    I gotta be honest, these board climbing videos are some of the best climbing content videos on UA-cam right now. Absolutely killer vibe with the basement colours, tight space and incredible chill personalities. Plus, it doesn't hurt that these climbing peeps are absolute monsters! Aiden... nuff said, but Molly is also killer!!

      All the problems look absolutely brutal, it'll never cease to amaze me how easy they look when climbed by Aidan, (and also Molly this time)
