- Let me know which climb you like the most and if your beta looks like mine! I love how climbing is such an individual sport, with so many ways to dace up each boulder 😍
Another Anna-Explains-in-way-too-much-detail-how-she-climbs-climbs episode! Thinking of making this a series in itself for all my fellow beta-geeks!
This one is more vloggy, so if you want to skip right into the juice (aka the send vids) I time stamped them:
3:47 Green Traverse (V6)
8:11 Not to be Taken Away (V5)
9:40 Crescent Arete (V2)
13:23 Brad Pitt (V9) ... fail outtakes haha
This was before second quarantine measures were set up, when it was okay to travel (and we had to for our broken van!). Weird times we live in.
Also remember to vote today!

No deliverance! Waiting on that one. Stanage rock type is grit stone btw. Cool video tho nice to see you got hit up some Peak District spots, look forward to the next vid
I know!!! We ran out of time/my shoulder felt bad but we were going to go there after Brad Pitt! I still have to go back to try!
Keep crushing it Anna! I couldn't do these boulders last time I went to Stanage, but you've made me really want to go back asap to try them again! You make them look easy 😁💪
Yes! Once the world is fit for travel again... definitely get it!
I wish I had 1/10 of the strength and technic that you have :) Anna you're so kool
🙈🙊🙏🏽🥰
Great video. Crescent arete and Not to be Taken Away are my two dream boulders in the peak, such cool lines. I've not been to see them cause I don't think I'm strong enough yet, and I bet they are much scarier in person.
Thanks :) yes they’re incredible, I’m so glad I got to hop on them! They’re pretty tall, so I’d recommend waiting for a really frictiony day/ strong day with lots of pads and support. Also, not to be taken away has the crux at the beginning, which is nice because if you get through it, you can know you’re more than capable to make it to the top!
did someone drop their haul bag at 4:52?
Learned a new word today. (Cathartic)involving the release of strong emotions through a particular activity or experience. Got a sub from me
I'm bad at remembering beta too. I can only remember the hard parts people point out to me lol. Keep it up though, you're an incredible climber!
Yeah!! I can remember them after I’ve moved through them, but in a flash attempt sometimes I feel so lost 😂😂 thank you :)
All of these climbs look sick af.
Cool to see you enjoying these classics.
Can't wait for when I can come back and try more of them :)
The first 3 are some of Stanage's best. Never tried Brad Pit. Great effort.
They really were!! Brad Pit is pretty cool as well :)
My friend is trying Not To Be Taken Away at the moment (when conditions allow). That first foot is soooo polished! It needs to be a lot cooler me thinks.
It really is!! This day was absurdly humid making everything feel just... awful 😂 but maybe tell your friend about the heel hook beta! I thought it was loads easier esp. with that greasy foot!!
Great video, as usual!
Thanks!! :)
Go back to the peak! Great job
Really enjoyed you talking through those climbs and explaining what was going through your head as you were on the boulder. Also, I'd bet good money that, pound for pound, you're way stronger than all those burly 6ft men!
😂🙈🙊 too kind too kind! Some of em are super strong 💪🏽 but maybe on some styles I’ve got em beat haha. Glad you enjoyed the video! I like these beta breakdowns :)
Great video! :)!!
Keep it up!
My fav was Not to be Taken Away, I love the views but I'm an acrophile so the higher the better
Nice! Same, that was probs my favorite too. haha I’m slowly becoming that way as I do more and more sport/alpine climbing 😜
Good job great climbing 🧗♀️
Thank you 🤗
@@AnnaHazelnutt you welcome
@@AnnaHazelnutt I would suggest you one of the unique climbing that’s waterfalls climbing
My cousin has a workshop right next to Curbar. I'm sure he'd be happy to have the work.
Ah thank you! But ez and I are already back in Spain now! These videos are a bit behind reality
My car did „that sound“ when my timing chain was about done. Depending on how long it’s been since it got changed, maybe take a look at that .
Usually they last around 150k km
Ahhh okay okay cool I’ll see if that’s it, thanks! Van just hit 150 lol
You should come climb at Smith Rock. I think you would excel there.
It’s definitely on my list this season!
Never get sucked into other ppl's beta. I'm 5'10" (with a minus 5 ape index) and all my climbing friends are 6'2" (and plus 10 ape index) and taller. Their beta is utterly useless to me 9 times out of 10. They're like: "Just reach through to that hold" (somewhere in the stratosphere)! Nope! I almost always need a high drop-knee, rock-on or hell-hook to get to that thing way off in the distance somewhere! The burly guys are probably all jealous of your elegant beta as they are all to stiff to lift their legs that high!!! LOL. Develop your own style and just ignore the spray coming from ppl with completely different body types. Whenever I listen to the advice from below I will fall, when I manage to shut it out I send.
A cool drill for developing and extending your technique is to traverse in the gym but choose the weirdest holds and all kinds of awkward positions then figure it out on the fly how to progress - you must flow and climb quickly - and not step of the wall. This forces you to adapt and be flexible in your approach to problem solving and it makes you strong in ways that you would never achieve with regular redpointing of projects. I have trained many intermediate climbers in this unusual way and their grades jump up 2-3 grades within a couple of weeks. It forces you to be fluid, to free up your feet, ankles, hips and core to rotate and twist, rather than just being focused on hand movements.. It also radically improves en-route problem solving and destroys any kind of rut or routine you may have gotten into which is almost always counter productive - you have to keep your body in a state of reaction to new stimuli to keep progressing. Try it, it's fun too!
For the drill to work properly you must not think about the moves - just eye holds in strange arrangements (too far, too high, too low, no feet etc.) and just go for it. Throw your self into the moves and just see what happens, fight your way through the first time around the wall (next time will be easier - when it becomes fluid and easy then swop up your hand or feet sequences - cross under and over etc.). If you fall off, so what? Jump straight back on without analysing what happened at all and go again. Climb FAST! The aim is adaptation and arousal of instinctive responses to unusual scenarios. You will gain a VAST array of engrams in an extremely short space of time.
Thank you so much! This sounds like a frikkin great drill omg! I'll do it next time I have access to a climbing gym. I feel like I've always known not to just follow other people's beta, and used to ALWAYS try to break beta and slither by on my wits (lol), but lately I've found value in getting stronger and pulling hard moves just for the sake of pulling hard moves to train for outdoors... but then when I get outdoors I'm like, OH YEAH it's time to actually just do my thing, we're not training anymore! haha.
Let's see if I jump a few grades :P (jk)
You said in this video you hope the high ball boulders help the lead climbing... Little did you know you'd be smashing out some impressive and scary trad before long!
Who woulda thunk!! Haha
If you like high balls then Mabye give archangel a try, it’s on the crag above plantation.
woah new evolv shoes??
Phantoms!!! But I still have to break em in lol
Ha no way, I climbed with you guys on Brad Pitt. It’s a shame you were more successful than me
Ahha Wild you found me! Yeah I’ll have to go back for it with better temps! Lmk if you get it 💪🏽
You shouldn't really keep a UK registered car overseas for more than a short time. If you live in Spain, the vehicle needs to be registered there. Especially after the end of the Breakshit transition period. Your insurance probably won't be valid.
Technically this is Ezra's van and he has a UK passport/insurance on it so I think it's fine, but when I decide to convert my own van, I'll def keep this in mind!
The use of the word „like“ in this video is at least as extreme as the climbing🤣
What are you up to in Switzerland?
Ahahaha I was super aware of my extra-California talk this episode but hoped it would slide by unnoticed 😂 gotta work on this lol!
I was just there for a week for a photo shoot, then went back to Spain where I live :)
Holy shit, I know that face!
Ahhhh!! It me! How are you? Haha
So good! I'm moving out to J-tree this Monday for the season. I work remote and the gyms are forevor closed, so I thought of this brilliant plan. Glad to be following your adventures now, this is so sick! What a gorgeous location you've been!
@@Tclack Oh my gosh!!! Keep me updated, Jtree is such a dream! Definitely planning a California trip back home (when it's possible) and would be psyched to meet up with you if you're still there. Really great choice though; make the outdoors your gym :D Amazing to hear from you
You'll out climb me for sure, but I'll have the gear and hopefully will learn all the local tribal knowledge. I'll be here until at the end of April. I'll keep checking the slack channel, or you could always message me here. Keep sending!
PS. my abs still hurt from that workout we did in the rec cen
Nice! I thought brad pitt is V8, did it get upgraded?
It actually used to be V10 and got downgraded to V9!
@@AnnaHazelnutt I sent it ages ago and the guide book then said 7B+, must be a sandbagged guidebook haha!
Aaahahha omg it looks like this climb is all over the place 😂 maybe it got double upgraded and then downgraded to an equilibrium? Either way, strong send nice work!
@@AnnaHazelnutt Thanks!
