Loads of videos show that walking away from the camera in solo videos and I always think how ridiculous it is because they need to walk back for the camera 🤣
Not sure if you're looking for video ideas, so ignore this if not, but I was wondering if you could make a video about how to be a good spotter for outdoor bouldering? Could also include best ways to place pads on uneven terrain and when to move pads while the climber is moving.
I love love love watching you Louis! Just such a fun and realistic commentary, really a pure human expressions of the struggle. Stay pure hearted and motivated❣️greetings from Slovenia
This was awesome. I can relate to getting impatient and not remembering to climb smarter not harder. REST is a great word, but hard to practice when the excitement and adrenaline is going, but take time to slow down. This is proof that it DOES work.
That video was hilarious! Thank you Louis for being so real and congrats for the send! I feel like staying hyped on a climb even when you are on your own is so pure.
Awesome to see some outdoor bouldering! It's slapping season, good boulder choice, working on a similar compression roof project! Not sending as fast though!! I find it interesting that the rock with the jug on the left is in, usually when it's not part of the same rock it's out. What are the rules over there, is it specifically mentioned in the guidebook that it's in? Not questioning your send, just wondering as a beginner/intermediate outdoor boulderer!
Thanks for taking us along your solo trip. Glad the boulder didn't give y o u a brush-off ;) So instead you could send it and t h e n brush it off yourself ;)
Great bloc, considered a peak classic this and the stand start alone is one of the hardest 7A/V6s in the peak to boot. I had to tie a sock to my left wrist because the span means your left hand is essentially at a 90 degree angle against the rock. Always fun seeing people work this one out, especially when the top gets underestimated 😂
@@danicoman961 tying a sock to my wrist meant the rock didn’t cut into my wrist, you can hear Louis complaining about the same thing in the video, expect my span is a lot smaller meaning my wrist rubs against the edge of the rock even more
I always love the positive energy when tackling the hard problems. I'm a beginner and I'm starting to send V3s at my local gym because I try to keep the same mindset as Louis. Awesome video and big up for brushing the boulder. Bet the next person to project this boulder will love that!
is there a recommendation for how to start climbing outside on your own? i don‘t have anyone to join me and have tried for a year to find someone to join me, but it never works put..
Funny how scared I was to be under or beside large rocks or boulders like this as a kid thinking it would crush me.. Now I see people climbing all over them.
Nice send! I’ve never climbed outdoors but have been wondering, what happens if you go to a boulder like this and flash it? Do you just pack up and leave if there aren’t any other boulders around? Seems like a long way to go for such a short challenge if so!
There are some variations along the left side of the block, 2 I think, all similar grades but quite different. Still, only a short walk away is The Boss 8B/+(ish), AN more to do not too much further.. (Burbage South is very close)
There is something intangible in Louis that makes him so damn likeable
I think it's quite tangible. His friendliness and enthusiasm levels are >9000 and his threat level is 0.
ya makes we wonder why people are subscribed to him just to dislike his videos...
Look at 3:40. Even the way he talks about literally being in pain is positive sounding.
He is simply adorable - especially at 1:10 when he walks back to get the camera he left. He's kind of the human version of a puppy.

Spelunky
@@adityakrishna4359 yes it's an awesome game 🤣👍
The show Survivorman with Les Stroud was famous for this
@@adityakrishna4359 I love spelunky
@@ryanfortner4000 it's a masterpiece 😁👍
Thank you for spreading good climbing ethics by brushing the holds after you do the boulder and showing it in the video!
Important to show. Go Louis.
Comment I think I can speak for everyone when I say we need more outdoor climbing video from Louis and the catalyst team great video!!!

I feel the haphazard and hyperactive nature of this video edit perfectly reflects Louis' personality.
I've watched a friend attempt this boulder on multiple occasions and I can't fathom how it's even possible. Louis made that look easy in the end! 💪👌
Very fun format this
Awesome video dude. The dubbing was great
Brilliant. Well done and thank you Louis.
Glad to see someone else having almost the exact same experience as me doing this boulder

Nice one Louis!
I always find it more interesting to watch a struggle (hopefully followed by a send!) than a straight flash.
That video was hilarious! Thank you Louis for being so real and congrats for the send! I feel like staying hyped on a climb even when you are on your own is so pure.
that was one of the best solo boulder videos I've ever seen. Louis has a great vibe (:
walking back to pick up the camera got me
Love to see someone including brushing away tick marks in a video. Also very glad to see some outdoor content from you!

Absolutely loved the close up shots of the moves! So impressive for a solo effort!!
Really appreciated the up close shot of the holds, definitely brings the boulder to life from a viewing perspective
patience is huge. Every time I feel like I have a bad session, it's usually because I get over-eager and impatient, and tire myself out prematurely.
Loved the video with the close up shots. Thanks Louis!
More outdoor content (when possible)! Loved watching the fight Louie, I've had many solo sessions at the local crag, good times :)
Amazing video Louis! I love how thoughtful you were with those detail shots!
The close up shots were very impressive considering you were there solo!!
these outdoor videos are nice
Really cool video. Fun and realistic approach to bouldering. That's what it's all about! Plus the boulder looks very cool! Keep it up!

Such a sick vid. Patience is hard..ha. Good insights!
Had you considered going up it from the other side 😉

One of the biggest 7A sandbags in the Peak! ;)
Sorry for my ignorance here, what’s the purpose of the sock in that situation?

Mega solo adventure! Loved this video, it looked like the struggle was real :D
Why not drop the location of the boulder in the video description?

It’s not “positive energy” it’s just having fun, curiosity and ambition. Pretty much all people have it when it comes to things they enjoy doing.
@@Mike-oz4cv yes but some people could still be held back by perfectionism or fear with the things they enjoy doing
Will we get another video of you trying the Ace? Grit season is upon us now!
wow, are those earclips to keep your glasses tight onto your head?? How are these called? I need them in my life :D
Nice send
is there a recommendation for how to start climbing outside on your own? i don‘t have anyone to join me and have tried for a year to find someone to join me, but it never works put..
Shoes are la sportiva theory womens right? Are these even softer than the mens? Could you discuss the differences?
When you say 'rested for awhile' what are talking? 10-30 seconds? (feeling like ages ;))
If the bouldering thing stops working you should become a voice actor. I barely noticed the dubbing!
Funny how scared I was to be under or beside large rocks or boulders like this as a kid thinking it would crush me.. Now I see people climbing all over them.
More of a buzz on your tod when you get up something hard with minimum pads.
Is it just me or did this feel like a kids tv show
loool, you completely missed that you can just step around the rock and walk up very easily from the other side!
What a goof!

Please try and get Jyoti Raj on your channel it would be awesome to see him climb on indoor bouldering 🙏
Damn annoying top outs! The bane of my bouldering existence haha
