    So nostalgic! I often climbed under the Genfofte Bridge as a teenager, around 1998. Once I got stopped by the police, who wanted to know if I was hiding spray cans in the chalk bag. Btw the traverse of the left wall, the direction from the lake was my favorite.

    Nice video, very knowledgeable people, nice editing and well researched. There's not much content on YT about urban climbing.

    Nice, i started urban bouldering with a friend last year when the first lockdown hit as well on a bridge wall in the city and it was a lot of fun. When the gyms opened again we had about 20-30 routes on this wall.

    Very nice. I ended up just making a bouldering wall for me and my kids in Copenhagen in our home during lockdown.

    I knew we French exported the "Allez" in the climbing community, but I didn't know the popularity of our finest contribution to the climbing vocabulary was also growing in Denmark, as shown by 6:20 :)

    There’s a wall near me with almost the same texture and structure as in the start of this. It’s outside the train station. I’ve been thinking about practicing on it at night when there are less people around.

    I was traversing the brick wall next to the running track in Finsbury Park during lockdown... that stone wall looks far more interesting in comparison!

    We had the same situation during the lockdown so we went climbing on a bridge out of stone blocks. Now it's not allowed anymore... Wow great way to take away the last little thing we had when everything else is closed

    We used to train on the hard sandstone walls of Trent Bridge in Nottingham back in the 80s. The ultimate in stamina training. I could traverse it indefinitely with a diver’s weight belt on.

    I did this a few times when I worked at the Pentagon in the early 90s. My partner and I got quite a few quizzical looks from people going in and out of the building, plus some run-ins with security, LOL! But what could they do? We were employees there!
