Training At Most Hazardous Home Climbing Gym
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2022
- Wide Boyz build more training facilities to train on before their up coming crack climbing trip to America. Ollie Torr makes a guest appearance without realising what he's getting himself into.
They build a new finger crack and ring lock crack and dig in with their first session just a few weeks before leaving.

I love that we've got two coaches taping Pete's hands into little lobster claws so he doesn't cheat - not something I ever thought I'd see - but I'm glad I did! Haha amazing stuff as always.
The Cray ring more like the crayon eh
"I cut it twice and it is still too short". This was pretty cool actually. Showing the setup and approach for the specific training to be done.
love how these people literally sell crack trainers/holds and they still feel the need to make some weird frankenstein's monster type deal :'D Amazing episode, glad to have learned about the lobster ring technique!
😂 there's a big difference from what Tom does in his garden and what happens in the Wide Boyz company (and lattice company) with products...thank goodness haha
Clearly wide boys need to start selling a ring lock trainer.
At least we know Tom isn't stealing company inventory for his own use.
@@JonnyDavidC haha true! :D
I'm impressed the garden board is still standing! It was scary standing under it 5 years ago!
😂 i can't believe it stayed standing after it's relocation down the garden
please don't grind with gloves on, if it snags a thread you can mangle the appendage.
maybe caldwell needs a friend?
Had a lad in my class who sanded his fingers at school flesh and blood on the big sanding disc, fun times.
Marshall Tucker yes can knacker fingers or rip one off or even de-glove a finger to the bone.
That's a very valid point
2:00 dont use gloves while operating a grinder or disc sander, etc. while it will protect you from small scratches if your glove gets caught in the machine your hand is super fucked.
I love that you still use the O-grading system. Always cracks me up.
How does it work?
@@samuelprescott7426 Ondra
@@samuelprescott7426 Its the number of sessions it would take for Adam Ondra to finish the problem.
outside climbing board in the UK is the most optimistic thing I've seen in a long time. If you wanted it to keep dry atleast.
This video was so awesome and funny to watch, would love to see more like it
these sort of videos from you guys are my favorite.
Just after discovering your channel in the first summer of covid, I used my first real ring lock and it was all: OH! _that's_ how it works! It's great!
This has the same energy as me setting up rope swings in the barn outside the house I grew up in. Entertaining and hillariously dangerous.
I loved this video. Everything about it. Quality chuckles.
Pete's fingers are so beefy, his hands don't even look real. Great video as always!
They have been confused with sausages 😅
I thought I had fat fingers. Then I saw Pete's.
Another just hilarious video by you guys 😂 it's so fun watching your shinanigans
Those ring locks look soo difficult with that smooth edge wood. Wicked
Yeh defintely a little tricky the edge felt quite rounded and flaring. Ringte locks is defintely a weakness so there is always plenty to train and learn 😀
@@WideBoyz there’s a lovely roundabout in Barcelona with what look to me like a lot of nice ring locks cracks (I’m no expert thought) you should check it out if you are in town ! It’s called plaça de botticelli
love seeing the training set up! is there a "tick list" for the upcoming trip?
Try everything that's fun and hard. That's my plan (pete) 🙂
This is the best climbing wall ever! It's message is, anybody can build one! Thanks for that!
My hand hurts from watching, looks so cold out there!
You guys are just awesome
props to the editor for syncing the video and music so nicely
Love seeing Ollie out in the wild haha
Measure once, cut twice! 😂😂😂🤘💪. Btw, I've talked to every climbing gym in my town if they could set some cracks. Answer: No, there is no demand! Bloody weak links. No bother, will build one at my house! 😂🤘. Thanks for the inspiration and good luck at the Indian Creek
If you’re ever in Edinburgh……’Alien Bloc’ has a cheeky crack.💪🏻🏴
Bummer that's some sad setters
It will come soon 🙂
Same answer at mine. So boring
@@bazwax77 my local too, need to get them to set some problems around it
The measuring wasn't pointless - it was the precursor to perfection. Great job fellas.
if you guys want good cracks to train on next time you’re heading to yosemite stop by granite arch in sacramento! I’d love to see you guys on our cracks!
I did notice the cheeky pinky getting some extra grip!
Proper job. Magnus will be envious 😂
You guys love choss so much your training boards even have it..
great work, are you using screws treated for outdoor use? should sheer/break less frequently if you arnt using em already
That's the beauty of wooden handholds. When they go out just use em for firewood or compost em. Throw em in the woods, whatever.
If they're untreated wood of course. I just put my wooden holds in the compost bin when I'm done with em. Mainly from the outdoors wall, wooden holds kept indoors keeps a long while. :)
Yo! You guys need to get on Dean Potter's Tombstone or Excommunicator! Epic!
Hahaha Ollie 😂 Who knew the key was pretaping your finger positions 🤣🤣
I will also have to try this taping method for crimpy face climbing.
Can you talk about how you use that grind wheel for your boots?
and I dub thee "the open lobster ringlock"!
Got a couple thousand dollars worth of rotten lattice rungs on that wall
this is exactly why i tape my thumb against my palm when im going cracking
A new move: the pinky pinch! Taping my ring locks for SURE the next time I'm in The Creek!
Pete's pinkies look like thumbs and looks like his hands are on backwards
4:52 is that someone's ringtone or did someone step on a screw? sounded painful
That board looks like tetanus is the booster shot you need ;)! Best part was the "oh no, what happened??" - "It's still hard!" ;)
I am thinking of putting up some wooden cracks in a roof (42-43°) and wanted to ask for tipps/advice. The boards will be ~15cm deep and relatively smooth... should I tape them? Any must-have widths (I have around 50cm in width to set up different cracks and a few meters in length)? I am a total noob and (unfortunately) not my own roof, so I could only train there a few times each year... Would be grateful for any help/advice!
Do you have the original design for this garden board? Debating building something myself. I need more crack.
Psyched to see you getting to O2. Out of interest, what O grade do you think Recovery Drink is itself?
I would say around O5 or O6.
The reverse Tommy Caldwell tape job
That's the cobra crack next to it, isn't it? That backyard wall is a history museum!
Yeh it's cobra with some modifications
Just realised you guys got a gym, what's the postcode thanks in advance
Gloves and grinding wheels, Sounds like the title of a safety video haha.
Question from a noncrack addict, always wondered what it's like falling while jamming. Surely it would just wreck the wrists?
@Mischa Hawker-Yates thanks man!
Is pre-taping a ring lock considered aid?
Are you guys training for a go at Purity Ring?
wearing those gloves at the grinder gets me worried it'll catch and you'll get de-gloved
Guys! Your psych is contagious 👏🏻💪🏻🤙🏻🔥🏴🧗🏻♂️
Measure once, cut twice.... then just whack in a block. It'll be reyt!
DIY kings!
The beauty is you can shred yourself on almost anything if you're only willing to.
Measure twice cut once or not in this case 😂
That isnt "british enough" ... because there should be at least 10 warning stickers!
this looks so damn painfull to the fingers and finger joints!
Cut myself by just looking at that climbing wall. Looks dangerous!
You should call it the Tetanus Board.
Hey! I've praticed my ring locks lately. What do you guys think how I'm doing -> 👌 ?
do i know how to crack climb? no
do i also want to drop everything and head out to moab in four weeks for the slight possibility of running into tom and pete?
yes
To think this is how you become the best crack climbers in the world.....
these guys like pain lol
Self torture D I Y; excellent.
1:12
Meaty Pete Lobster Claws
Would you buy a climbing wall or crack volumes off these guys??? 😂
As the proverb goes: "The cobbler has the worst shoes". But I agree, that looked dangerous and doesn't create a good image.
@@JL-pc2eh I'm totally not questioning their products or the image of those. I own crack trainers & gloves and quality is first rate. This vid is just totally on-brand and hilarious. More so for the context :)
This video could be sponsored by someone that makes tetanus vaccine!
Tom says it's the most rotten home climbing wall but I say it's just as all home walls should be 😎
Cellar must be worse.
Dirt bag climbing lodge. Brilliant. X-)
Noice
🤦♂️
Chossy 😂😂
First?!?!
