knock when you were talking about your injury and I thought it was a friend doing "knock on wood" to not jinx you for talking about non-climbing related injuries. 😂 Props to you guys returning the draws in the middle of the dark rain, that just shows you care about nature and your adventure. The risks for doing that is wild. You and your friends are Good People. Speaking of Vegas, have you met Alex Honnold? I want to meet him one day, and I know he lives here. Thanks again for a really fun and compelling video, my only ask would be in the future for you to get someone to do visual zooms and not digital zooms of your climbs. I know you're not there yet but hopefully one day! Be safe and have fun! (And feel better!)
Hahaha, I had to dig REAL deep. Thanks! I'm psyched!! I have met Alex Honnold, yep - just at the crag a few times. If you climb enough in Vegas, you're sure to run into him. Thanks for watching my vids! Glad you like them 😊 And yes, I am with you on that. Hopefully one day 🤞 But in the interim, a better camera would certainly help with the video quality. Working on it!!
@@512andbeyond The Honnold Magnus collab in Red Rock (free climb) got me hooked on these videos. I used to be a huge climber as a kid. I want to get back in to it one day. But for now I can live vicariously through people like you! Keep up the great work! And again your editing is really great, music, voice overs, all that. You're a natural at this. Good luck!
Thanks! I really appreciate that 😊😊😊 And YES that Honnold Magnus collab was sooo good. I'm pretty sure that Magnus is in Vegas right now and climbing with Honnold by the way (my friend saw them at the crag), so maybe there will be a new one coming!
@@512andbeyond OMG! THAT'S HUGE! Can't wait. And we got to get you to go viral because you are a gem! I saw some novice routes I am definitely going to do with my friend soon out in Red Rock. Just have to plan it out. (Nothing like your 5.12 of course!!)
I kinda agree with your homie; your shoes are too tight. People associate tight shoes with performance, which has some merit, but if they're tight to the point that you have pain or numbness during a climb? My philosophy is that sacrificing the quality of the tactile feedback from the toes is not worth the trade off. Normally, fingers don't pop unexpectedly if you're truly solid on your feet.
Yeah, that is a fair point. The issue isn't really numbness or lack of sensitivity, just pain (lol). I have experimented with bigger shoes but I just can't stand on as small footholds in them. And as somebody who loves slab, that's kind of a deal breaker 🤷♀️ Maybe I'll change my mind over time, but for now I kinda dig being able to stand on small nothings (even if it hurts!)
@@512andbeyond I used to wear really tight shoes because I love slab too (me and crimpy slabs🥰🥰). I just feel that, for me, pain competes too strongly for my limited attention. Anyway, congrats on the 5.12 onsight, of course!!🥳
Yasss isn't slab the absolute best! Always cool to talk to people who appreciate slabby goodness. Re tight shoes: I grew up doing ballet reasonably seriously, and I think my foot pain tolerance is higher than average from that 😆 Just got sooo used to it haha. But yeah generally people think I'm nuts for the tightness. And thank you!!! 🙏 I'm psyched!
