    As an OG fan, all I want to see is you enjoy and try boulders at your local gym and just talk and climb. You are why we watch! I miss the days where I could come home and see a 30 minute video of you just climbing hard boulders and talking to us.

    Yess Magnus, more bouldering or climbing please. I´m this year 46 years into climbing and still can't get enough. My max boulder grade is almost the same as yours, only divided by three or four. I enjoy so much to see you climbing, your perfection in this sport is absolut incredible for me. I get wet fingers when you do hard problems, I am always fighting with you and take it as a inspiration, when I go to my boulder gym and say to myself: "Yess, let's check out this freaking hard 6b+...try always hard!!!"

  • @heliophial
    @heliophial 9 місяців тому +470

    Hey Magnus, I think videos on this channel should be 'low effort'. Not 'bad', but your main channel can have all the polish, editing, and most importantly - time - taken to get them as good as you like. Use this channel as an outlet to share whatever you want without pressure. Some barely edited clips of you trying problems with some VO, chatting with other climbers, maybe behind the scenes of your disguises. The hardest part of that will be actually clicking 'Publish' knowing that you can make the video better if you put in another 10 hours - resist that feeling!

    I just remembered how I found Magnus 1,5 years ago and thought climbing would be an easy sport...
    Now Iˋve climbed for a year and know:
    No it´s not...😂
    That happens when you just watch the pros kids😂

    I loved watching your recent reaction videos, and videos showing you trying hard on cool comp climbs or boulders are also great! I think making this channel more climbing-focused would draw in a lot more climbing viewers (especially as this sport is growing so quickly).

    Really enjoyed this video, and loved the chats between you and Jordan about how they set and the intended beta for every climb

    My favorite are your long format lead climbing videos! Also, your tips/training videos are always so informative and fun to watch!

    Great bouldering content I'm surprised that this is not on the main channel! But I get the idea as the main channel grew so diversely it's great to have more climbing content here! Best of luck we're watching you 😉

    Awesome! Just love watching you try hard boulders. I think getting some other climbers on is always cool
