watched this last night. Great work getting this out Lattice Team. Well done to Sam for putting it all together. and of course Aidan you fricking monster!! amazing to see the next generation turning their strength into consistent solid perfomances!
Even having witnessed a fraction of what he did this summer it was hard to comprehend. But actually watching it all in one go is mind blowing. Another level.
"there is always an illusion that world class climbing lies in different countries or continents" - being an old climber who´ve chosen not to travel anymore but rather develop amazing climbs locally, I could not aggree more. It´s not everyday we see a strong boy with such a humble and well educated vision amidst this world of hypeness and virtual social validation. Very well done guys! 👏
Thank you Sam and Ollie for this. Not only is this a showcase and heralding of a tremendous young talent, but a love letter to the Lake District and to climbing at home.
There was a video of Louis Parkinson awhile back struggling on a crimpy problem and he said something like “Aidan would probably walk up this” and I was like who? Now everyone will know your name. Legend
Amazing film and really well produced! Aidan is such a humble character and it's really inspiring to see him climbing. Always tries hard but never shouts or seems to struggle...! So amazed at his style. I wish I could see more of his future climbing on UA-cam!
dan talking about being content with climbing is so incredibly important. the community is just as, if not more important than sending hard and traveling to "world class destinations". climbing is such a social sport and even tho wherever you go the people are almost always warm and supportive, it can be so difficult to make real connections if you're just running around trying problems you feel like you need to try bc they're classics. i mean im not good enough to even know exactly what this feels like but spending time away from my climbing community makes me appreciate it that much more!!!!
I haven’t watched the video but this seems SICK. Love the work Tom, Ollie, and the rest of the crew that made this possible. If Lattice keeps up with the banger lock up content and starts producing heaters like this, I think we’ll have a new climbing media production empire on our hands. What’s next? You’re going to start making crack climbing holds or something 🤣
Indeed, for me as well, it’s all about the experience of the sport itself, truly amazing and honest vision here. Why go traveling if you can enjoy your life at home, it’s all relative in the end. The environment and future generations will only benefit from it!
It gets better on the second watch. The filmmaking is in itself world class. How the music builds and softens towards the end is perfect accompaniment to the story of a practitioner meeting the resonance with their practice. Amazing! Gives me so much psyche.
So glad Dan made that comment on climbing more at home and burning less carbon. Aidan is climbing at the 'next level' and so the mega project, the (Stanage )Wuthering roof direct awaits. A must for the crimp fan.
Excellent film, and great to see the Lakes shown off this way - I had no idea! Refreshing to hear Dan particularly adding views on long haul flights and how fulfilling a trip to be had with a small environmental impact 👍
Amazing content gents. Well documented, personable and inspiring. The only bad part is it finishing. I know the effort that goes into making just 40 minutes of output and we're all very grateful!
So amazing. I relate to never putting massive amounts of time into a project. I tend to work on things that are doable within a shortish period of time which is good bc I get tons of "hard" climbing volume but I also don't really know my limits
watched it like 3-4x now and still loving it. one of the best inspirational and motivational bouldering videos out there. no crazy psych movie with lots of screaming. just very mellow and much more appealing to me
Nice film! Aidan's progression is really great. Overall travelling and trying boulders on your limits to compare with your local problems is a good thing and will improve your climbing and rating skills. Otherwise I really didn't enjoyed struggling on buttermilk V2s compared to harder FJ problems...
reel rock is focusing more on being woke than showcasing proper hard climbing. They also tend to focus more on big wall stuff and stay away from bouldering. That's how it's been the last few years anyway
Slightly offtopic, but does anyone know what the north face pants he's using at ua-cam.com/video/ATE-tZo12mg/v-deo.html (and other times too) are called?
Love the video but I just don't get the anti travel sub-plot that comes out of nowhere 🤣 of anything I just want to go spend a month in the lake district
unbelievable power and strength, he could create the v17 or higher grades if he so chose. notice how when he swings out his feet he is still in complete control, no other climbers can do that which i've seen
When this one guy said that he thinks Aidan has like top 5 crimp strength I thought this was gonna be measured also and shown on vid. That's the only thing missing! Great interviews and sends etc. footage!
Great film, strong and humble guy! But regardless of co2 footprint, covid aso, to be called "worldclass" you have to climb the hardest boulders all over the world. Otherwise it's "britclass" 😬
Dislike for the environmentalist message being shoved down my throat for the 2nd time in the two hours since I'm awake. Out of principle. We've heard it, no point in repeating any longer. I'm tired of seeing people dragged off the road for protesting, tired of people trying to force their environment-friendly way on others. Go put that energy into actually contributing something, because the people who wanted to listen don't need to hear it anymore and those who don't won't change their ways because of the 63936th exposure to environmentalism.
One of the top climbing documentaries ever made. Super inspiring as a climber, the message couldn't resonate more, and very insightful for future filmmakers. I stumbled across this while having a peak experience on psilocybin and I my jaw was on the floor the whole time. When a line takes so much, a lifes work of training even, and it all comes together like this, its truly a work of art to witness. Aiden, Dan and Jack all seem like top blokes. 10 stars
Such a good story and very well told. I like how the video mirrors his modesty by putting his person in perspective of the people around him. I mean it was not a video about Aiden per se but about him as part of the British climbing scene. Dan's thoughts on climbing in your home area made me understand what 'home' means, generally.
Really really good film. Love how they go in depth into different climbs and into his weaknesses/strengths and experiences. With that said, I welcome y'all to try and boulder in Israel and not want to run away to some world class areas half way around the globe... :D
Absolutely love the little rant around 31:23 about climbing in your own back yard in places that mean something to you without burning tonnes of CO2. Well said.
Britain definitely has some of the hardest bouldering, awesome video to showcase would be cool if some of the international wads came over to experience it.
@@LatticeTraining exactly! I'm from the south east and would love to spend more time on british rock but is always a gamble with conditions where as abroad is generally more consistent
Oh my god, this is absolutely insane stuff. I literally can not even comprehend it right now.. Aidan is just so stupid good at this game what the heck man! And this video is a masterpiece as well!! You really did a great job capturing the spirit and essence of what makes this so special I think. My jaw was on the ground so many times during this, I can't even.. The sense of pure awe I have right now can not be expressed, and yet I think you know exactly how it feels too. Wow, just... wow
Thank you lattice for this great documentary. It’s awesome to see displayed how climbing is always embedded in a philosophy. Very insightful to think on how the best climbing in the world may well be the one we have locally, more so if taken into account the value of our local community, of our friends and history, of the place that for the moment we consider home.

Get Aidan on 'Burden of Dreams', it might suit him!
I mean yeah, but the point of the documentary was on how you don’t need to travel far from home to find great climbing.
@@Hanuman_ “i mean ye”, but that doesnt mean he shouldnt try it
he was on it but it’s bloody hard
Think you underestimate burden of dreams.

Outdoor climbing in the Netherlands is pretty rad indeed!
@@jannemanderoon887 there are some boulders
Thank you Sam and Ollie for this. Not only is this a showcase and heralding of a tremendous young talent, but a love letter to the Lake District and to climbing at home.
A love letter to any place any of us may call home! Great video and sentiments! Love from Vermont!!
Mega. Hopefully inspire generations to come.
It's like a Christmas gift, thank you very much for this documentary!

Please do more of these. Our community needs them.
It gets better on the second watch. The filmmaking is in itself world class. How the music builds and softens towards the end is perfect accompaniment to the story of a practitioner meeting the resonance with their practice. Amazing! Gives me so much psyche.
I can say it gets better on the 15th+ watch too.
This got me so fucking psyched to try hard, not just physically but mentally! Let's get out minds right bois. It's project season.
Inspire and motivate me as a young climber really much.
Such a high quality Bouldering and Video editing
Just wow...the quality of this video was also world class! Thank you for sharing this with us for free!
More planned for 2021!
So glad Dan made that comment on climbing more at home and burning less carbon. Aidan is climbing at the 'next level' and so the mega project, the (Stanage )Wuthering roof direct awaits. A must for the crimp fan.
🤔 climb more at home 🤷♂️
Excellent film, and great to see the Lakes shown off this way - I had no idea! Refreshing to hear Dan particularly adding views on long haul flights and how fulfilling a trip to be had with a small environmental impact 👍
I love that watching this makes me think "Oh wow he's so humble" about aggressive sandbagging instead of... Well, I'm sure you know what.
I was searching for this 8C+ send for couple days. Finally!
Absolutely brutal on small grips. good job on the film
British bouldering has something special
. Thanx for this guys.. Its freakin' awesome
Thanks!
Can't wait for season 2 with Alphane in it
Amazing content gents. Well documented, personable and inspiring. The only bad part is it finishing. I know the effort that goes into making just 40 minutes of output and we're all very grateful!
The British bouldering film of 2020. Very inspiring. Really want to be up in Cumbria right now :)
Wow one of the best climbing movies this year! I really enjoyed it. =) Thanks for it
So amazing. I relate to never putting massive amounts of time into a project. I tend to work on things that are doable within a shortish period of time which is good bc I get tons of "hard" climbing volume but I also don't really know my limits
Brilliant: Climber, Routes, Production and Edit Muchos Respectos and Happy Christmas to all involved !
Nice video such a inspiration to watch. 33:59 for some boulder shoulders 😉
Yup, total shoulder beast. He does train hard so totally deserves it.
WOW ! no words, thank you so much Aidan and the crew for the motivation !
wow! such a great documentary! great work Aidan, Sam and ollie !
Solid film for sure. Great story + excellent climbing. Thanks for putting this together.
A great film, inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
So, so well done. Totally inspires me to keep climbing harder and check out more local boulders!
watched it like 3-4x now and still loving it. one of the best inspirational and motivational bouldering videos out there. no crazy psych movie with lots of screaming. just very mellow and much more appealing to me
Absolutely crushing it! 🔥
This is such a great watch.
Great job!
Incredible
This video reminded me of how lucky I am to live where I live. Yorkshire ❤️
7:59 is all the motivation i need to work on back/lat strength
Quality video. Great story and footage. Inspiring .
nice documentary!
This gives us so much,wonderful.

Good film Sam and Aidan. I enjoyed it.
Really enjoyed that, well done to everyone involved
amazing film, story and boulders 👍

What a nice difference in tone from the guys on mellow...
Great video. Greg has produced a brill guide book.
The vid that launched 1000 ....inbound flights from Boulder CO to Carlisle
Really good video.Thanks
This dude is insanely strong. It seriously looks like no amount of force could straighten his arms.
very nice. thanks!!
What an epic video!!! Also anyone know the song around 18:50 please?
I get really bored of watching the typical american bouldering videos. This video was awesome by comparison. Nice work!
Thanks 🙏 😊
Ehhh, why wasn't this featured on reel rock?! What a film Great work from the guys at wedge climbing
reel rock is focusing more on being woke than showcasing proper hard climbing. They also tend to focus more on big wall stuff and stay away from bouldering. That's how it's been the last few years anyway
@@hyau23 no point in even engaging in this bad take, imagine trying to say action directe and magic line arent "hard climbing" 🙄
@@shadowmage680 lol
brand and model of those grayblack pants you wear?
Would love to know too, brand is North face (? ) but cant seem to find model.
Nice!
Can anyone link the guidebook for lake disctrict bouldering?
whats the name of the song here 19:00
anybody know the name of the song at 16:20?
34:05 unreal shoulders
The amount of raw strength this guy possesses in every part of his body is crazy
Yes he's strong but he also climbs with immaculate style and precision
thought I was the only aiden roberts guess I was wrong
Surely he tried Shadowplay?
Slightly offtopic, but does anyone know what the north face pants he's using at ua-cam.com/video/ATE-tZo12mg/v-deo.html (and other times too) are called?
Love the video but I just don't get the anti travel sub-plot that comes out of nowhere 🤣 of anything I just want to go spend a month in the lake district

This guy gives me Harry Potter of climbing vibes
Aidan is a total crimp mutant. What are they feeding this lad?
Hah, first.

Haha! Well said!

Also his shoulders are ginormous :D

One of the best climbing documentaries out there. So inspiring. Can‘t wait to see more of aidan! Greetings from germany.
Been looking forward to this for months! Cheers Lattice (and Aidan)
Yeah especially well done Aidan 💪💪

I met Aidan in Magic Wood once and I just regret not staying 2 days longer to watch him climb in person. amazing documentary.
Such an amazing production guys, thank you! I would describe energy of this movie and Aidan as a "calm power" 💪
Well put! 😁💪💪💪
YES! It's so relaxing and completely mind blowing simultaneously. Simply serene hard as fuck climbing
Absolutely love the little rant around 31:23 about climbing in your own back yard in places that mean something to you without burning tonnes of CO2. Well said.
advertising every TEN minutes?? really youtube... are you kidding me??
It blows my mind just how strong Aidan is. The world is literally his oyster.
