Visited Rise a couple months ago - one thing to note is that their walls aren't textured so this definitely makes the climbs more challenging and forces your footwork to be better!
I went to Rise a few months back and it is such a humbling gym. They're so good at setting interesting/technical moves on lower grade blocs, I need to go back
@@hannahmorrisbouldering Yeah, people watching this who haven't been there really won't understand just how stiff it is 😅Rise is easily the stiffest gym I've been to in London, even stiffer than Mile End (which is a gym you should defo try out, the comp wall there is fantastic)
I love you building not only your strength but also your confidence Hannah! ☺️ I feel like the biggest lesson you learnt especially from Louis was splitting challenging climbs up in smaller chunks rather than giving up after a few tries - at least that really helps me on my lower level too! ☺️ You seem so much more confident in your own skill and keep on trying - it’s really inspiring to watch! Thank you so much for sharing your progress! Love from Germany, Jess 🤗🥰
Great effort girls!! I love seeing how you both change the way you climbed to find the beta based on each others styles! Love watching you projecting Hannah! Great effort🎉
It's awesome how many new gyms are opening over there (meaning the UK, I'm watching from Germany) recently. In my area there are probably 4 climbing walls, and only one of those is pure bouldering. Luckily I live very near to the best of the four, where they didn't just throw in a bouldering corner as an afterthought ;) Keep up the great work you do, it's always fun to watch you and your guests climb! EDIT: Nice chalkbag btw 😜
Lucky that you live close by to the best ones. There's so many popping up all over the UK lately - always a lot of fun to visit a new one and explore a new style of setting! :)
@@hannahmorrisbouldering Thanks! I am still doing stretches etc. and hope to resume in a much lighter capacity soon. Not being at the gym is a bit annoying.
@@solidvivek i know what you mean had a bit of a mean hand injury and had to have a few weeks off ( i know it’s not as serious at all but being away from the gym is still torture even if not for that long 😂)
This whole video is so fun and relatable! I have a stiff hip too (and ankle, and other things. Age lol) so yes modifications need to be done to get those hard moves. Loved seeing you both go at it. Thanks Hannah and Loz for the video!
Nice, now we also get to meet new cool people on the channel! Getting stumped by the grade is always a healthy thing for me - it makes me focus on actually improving and trying new stuff. So These climbs look awesome and great to learn from. I guess if I ever go to London, I should check out the place!
I love your content! It's so refreshing to see two strong women just having a good time and not being too pressed about grades. Have you ever considered being a Lattice coach?
Thanks Nina, that’s so nice to hear. I’m not sure about coaching, but I would defiantly love to work with Lattice on some collaborations in the future. 😊✨
I really love them! Not sure they’re the best used as my indoor bouldering long session shoe, as they are a little stiff and aggressive - but not so much that I can’t wear them for a whole session! 😅
Great session. Love when even a V1 can be surprisingly tricky. Question, do you find it harder to climb at older gyms where the texture on the holds has worn down? Or are most gyms you've gone to good about replacing old holds? I tried an older gym this past weekend and all the holds were relatively smooth from wear and tear. Felt like it set me back a couple V-grades.
So many of their V1s were very technically challenging, which was really interesting! I definitely do find it harder when holds aren’t as new and grippy - I find that I overgrip and wear myself out loads in older gyms. Makes a big difference! 😊
Weird how the taller climber prefers dynamic moves...it's normally the other way around as the shorter reach needs dynamism to compensate for the lack of reach...
I’ve been trying much more to get out of my static ways! You’d think being fairly short, it was more natural for me to be dynamic but I really find it tough!
@@hannahmorrisbouldering once you practice more, it's going to feel way more efficient and you'll have better stamina! You should get the book "rock climbing technique"...helped me tons!
Thank you for having me. Really enjoying Rise and you were lovely company 🥰
Hope to see you being kind to your hips.

Agreed, really interesting boulders through the lower grades. Can’t take your eye of the ball for a second haha! 😊

Thank you very much Jess! Louis definitely taught me a lesson or two about self belief. Really appreciate you watching and commenting 😊😊

Thanks Fern. It was a really fun session together. 😊
So this is the V1 people are referring to when they say “V1 in my gym” 😂
Haha EXACTLY THAT!
Really enjoyed watching this video. Well done to both of you. Loved the 'sneak peak'!
The slap onto the sloper at 20:03 makes such a satisfying noise and puff of chalk.

Have a minor back injury right now. But watching this I can live vicariously through you guys till I am back at it again. (Pun fully intended)
Hope your back heals up quickly and you’re back climbing in no time! 🙌

@@henryt2229 Well here's to us both returning soon enough. Take care of yourself :)
What are the most common climbing based injuries? It seems the pros have suffered shoulder injuries over other body parts
You two are so supportive of each other! Love seeing the encouragement and throwing beta off of each other!
The best kind of sessions! 😊
Well done Hannah, you are getting better and better! Good effort on the green V4!

Lovely to meet you at the end of your session Hannah. You were as nice in person as you are in your videos.
Ahh, thank you very much! Great to meet you too!
love to see projects at all grades!
Yeah!!! Good job and good luck with your climbing journey!
Ste!
Thank you!
Need a Hannah Morris x Magnus Midtbo video. This one was really good!
The dream! Thank you 😊
So much fun to watch! Great effort
Thanks Jasper! Glad you liked it 🙌
Great video! Rise looks very cool with a very interesting way of grading climbs…😂😂
It was cool! Stiff grading for sure but true to outdoors I feel! 😀
Great climbing and video as always Hannah.
Every grade is someone's project.so good to see lower grades as well. Thanks.
Thanks Rhett! It was definitely good to get stuck in to some well set, interesting lower graded climbs. 🤗
I love your content! It's so refreshing to see two strong women just having a good time and not being too pressed about grades. Have you ever considered being a Lattice coach?

Awesome work girls and great setting Rise 👌
Thank you! It was brilliant setting 🤩
On the first V1 you could toehook the lower pinch (the one just above the volume) maybe?
what chalk bag is that yellow bag! I've been looking for a bag that can hold my larger brushes!!
Love to see you beauties climbing. Scrambling more problems, even unsolved, with faster editing would be nice as well. Keep on!
Looking strong Loz! 💪
i would love to get into climbing just hard to start anything without like getting handed something at first
Do it! Climbing is the best, and so rewarding!
Green looked a fun block.
How do you find the magos? I was looking for a little stiffer shoe
I really love them! Not sure they’re the best used as my indoor bouldering long session shoe, as they are a little stiff and aggressive - but not so much that I can’t wear them for a whole session! 😅

Lovely to hear! Hope you’re back heals up soon.
Dammn that cant be a V1😭😭 climbers in the Uk must be really strong !!! amazing content btw!!!
Felt tricky for the grade that’s for sure - glad you like the videos!
Nice rose move on the v3!
The first route looks difficult. Are you sure it is a V1? 😀 Both your climbing styles are so different specially on the 2nd green route.
I mean, I’d totally accept a higher grade for sure! 😀
That grade looks so tough!!
I wonder if being filmed makes you overthinking boulder reading, I think I would definitely
Probably makes me try and read into beta more!

I’m more dynamic to make up for my lack of flexibility and poor hip, it’s great learning from static climbers like Hannah and vice versa! :)
how often do you climb?
4 times a week usually, or every other day!
@@hannahmorrisbouldering awesome can’t wait for more of your content! Do you do anything specific for recovery?
awe
Thanks Hannah....u've already give me a great motivation in my climbing knowledge.keep make a great video....
This gym looks very wicked, innit?!
It’s great! Even has a paddling pool 🏊♀️
Omg amazing! :D
that black V1 is either a troll or that means my local gym's max grade is V3 xD
🥹🫣
"climb like a man" 😬 I think she meant climb with bad technique - anyone can be a flexible ballerina 🩰
In America the first v1 is easily a v4 😂
Hardest V1 I’ve found lately!
nah mate
Loz est très jolie! :)
You are soo beautiful
