There is no such thing as snug comfy climbing shoes. Either they are snug and really painful or comfy and fall of before the first clip. There is nothing in between, nothing!
We want more of arren
Incredible climber but that’s not the physic of someone who does 1000 pull-ups a week
Random german guy xD
I feel so inspired rn
Louis the loser
"i dont even warm up on v5s" was so demoralizing 😭
Finally some love for big rock!
19:50. I am a counsellor and novice climber and this was a full blown CBT session. Love it!
Ya know I’ve seen Louis collab with a lot of people, I’ve also seen Magnus collab with a WHOLE lot of people. (In person) Notice the problem yet????
When Louis goes static, he turns into a sloth and I am all here for it 😂
Much Love.... you inspired me guys to start climbing.... and i already started ... 2 sessions in and doing v6 already... again much love, respect and appreciation for the door you opened for me
I am a little bit late to the party, but Jo, you are way, way stronger than you think! Unbelievable effort as well. When you seem not to think and just tried very hard, you got it or got very, very close. Very impressive, very inspirational.
Nah men I love Louis, he is so kind and encouraging
Doing it without stepping up method? But in the slow motion after the jump he does kick motion towards the flat wall. Is kicking off the wall not same as stepping up method?
That's what I was wondering!
Well done, Sam! You're a natural!
awesome Louis :D
This was great. Loved the comparison! Makes it easier to learn.
Time for Sam to challenge Louis to a dyno-off!
Obviously it's harder with higher weight on slabby footholds. Similar ish surface area with completely different weights on top.
13:27 Matching the last hold with a middle finger xD
Looks like Louis had "cupping". That's pseudoscience Louis. Get some real physio.
Sam that was sick! You might need a new camera man soon after your promotion ;) insane world record there!
NDL
@8:07 "But that did feel close" You said that sooo like Louis....
Great job hosting, Sam! Would love to see more! Also, Riki's performance was insane!!
Does using the black volume mean he cheated? Genuine question
This intro 😂😂
Louis, what is that sweater? It's awesome!
Representando o Brasil!
Just to be clear in case I've got the wrong definition but the aim of flashing the gym didn't happen right? I saw I think 2 falls off the wall but it was never addressed so now I'm unsure.
This was great!
Well done, Sam. Doubling for Captain Footloose👍👍👍. I genuinely think, you approach is beneficial; setting the hold further away in steps, having a row of successful attempts in the build up - opposed to having a row of failures as you get warm and close in on the hold. Very interesting to watch 👍💪☀️👍.
Man that was awesome
Saw Louis coaching someone at RavensWall last week. I've been climbing a month so had no idea who he was - I just remember thinking 'wow that guy is soooo positive' 😂
Isn't speed climbing just one mega dyno?
Awesome work! And did not think Louis would be someone who would do cupping. Can't win them all!
Leva os caras pra fazer seus dynos da 90 kkkkkkk
Boa riki caraioo
This is in my opinion not climbing but more like freerunning
Didn't i see storrror Toby do a 3m dyno not even a month ago in some video?
Should have done the city walls in dubrovnik. The views are stunning!
Oh, the amount of airtime!
Esse cara é meu ídolo,
Wondering how other variables play a role here... It seems all 3 angles make a difference to how difficult this is. It would be nice to test it out :)
Insane dynos all around! Sam did an amazing job as a host😁
Tf happened do your back????
Is it me or does the world record keep changing?
10:14 sping wan
Hahah
