With the recent success on his previous goal, Alphane (V17/9A), Aidan Roberts has not wasted any time in getting to work on the next. Now his sights are firmly set on what is considered by many the hardest boulder problem in the world - Burden of Dreams (V17/9A). In order to prepare Aidan has been training on a replica of the boulder and shows us the process he has gone through to make the holds and train on them. At this level of climbing we are witnessing what it takes to push the limits of human performance!

Imagine going to your local bouldering gym and seeing a problem graded V17 on the wall.

@CJski Год назад

Pssh maybe in your gym

@samulikilpinen1233 Год назад

This could very well be a thing though. Think about it, some gyms would have the "dream crusher" wall, a small 45-ish degree wall at some corner with just one problem on it. I'd be stoked if I could just hang on it for a second. Then again I can just go see the real thing, it's like 2 hours car drive away.

@hervouinmatthieu4304 Год назад

I really love aidan's approach to hard climbs, I feel his level of committement to a project and specialisation really is unmatched in any sport.

@FtwXXgigady Год назад

That first move is so delicate and unstable. It would be really cool to do some kind of slow-motion physics analysis of why some attempts stick while others don't. I feel like it has something to do with the angle at which you approach the hold, like there is a way to move your body such that your right foot has a higher chance of staying on.

@aspuzling Год назад

How does the friction on the plastic holds compare to the rock? I think most of the time, rock has better friction than plastic but the holds on Burden are notoriously glassy.

@SillyMooseMedia Год назад

He said they were molded and then poured. So I figured that meant they were some kind of aggregate material.

@LatticeTraining Год назад

Yeah these holds are quite glassy too. Maybe even more so than the real thing. That's they the last hold (not incut) is a but outrageous to jump to at the moment.

@Matthew_McRae Год назад

I wish more gyms 3D printed holds from boulders around the world. Whether it be V1 to V17. Sometimes it's nice to pull on realistic holds! Awesome video Lattice. Really cool to see how minor adjustments on holds as small as those benefit climbers in different ways.

@M0dElite Год назад

Definitely! If there are some 3D pinting experts here, I wonder what's the limiting factor? Is it the build quality (rigidity of the holds etc.)? Even if there was no standard that climbing holds need to be able to widstand some particular amount of force, they might not be strong enough to last very long in a gym use. Or is it more of a cost or impracticality issue? (expensive materials, and the investment for the 3D printer) and the weight of the 3D printed holds.

@mark.mazzarella Год назад

@@M0dElite My understanding is that the holds themselves aren’t 3D printed - the molds are printed, and then the holds themselves are poured

@M0dElite Год назад

@@mark.mazzarella Oh, of course. 🤦‍♂ that was silly of me. Well, it probably comes to the cost of making the holds then.

@mitchellz8 Год назад

This one works well for the application because the rock is basically a flat slab, where many other outdoor climbs are on a wavey and curved boulder so its harder to replicate the distance and angles between holds.

@A_Tempest Год назад

I've 3d printed and moulded a few holds for my home board, and an absolutely vital step was spraying them down with adhesive/clear coat and adding texture, in my case very fine sand blasting media. Was anything like this one for these or is it just mega slick 3d printed texture?

@heikkiriikonen9274 Год назад

I wonder if it would be a good idea to set this replica on a kilter board or similar? Then the progress could also be measured by adjusting the steepness.

@adrienescaravage509 Год назад

How precise were the scans? Did you get the micro textures of the rock as well? Because I guess it makes quite a big difference for the friction.

@piotrosc Год назад

It is probably not 1:1 but anyway it is great tool for the training I guess

@hematula1 Год назад

prolly not, iPhone Lidar is not that precise. But then again Burden is the classic Finnish red granite. So the reasonably crystalline... meaning not a lot of micro texture to speak off (unlike gneiss or sandstone).

@TheXeeman Год назад

i reckon you could have taken a photograph of the boulder irl and then projected it onto the climbing wall for better accuracy

@AMM1998 Год назад

You'd still have to faff around and set the height of the projector to the exact height, distance and angle of the camera. I guarantee you've never actually tried that yourself because it sounds like it would be a nightmare

@peterboneg Год назад

How does the 3d print replicate the micro texture of the holds? I assume that the scan doesn't have that much resolution. Do you just have to guess a roughness parameter?

@technodromen Год назад

I kinda feel like Burden of Dreams might actually be harder then 9a. Or at least harder then the other 9a's. Or its just because of its position in Finland... but the fact that alot of really strong climbers have tried it and not really anyone made good progress and wanted to come back to it might say something... or its just not very fun to climb. lol.

@beastofackworth Год назад

The other 9a's are all pretty long move wise whereas burden is just a few moves. Big island assis already gets 8c+ from most repeaters, I would think Alphane will settle at 8c+ eventually. Not sure about sleepwalker or the other one but I think Buden will stay 9a

@aidanjohnson7571 Год назад

Next time you should take the whole Burden of Dreams boulder with a bulldozer then a helicopter to your local gym or home (even more convenient) and control every atmospheric condition as well. Send it and claim the second accent. The same as Nalle. What's the point of going climbing outdoors if you can imitate nature with plastic in you local gym? Just build your own 9A/V17, mold it and sell the holds.
