  • ​‪@WilliamBosi‬ is back at it, time for more replica training! But this time Will has a big sport climbing goal in mind. In this video Will Bosi is setting a replica of Stefano Ghisolfi's famous Excalibur (9b+) route. In particular, the upper boulder problem section which weighs in around 8B+/8C boulder difficulty. The moves on this climb are crazy hard with a desperate crux move that in known for putting off Adam Ondra, the best sport climber in the World!
    Watch this space. Last time Will trained on a replica, it was not long until we saw a second ascent of the hardest boulder in the world!

  • @climblikeagirl
    @climblikeagirl 10 місяців тому +2

    I feel the replicas should be called "beta replicas", because they replicate certain approach to the section. For example shorter climber might be able to find some more additional smears/bad footholds on the actual route, whereas the replica you set does not contain those. In our gym we are suffering from having a tall routesetter setting replicas of some boulders just for himself, where he omits some of the footholds, just because he doesn't need them for HIS beta... :(

    • @zacharylaschober
      @zacharylaschober 10 місяців тому +4

      Setting this way for a commercial gym is atrocious. Replicas take time to form, needing several iterations and often rules on hold use, and presumably without those holds this also makes the climb generally inaccessible besides not being a good replica. All sorts of matters wrong with such an approach

    • @agp10701
      @agp10701 10 місяців тому +1

      Have you seen magnus doing the boulders of Ondra on the video of the original moonboard? Each boulder Ondra made keeping the tension on far small feet holds,and than you imagine it is impossible to Magnus to make that move,abd than he literally campus on tiny smaller crimps.
      That is the beauty of climbing. Solving problems with the "tools" that we have. Use our strenghts and train our weakness points 💪

    • @zacharylaschober
      @zacharylaschober 10 місяців тому

      @@agp10701 except this is a replica of a problem with holds unused by one person not included in a commercial setting, which is a whole different issue. Plus, as nice as using relative strengths and morphology is, campusing on small crimps when someone else can maintain feet is not using a relative strength but a discrepancy in difficulty. This is also one of the major flaws of the Moon Board is an inability to designate feet and often an overreliance on the kickboard which makes the problems quite span dependent or else significantly harder.
      Great that Magnus can campus a move on the board, and is what it is, outside is the same is you only get the holds you get and have to work with the rock, but in a gym not making climbing accessible with intermediate feet is lazy, and not including holds you skip for a replica of a problem in a commercial setting is worse than lazy.

      @@zacharylaschober I understand and agree with your point of view of a lazy routesetter on a comercial gym, and worse if he is short or tall and makes a bunch of boulders with his size,is stupid.
      But what I pretend it to say(and that is my approach in climbing)is that I like the problem solving and the chalenge of improve my weakness points instead of trying to find excuses to don't send the boulders...

      @@agp10701 oh definitely, the reality is whatever strengths and morphology you have... you have, and no amount of excuses change those. Think Drew Ruana is my favorite for this, with a rather short reach relative to most other boulderers at his level, especially on climbs like Ice Knife Sit where this forced such an obscene sequence others do not have to do. Ultimately, if he wanted to climb this, no amount of excuses would help.

    I'll be honest, replicas just seem so lame. They make the send of the real thing just so much less interesting.
