    This is the video I was looking for, thank you for creating this. I find myself doing these without that much awareness, and sometimes I don't know whether or not I'm doing it correctly. This is a well made video. You earned a subscriber my friend.

      Yeah I think it's really common to do things intuitively at first, I have a ton of old videos where I accidentally stumble upon climbing techniques that I wouldn't become more consistent with for another 6 months to a year lol

    this is such an important focus area on the body! the visual examples really help with understanding how you've benefitted from making adjustments to your hips!

    You're right, I don't understand it😉... but after thirty years of climbing I can say I use all of those techniques and it's as natural as walking. Knowing how to control and utilise your centre of gravity is a game changer. I never really thought about until I started teaching others and trying to figure out why they are struggling when I just breeze up the moves (sometimes it's vice versa). It's why I love climbing... it's so nuanced... sometimes a little thing like the position of your head can make all the difference! A great video on an important and very overlooked aspect of climbing. 👍

      Appreciate this comment, wonderful insights here. Agree with how nuanced climbing is, and it always makes me fall in love with it more. It always gets me psyched to think about how much more I can learn

    As a short climber, I desperately need the few inches extra of reach that hip mobility allows me to have. It baffles me to see people climbing as hard as I do without even using those techniques. So I guess I had to learn those techniques way earlier than somoebody who has a lot of reach and those people will have to learn it way later in their climbing journey.

    • @BetaBoiBrandon
      @BetaBoiBrandon  Рік тому +3

      Haha I'm also pretty short so I can relate to everything you said! I even had a conversation with a short pro climber and he mentioned the same thing you did about how short climbers need to learn some of this stuff at earlier grades. On the bright side though, at least it gets you used to looking for these more nuanced movements sooner rather than later, which is always nice for progressing faster at later grades than the earlier ones

    Love your videos (incl that one). Just a quick comment that the voice is difficult to understand. Have you tried using a close mic?

    • @BetaBoiBrandon
      @BetaBoiBrandon  Рік тому +1

      Haha i do use a mic, but i think my voice either doesn't carry well or the mic isn't that helpful... I'll play around with audio settings more, though. Thanks for the feedback!

    I call it "Gravity point Climbing". The gravity point is in your hips, if you bring that point above the surface of your feetsteps you climbed like a professional (also in lower grade like a 4a). For sure this need hip flexibility (Frog) . When we stand we need no power in the hands, all the weight is above our feet surface , Climbing is so easy in contrary to Tennis or Table tennis ! :)

    • @BetaBoiBrandon

      It's from the Stream Beats library, so you may have heard it from other content creators since it's free lol. This video uses tracks from the White album

    Just some feedback, your music volume is literally the same level/louder than your voice.

    Seems like really useful stuff. Alas, I cannot listen as the background music is too distracting and stressful for me. I wonder what is the purpose of it...

    I feel like being a static climber isn’t bad Shawn da output is more of a static climber and he climbs v17 I just think it’s important to know when to be dynamic our static

    • @BetaBoiBrandon
      @BetaBoiBrandon  Рік тому +2

      Agree completely, I think it's more that it's difficult to be both concise and give a complete picture in a video script. I mainly wanted those sections to be for people who default to pulling with their arms a lot, not to be a blanket statement on whether static climbing is good or bad (so like advice for a targeted audience rather than universal principles). Will definitely keep this in mind for future scripts, thanks!

  • @gunitt7985

    Hey, nice video. Can I ask, where did the 96% come from?

  • @gezzapk
    @gezzapk Рік тому +1

    Finger strength is probably more important for higher grades. Hips are very fundamental for anything V4 or lower

    • @pascaljutras178
      @pascaljutras178 Рік тому +6

      The beauty with hips is about the possibility to do higher grades without too much finger strength. My hips flexibility is crazy good (I am born like that), I learned to use it at my max and I can go up to V7 even if I have very low finger strength (I am 50, my body got some mileage, if I push training to get better fingers I am getting injured most of time). So I disagree about hips not so important over V4, yes for sure strong fingers can compensate a bad technic but there is limitations.
