Indoor Rock Climbing V2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2020
- This is a project at climb central Singapore.
It is graded as 3 pie, which could be V2-V4. It’s a V2 for me, coz it’s the easiest 3 pie in the whole gym.
Through this project, I learned a very important lesson about heel hook.

This is one of those times where i think the route is actually harder then what is claimed.
I was thinking the same thing, this could make V3 easy in most gyms
@@ShannonMcCraryH yeah agree this looks like a V3 to me
Bruh the v2s in my gym are harder than this
I could def see this being about V2-V3 simply because of the smaller holds above the start holds
I've never seen a V2 require a heel hook haha
My local gym has v1 with heel hooks 😳
V2 should already required to use of heel hook
Yeah my gym has a V2 with a very obvious heel hook, which you then have to pull up into a split position to the other foot hold, also it’s on a slightly overhung corner. Large size holds though, just odd body positioning. After figuring it out it’s not too hard though, first attempts were difficult though.
I’d probably put this one as a low V3 in my gym. I’m a newer climber but I’ve noticed all gyms seem to be widely varied on Boulder grading, and not really comparable to outdoor grades.
I’d say it’s more important that your gym is consistent with their own grading, than necessarily comparable to other places.
There is a V1 at my gym that needs a heel hook if ur smaller
Definitely didn't REQUIRE it,
A heel hook was just what tjis climber used
This agitates my love for my gym. We would probably grade this a v3+ (the smear to high foot to heel hook would stump a lot). Soft grading doesn't help anybody. Great send!
I found that grading is a very subjective thing. So that’s why we try to focus less on the grading itself but more to use it as a reference to track our progress. :)
@@elinaliu Agreed. I like gyms that do arbitrary grades. 1-10, or coloured tags. You can track your progress and you know what to expect from a climb, but it doesn't warp people's expectorations of how outdoor grades feel.
This route looks fairly easy to just climb and smear, no heel hook required. All arms
@@rohan1_ yesssss this definitely. My gym has them grouped like v0-soft v3s, harder v3s-soft v6s, v6-v9, and then v9 and above. You can find out the route grades, but I like to only check them after I've finished them or gotten close. It pushes me to try some of the stuff out of my comfort zone, and I think I've learned a lot from just attempting climbs that I don't really have a chance of actually totally finishing yet
@@amr1t_ I really don’t like the grouped grades because the jumps between them feel massive when compared to one v grade tbh
I saw a man post a video of him climbing a v4, and the comments were trashing on him for posting it. Great to see this positivity instead of hate.
Awesome comeback! Great job, keep it up!
Finally a gym got it right ☺️ good job!
Lovely movement at the bottom of that problem. Great setting. A lot of centres don't encourage smearing like that. 👍
great boulderproblem!💪
Nice job on the send! Good video!
Great job! The comments made me smile too :)
Looks like a stout v2. Good job
some of the people that post their climbs here would dare to call it something like "V7 sender" or some shit, so it's great to see some humility and honesty around in the community
Nice one!
Easy v5 in some gym.
10/10
Not easy! Well done
Thats harder than V2 clearly
its sandbagged fs but using other holds to work your foot up is kind of a dab imo
If the problem ended at the second to last hold I’d call this a V2, but having a climber stand up to that last hold probably pushes this into V3 territory. Regardless, I’m So tired of gyms grading ridiculously high to have bad climbers feel good about themselves (I suppose it makes sense from a business standpoint but still, climbing gyms should be run by people passionate about climbing). Major props to your gym for setting V2/3s as what they should be, very physically demanding if you don’t have good technique, but if you crack the beta it should feel solid and flow nicely.
I might have been overestimating my ability based on the inflated ratings of my gym.
V4 at my gym
Meanwhile she dabs on literally every other color
Do i need to buy shoes, helmets, harnesses, ropes, etc... on my own or will the gym provide those for me?
It’s pretty standard for the gym to have rental shoes and harness for the beginners. Ropes will be provided by the gym if you are not doing lead climbing (which is an advanced climbing category), and helmet is not required when doing indoor (gym) climbing.
V3 in my gym haha
iam new to climbin but isnt v2 almost the lowest???? that looks undoable for me atm .. impressive !
???
@@graison3813 odd flex
Thats a pretty clever v2! Would be a V2+ at my gym
Agree it's a v2+ or v3
@@vincent.wlynto lmfao this is ridiculous. its a gym climb, there is zero need to split hairs like this
Genuinely, this looks like a soft V2/V1 in my gym, and it frustrates me every day because we both know this ain't a typical V2/V1. But congrats on the send
This looks like a V0 for toddler at my gym :p /s
Would definitely be a V3 at my gym, which says a lot about my gym..
no, it doesn't, it says a lot about singapore. singapore, with an area of only 710 square km, has over 15 climbing gyms. they usually like to build boulders like they were actually outdoor problems, and the standard of climber is much higher than in any other country. So this doesn't say anything about your gym. also, why do you care at all? just climb what you think is fun! IF IT'S NOT FUN, WHY BOTHER?
she says in the description it was in v2-v4 category so it might as well has been, depends on each individual and how well the problem fits your attributes
V2 btw
Lots of energy spent on repositioning. Commit and don't test each placement. Work on accuracy.
V3?
That's a pretty stiff v2 lol
Definitely not a V2
v3/4 at my gym
My condolences bro...
Id say its like a v3
V2????? Typo? These gyms need to get there sh!it in order. I wanna speak to a manager ASAP
Defo not a V2 at least a v3/4.
I think this is V2+ to V3 defo not V4
-1v in my gym
V0 for 3 years old at my gym, cannot even attempt this kind of route in my gym if you are > 3 years old... /s
A couple things
you are making it way harder than it needs to be, and you shouldn't have to heel hook on v0-v4's.
So v0-v4 have to be uninspired left-right moves? Also judging on people who say they never have to heel hook on v2's, you either have 3 hands or i would climb v8's in your gym. And i defintely wouldnt in europe
Agreed, they made that climb exponentially harder than they needed. There was 0 necessity for a heel hook. Also seeing people full crimp on a slabby V2 scares me but w/e not my tendons.
