Obviously Louis is super strong, but his technique makes these boulder look like they don't require grip strenghth.
I climb at the same wall. I cap out pretty hard at 13! (the black one) Seeing him do it makes it look so easy
Glad I'm not crazy by thinking he's making these look so easy lmao
I'm sure he has great technique, but it's hard for me to look past the super strength lol, his whole body looks so relaxed while grabbing onto crappy holds
He's also super thin so very light.
18:40 Now look at that slow and deliberate setting of the foot... Incredible climbing, as always!
The switch to shorts @ 11:38 lmaoooo
That moment with the spy paper is so funny to watch. Great Video. Great entertainment!
I really liked this comp simulation format. On an unrelated note though. What's the name of the song around 23:00?
Is that a wild jake mason i see in the background as Louis is doing boulder 23?
Love that I keep appearing in the background of this video 😂
Watching these videos makes me want to head back to Yonder... Shame it's 3 1/2 hours away lol
Is that a bouldering bobat in the back at 17:54
My toxic trait is thinking I would be able to do some of these climbs bc Louis makes them look so easy
So I'm wondering what these would be in V grades? It's so hard to tell especially with someone like Louis making it look easy but...to me it looks like 1-10 is V2-V4, 11-20 is V5-V7, 21 is where V7/8 and harder starts? anyone have any input on that? I'm just trying to get an idea of how hard these are?
Yonder does post their grades on the griptonite app. They usually are in ascending order as Louis mentions in the video, even though in this reset they are a few exceptions to that (at least based on griptonite). But anyway grades are a bit of a ballpark game especially with those comp walls. Based on the app:
4-6 are V2
7-9 are V3
10-12 are V4
13, 14 and 16 are V5
15, 17 and 19 are V6.
18 and 20 are V7
21 and 22 are V8
23 is V9
I haven't tried any of the harder climbs, but I can attest number 13 is very hard, that's when those climbs get proper hard for me.
Having tried the boulders I'd say you're actually pretty spot on with your guesses. 21 is around v7/8, 22 is around v8/9 and 23 is v9ish and the easier problems are as you stated.
@@OrestisTsapogas oh cool, thanks for this
electro swing?? have some class
18:40 you know, sometimes when Louis climbs, I can't tell if I am watching a slow-mo or at normal speed. I aspire to that kind of composure to spend that much time to get the feet exactly where they need to be.
I'm having an English speaking exam tomorrow so I'm only allowed to watch British climbers today. Enjoy the comp!
20:28 You're in the final of our hearts man! 😀
His moves are so smooth, it's nice to watch. Well done💪
11:39 you ever dino so hard your pants change into shorts
the lady who walks in at 0:26.... i believe that's alot of us after failing on our project yet again. ALLEZ!
also, wondering how tall louis is? just curious and to gauge where id reach on these boulders.
He's about 5'7 but has an ape index of like... +4/5 if i remember correctly (might be wrong, but it's deffo high). That's why he looks about 6 foot in his videos and has the reach of someone who is, lol
@@MinzClimbs omfg , i have aswell like that but less , 5'25 in height and 5'65 in ape index , but he is another level
She's actually an assistant route setter at the gym and totally crushes most boulders there haha :)
@@AliceChengakaTheGreatCyanide thanks for the info!! just found it comical the way she flopped down haha. she probably just came down frm something really tough 🦾🦾🦾
17:40 Jake setting in the wild
My gym doesn't have a comp wall, so I live vicarously through Louis! (it's a neat tricky, that lets me climb harder!)
Best of wishes and a quick recovery to that imaginary finalist that had a horrible chalking-accident.
dude climbing 22 routes and has the day after a comp holy shit i would have to rest 4 days after that XD
13:32 the sound of someone pulling strong
Edit: no it was the drills behind him, but we all enjoy that sound when you're pulling so hard the boards creek
What an amazing wall, every problem looks so well set and the hold selection is 👌 👌 Great climbing too of course, never seen so much effortless flow!
Was getting some strong Hugh Grant vibes this video. Mainly the accent but genuinely your mannerisms a bit as well :p
Louis looking swole
Louis Parkinson and the mystery of the magically appearing second camera angle ;)
Great video, and thanks for down climbing very happy you're giving the right example!!
Oh nice, im going yonder for the first time tomorrow woo
Ohhh yeahhh daddyyyy ohhhh ahhh ohh papi ohhh
200/230 nice number to end on haha
Love watching your vids! Learnt a lot 🙌🏾
are thoise shoes the tarantulas? from la sportiva
Louis throwing his glasses off mid climbs is the same thing I do. Don't wanna scratch them!
you're gonna need to start putting the grade of the current boulder in the corner of the video because you make everything look effortless and I end up thinking I could do it no problem 😂
I hope you win tomorrow Louis. Meow!!!
awesome Louis :D
What’s the song at 09:30 called?
Great video buddy ;) keep it up
i liked the video
okay so can someone tell me what is the difference between those "Comp" boulders and the normal ones ?
Because in a previous video Louis said that "comp" boulders nowadays require a lot of dynamic moves jumps etc. and not all in this vid are dynamic and jumpy
I think he meant ifsc style boulders when he said comp boulders, rather than a small competition held by a local gym.
There's technically no difference , just different style of setting , I think usually comp style uses bigger/flashier holds/volumes, and like you said more acrobatic moves
Comp climbing generally refers to moves that aren't necessarily "difficult" but more "low percentage"
Basically, it's easy to have the *required* strength to do it, but even if you're strong enough there's a chance it doesn't stick, and the stronger you are just reduces that chance but its always a pretty decent chance you don't stick it
And like a commenter above said, generally when people are talking about comp style they mean world cup/IFSC, not necessarily any climbing comp as gyms will have their own setting team that might not like the IFSC style
I really doubt that with that many flashes you wouldnt make finals though
Which shoes are those you are using?
theory womens
Can’t believe Milo sold Louis down the river, sad to see
Any tips for holding onto long pinches other than pure grip strength?
11:38 did Louis just swapped some pants there?
11:40 Louis was wearing shorts....
What shoes is he wearing?
nice to watch. thanks
Beautiful climbing gym
Great climbs, thanks
love watching you climb!!!!!!
Good show Louis!
Shame there’s so much music over everything, makes it unwatchable
