The Ultimate 'Olympic' Challenge In Brand New Gym 

I loved this one! You don’t get to see Louis on a rope that often. Not surprised to see him smashing that route though 💪💪💪

I'm really impressed by your speed ability. Relatively clean beta with Tomoa skip and 8 second pace is insane for only a few sessions. I don't know if you noticed but this gym has severely blundered their speed setup. The only up to standard aspect of this wall is the certified holds. Yikes :( - Not full size wall. - Autobelay too close to the wall. - Incorrect Floor height. Based on where Louis head level is relative to the start holds id say its at least 6 inches too high. - Several holds in incorrect orientation including the start holds + start feet are not in the correct position. - Non standard wall panels. There is supposed to be a bigger gap between the edge of the top and bottom of the panels and the first/last row of t-nuts (187.5mm instead of 125mm). From what I can tell they are all in a perfect grid of what I assume is 125mm. This means all of the holds vertical position will be off by a significant amount. - No automated timer. Gyms not putting in the effort to make their speed walls standard is a big part of why speed climbing is not growing as fast as it could be. Its pretty much impossible to effectively train speed on this wall which makes it a waste of wall space.

I'm sure we'd all love to see you outdoors with Aidan! Maybe you could scout out some places outside of London (loved Louis' episode on the Nugget Climbing Podcast)

yaaaaaay another catalyst video i guess i can work later! also it was so much fun seeing louis in the BBC! keeping up with everyone, so strong and we were so excited because we didnt even know they were happening and just got the stream recommended here in austria, and then we saw louis!

Always great to see more sport climbing on RU-vid!

That black boulder on the comp wall was a total sandbag. Makes me feel better to see that even Louis couldn't flash it. I'd also say somewhere around v9-10.

Epic video as always. And thanks to whomever was behind the camera, I'm assuming Sol. Great job!

Hi Louis, I am disturbed from Iran, I love your program

Good insight into headspace

🗽 Louis does speed climbing... 😱😱 It was impressive! Go for it in the worldcup. .

Loving the lead climb content!

More of you doing rope climbs would be 👍

Amazing as per 👌 ! Missing the longer length vids, am I just too Louis greedy?! 😅

hurray for louis!

Watching this while a massive blister on my finger is recovering and I can’t climb :< always motivating though seeing a vid drop

Lets see more lead! Good stuff

Louis for gold! ❤

I feel all the parthian centres I've been to sandbag the boulder grades a teeny bit

0:22 had me seeing doubles.

I really hope 7b isn't the hardest route in the gym, the hardest rope climb my gym usually sets is 8a+/8b

you now it new when it look new

is that the only rope wall they have cuz if so that is not a lot haha

How many routes are there in the rope climbing bit?

was that a finished bowline you were tied off with?

V7??

Hardest route only 7b???

First!

Louis, we have to get you biting the rope. As coordinated and precise as you are, clipping high as you did, tremendous time savings with a quick bite. As well, probably would help if the belayer did not keep you on as tight. He did a fine job being gym safe, but did not help you.

sorry mate, but can you just let us in into the finances of this channel? At 50k subscribers I'm not sure how one would afford 3 cameramen and a belayer, plus paying yourself. Is this all for fun? Are you sponsored? Thanks! I'm really curious!

What is this abomination of a speed route set 🤣, how did they get it so wrong

The sportclimb looks more like 6c for me.
