If, like me, you watch professional competition climbers jumping around on comp style boulders and think, “that must be V1million”, you might be a little further off the mark than you think.
The interesting think about competition bouldering is that the dynamic and fast paced boulders we see on our screens are so movement, timing and positioning dependent, there might be a decent argument for not really being able to grade them using the generic climbing grades at all.
Grades aside, they’re still extremely tricky, as my guest today knows only too well. Ross is a professional climber and comp athlete from the USA, and today we’re recreating a World Cup replica, digging into what gives comp climbing it’s difficulty and asking, what could it look like if you could scale comp boulders to an intermediate climber?

Bit of a saga with this weeks upload, which is why it's going up at a funny time. Drop a comment below to help me reacquaint myself with the YT powers. :)
Ross really does have a way with words when breaking down the movement needed. My local gym also had some comp boulders with additional holds to scale down the difficulty. It definitely feels like a different beast when compared to non-comp boulders.
I REALLY like the idea of commercial sets adding in additional holds for climbers wanting to try the boulders in a scaled way. Comp boulders are certainly a different set of skills compared with more traditional boulders :)
Cool to see Ross on here! He competed at my local gym (North Mass Boulder), small world.
Super nice guy. He has a really cool UA-cam channel too 🙌
I also have a lot of different mental blocks on what moves I think I can’t make. That’s what’s so rewarding about climbing. When you overcome those blocks, it feels amazing. And you just keep progressing and getting better. It’s really just exposure therapy for me
Absolutely! Climbing is so much about taking yourself farther and farther away from where you feel comfortable and building up the confidence to commit! 🤩
Many underestimate the power of one’s mental when climbing, it can break or make your session. Thank you Hannah for the great video, you never fail to psyche me up, keep killing it!!
100%. I do often find that the first part of a session can really set the tone for the rest. If I start off in a negative headspace, it more often than not snowballs into a bad session. Mindset really changes direction for sure! 😅🙌
Lovely gym, lovely hosts, and lovely dynamic movement Morris 💃
HIPS is the word.
Love hearing Ross talk about movement! And again, Hannah putting out top quality climbing content. Bravo!
A master at work 😎
Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Ross is so impressive. So fluent and eloquent in his language. Really a joy to watch
And to add on, his ability to put you exactly in his thought process is superb. It’s then easy to visualize and internalize yourself, extensible to random climbs in my gym!
Such a great video. It’s so interesting how Ross is breaking down the Boulder problem.
Really glad you enjoyed it. 😎
That's such a cool concept ! Comp boulders look (and feel) really intimidating, having the option to scale it down to try the dynamic movements is super interesting ! Heard you at least twice refer to the warm up and I would be veryyy interested on warm up content ! ;)
We filmed a whole warm up especially catered towards comp style blocs. Ross had so much good information that it’s coming as a full standalone video soon 🥳🤩
@@hannahmorrisbouldering ooooh I can't wait to see that
yay!@@hannahmorrisbouldering
@@hannahmorrisbouldering Any news on the warmup video? would love to see that
Some really good advice regarding mindset/psychology. Amazing to compare your first two attempts (especially your body language) vs attempt leading to success (gogo 17:20!).
You're putting yourself down a bit and then really work hard pulling yourself up again. Thanks for sharing, it's inspiring :)
Good video Hannah thank you :) Ross sounded great at coaching!!! and of course you were awesome!!! The editing in your videos is top noch!! Thank you 😊
Thanks so much! Ross was a really great teacher and really helped me to unlock some dynamic moves that I didn’t think I’d be able to do 😎🤩
I was looking at that climb last week wondering why there were so many random looking additional holds. Now it makes more sense lol
Haha that’s funny! Hope you enjoyed the competition wall set. There were a lot of fun ones!
YAY GROTTO VIDEOS
always a treat to see awesome videos at a place I spend so much time at
cheers!
Glad you like them! We loved our visit to GROTTO 😆💫
Woo!! This is a great one to watch! Great rapport the two of you, and Ross is so eloquent and articulate breaking down those movements!!!!! LOVE THIS!
Really glad you liked it. I definitely learned a lot from Ross’ insights into movement! 🥹
such fun content! was stoked to see you and say hi at bouldering project in slc!!
Ahhh nice! Hope you had a good session. BP was a super cool gym ☺️😅
love seeing hannah at my home gym!
We loved our session there. Hopefully we'll be able to visit again soon :)
Relatable content. Useful to see this approach - learning step by step 👌🏽
Glad you liked it!
Cool video! I'm so intimidated by these kinds of moves too. You guys talked a lot about the "risky" warmup session you did beforehand, was there a video about that too?
Ross has so many good vids on his channel about movement, mindset, approach (with excellent editing and music). He's got major talent for coaching on top of his outrageous climbing skillz!
Too talented if you ask me! 😅 Totally agree, he was a joy to climb with and watch climb. Super skilled at what he does and a great teacher.
@@hannahmorrisbouldering yeah it's a little unfair, honestly! 😅 Really enjoyed this video, as usual 🤩
Great video. Totally relatable and helpful. Thank you for once again posting an extremely useful video. P.S. Seems that everyone at my local climbing gym loves your content❤
Glad it was helpful! That's really nice to hear too :)
DUDE this is a sick crossover
Hope you enjoy 💪
asdfjkl; thats my gym!!! Crazy how i got into climbing by watching you vids started here at my local gym then you pop up in it!
Ahhhhh cool local gym to have! Really enjoyed our session there. Thanks so much for following along. 🤗
Oh this is the guy who speed up his warm up footage to make it looks like a exorcism videotape
Love ross
It was fun to learn from him, he's a great coach and climber :)
Hey slightly unrelated question but where did you get your shorts and top you were climbing in
They’re both Lululemon. I keep an eye on vinted for Lululemon shorts like it’s my full time job haha🥹
idk if u fixed ur copyright issues or not because i got an ad so i hope uve sorted it out and are earning from this vid 👍
Nope! Still waiting for a music claim, even though I have the licence but it’s all good. Hopefully it doesn’t stay that way for too long 😵💫
I'm curious what grade of a climber does Hannah consider herself?
I’ve climbed a handful of V6 boulders outside, maxed out at V7 and I’ve climbed V8s indoors, but it really depends on the gym. I’d say I’m a V5/6 climber.
For the YT powers!
🫶
At about 18" you did the move kind of "static" 😊at least it wasn't that big jump at all
Any way to make something static! 🫣
Why do you consider yourself an average climber when you’ve been climbing just as long if not longer than Ross has.
I climb at an average grade, and not at a pro level like Ross. ☺️
Premium content❤
Thank you! 💫🤩
