Beautiful commentary, what a wild insight! I expect in 10, 25, 50 and even 100 years these videos will still be watched by climbers looking back at the history of the sport.
Well said. It cant be overstated how cool it is to have well produced and frequent session vlogs from the best athlete in a given sport. With his own narration. A goat of the people lol
It’s gonna be really crazy to see how social media is going to attribute to history and how differently and frankly wrongly the world might be perceived
It's incredible how much climbing footage your team was able to get from your time in Spain. Even if the main objective was PM, we are all so grateful for the other climbs you were able to document, thank you!
I think climbing is one of the most honest sports. In most sports people only show their successes, but in climbing we see all the failures that lead to that success. Also in climbing you are basically always just competing against yourself. Even in competition, other than speed climbing, you are alone on the wall.
What sports are you talking about? I would say exactly the opposite, that in most sports you see a lot of failure (and sometimes that failure is televised). Most at bats in baseball end in failure, most shots on goal in hockey end in failure, most field goal attempts in basketball end in failure, and the list goes on and on. Most of what we see in sports is a failed attempt. When it comes to extreme sports that aren't aired live like climbing, just because someone decides to include their failures in a video, I don't think there's anything inherently more honest in that than in any other sport. Also, I think it is generally understood that when people are pushing the limits or doing something difficult in extreme sports, most of what they're doing is failing, even if it's not shown.
Gotta love these narrated climbs, always wonder what's going on inside a world class climber like Adam on climbs near his limit. It's nice to know he's a human being too and not a robotic rope gun!
Yeah Adam! So good man! I was cheering for you out loud for that ended crux-so awesome 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 and yes that upper part is so unique! Never seen rock with that kind of a layout 🤔🙂 again, great sending! Great video with a ‘I feel like I’m there watching it live’ vibe 👍🏻
Climbing is just functional strenght, endurance and mental control at its finest. So much respect for the sport. I see a lot of teens thrown into the bodybuilding scene for aesthetics it`s funny almost.
man, I love these vids more than anything else. every time I see one uploaded I get giddy with excitement😂😁😁 Is that just me or are other people the same way?😂
Would it be possible to share the full video of the last 6a part of the whole ascent? That would be fab for absolute beginners like myself and a great learning resource 😉 Amazing to watch as always - so epic place and climbing 😮 Thank you! 🙏
Great Climb Adam!! Congrats!!💪💪 If Ramon says 9a it is probably 9b. Amazing to see AO having to spend so many tries on a 9a. Ramon has a reputation for sandbagging for a reason, hahahahahaha. 💪💪💪
Hey TeamOndra, great job! I really like these kind of videos, the only improvement for me would be, if you could write or say, when the footage was recorded. But still, amazing job!
Best climber in the world has been crushing all climbs above 9a, managed to do a 9c even and after 6 years hopes that particular 9a ,which felt like shit at the time, would be easy now that he's so much stronger. Except it *still* feels like shit, lol! Fantastic video!
Howdy Adam, nice channel like your style, would be nice to see a collab with Magnus Midtbo, would be nice to see your personalities engaged in something common, like a challenge or anything. Keep up the good work!!!
Perhaps it was bad that silence was my introduction to adam... now I watch him do an 8b and I'm like "how do you fall adam? Its an 8b! I can do 8b!😆😆😆" Jokes aside I might be able to do a 4/5 on a wall so take it easy... Epic video collection Adam, I wish you many years of safety, hope you conquer them all.
