      He did some of that when he was younger. He helped bolt and open routes in Flatanger. He also found and got the FA on one of the harder boulders in Europe at one time. UA-cam wasn’t something he did in those days. It wasn’t a huge platform anyway at that point.
      He did that kinda stuff, and we didn’t get to see that process. Kinda sucks. He’s probably past those days now.

    The sincere, interview-type takes between climbing are well done... style-wise, content-wise, and tone... Keeps it charmingly personal, and more story-like, particularly when couched in the quiet, effortful stretches of climbing, the sound of the climber's breathing and details from the beautiful b-roll **chef's kiss** Quite engaging!! Glad the algorithm suggested this channel. Bravo.

    From Canada and, I must say, much of the landscape is familiar to some areas here in the mid area of Ontario. I’m from the far North where it’s much flatter and mostly evergreens and ‘bog’ and winter is almost 10 months of the year! My niece visited twice after her Norwegian boyfriend Einar returned home (he spent a semester at her university when they were both undergrads and they both stayed with us for the summer before he returned home). She loved the country, the people and definitely saw parallels with Northern Canada.

    As someone who's tried deep water solo for the first time this summer in Mallorca, 16m-20m is seriously scary. I was already scared shitless on anything that went to 10m or higher... having really hard moves on >14m sounds so damn sketchy to me, I took a few 8m falls and those already weren't very pleasant if I didn't land perfectly.
    Try deep water solo on the heights that I did, and you'll probably find this video even crazier / more impressive than you already do.
