Listen, I am not trying to be disrespectful, but I would really recommend getting a pair of pants that actually fit so you don't have to readjust your pants after every second step you take. As a fellow tall climber, I know this can be difficult to find climbing pants with long legs AND a narrow cut. But every time there is a video with you in it I cannot help but notice this.
@@rixdalerheptads1505 this happens to me when I climb in sweatpants. There aren't many pants that fit me well, but my dad uses Prana pants and they are great. We are also going to try 3rd Rock who makes climbing pants!
Thanks so much Madison. Changing from steep to flat angles always feels a little sketchy I find, so I was psyched to be able to turn my brain off a bit on the last move!
Great video Hannah, that pink one looked like a real fun challenge. It was super cool seeing the depth of you guys' process on how to climb that boulder, really relatable especially when you spend a minute thinking and discussing potential other betas, and then when you try it you just end up trying the exact same beta again lol
Thanks Ryan! It was a great boulder and a fun one to end the competition on. I sometimes second guess the ‘working out the beta’ sections - worry they might not be as engaging for people, but hopefully people find the process informative and helpful for their own climbing too. Story of my life on messing up my beta intentions too hehe.
Thank you Hannah for the advice about building confidence with falling off and hurting yourself while bouldering! The Climbing Hangar in Reading looks awesome and I can’t wait to see what video you do next. As always a great video and great climbing 😁
wow, hannah, you killed these tough problems-your strength and endurance are amazing! also, super fun watching a video with the two of you climbing the same problems. please do more of these videos with tall and small beta!
Cool seeing Nathan in a video (in front of the camera, climbing, that is) again. Fun video, never really thought about how different you two were physically and how that would translate in your climbing.
The doggo at 16:02, though. Such a rad gym. Thanks for showing us around. Good vid, ya'll. Dig your content. Cape Town only has 3 climbing gyms (very good, but limited) so its always cool sneaking a peak at the luxury of a first world setup.
I’m 5’6”, I learned from another short climber, who pulls super hard and has a tall boyfriend, “don’t watch tall beta.” Just don’t do it. It sets your brain up wrong.
@@hannahmorrisbouldering I'll make sure I've got the tape handy then. Going to be like that for a while too, Parthian Reading redid their bouldering section at the end of last year and some of those holds are still like sandpaper 🙈
Wow, your boyfriend is so tall! I am 4'2" my dad is 6'1" and I am going to do a competition for a yourube video also! But because I'm already better than him 😜 we are going to have a special twist to climbs, stay tuned 😉
Great Video, the pacing was on point. Just out of curiosity, may I ask which shoes Nathan is wearing and which size they are? I myself am quite tall and have pretty long, narrow feet and find it very difficult to find proper shoes in my size. Also does he happen to own other pairs of climbing shoes, he can recommend, if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I’ll double check but I believe they’re men’s La Sportiva SKwama in a UK 10. Nathan wears a couple of sizes smaller that his street shoe in them because they fit quite big. I wear the women’s version and find the same.
@@hannahmorrisbouldering Thank you for your reply! I'll definetely try them out, if my local shop has them in stock. I'm currently in Tenaya's Tarifa UK 12, I believe, but I do think there is some potential to downsize a little, so maybe I can fit them in UK 11, which is iirc the biggest size they produce them in.
Fair! I don’t consider myself that small, but in comparison with Nathan I do! It’s always interesting to see what creative beta options come out when you can’t reach the next hold.
It's funny, that the moment you expressed concern regarding putting chalk on the new holds, you dropped your bag and it spilled a bunch of chalk on the ground :D.
@Hannah Morris Bouldering thanks Hannah! There was some debate in a reddit post of someone else sending this problem, so was curious! Great content as usual :)
That is small though? Not for a woman but about 50% of the population is taller than her. Add to that the fact that most people who boulder are men and she's in like the bottom 20% of heights and at a real disadvantage on the majority of climbs
you realise only 1 percent of men are over 6'3'' probably only like .2 percent are 6'5'' no wonder there are so many single blokes with those expectations. sounds pretty shallow really
That looks like an awesome Gym! The grading system is interesting as the difficulty is based on the colour of the routes. Here in BC some gyms use a bracketed grading system while others use a v-scale. There are benefits to both, however I'm a big fan of the v-scale.
Pleasure to compete against the very best UA-camr ❤
May the best climber win… 😎🥺
Aww so cute

@@rixdalerheptads1505 they definitely want your advice bro. 🤔
Nathan is so quietly capable, but Hannah never stops pushing. Red leggings obviously provide extra power.
Haha I recommend! Trying to build my bouldering confidence with persistence. 😊😊
That's the problem with my climbing! No red leggings...
I was so excited to see you top the pink one at the end! Way to go!!
Thanks so much Madison. Changing from steep to flat angles always feels a little sketchy I find, so I was psyched to be able to turn my brain off a bit on the last move!
Watching you figure out boulder 2 in real-time and watching you stick with it was SO cool.
Glad you enjoyed it. I was so happy to stick the move! 😅
I love seeing Hannah and Nathan interact. It’s just nice! 😊

As a 6’7” climber, it’s so great to see a properly tall person in one of these videos. So tired of 5’11” “tall” climbers. 😂

You're so welcome! Thanks for the comment and for watching the videos ❤

That pink one looked like such a battle! So impressive. Love seeing your progress - gives me hope for myself haha
Thank you! It was a bit of a battle, really psyched to have managed it on the last go. Last go best go 😅
Cool seeing Nathan in a video (in front of the camera, climbing, that is) again. Fun video, never really thought about how different you two were physically and how that would translate in your climbing.
It’s always funny when we discuss beta ideas together and they’re wildly different. Thanks for watching!
Going here this morning - I'M SO EXCITED
Have an amazing time. It’s a great new gym! 🥳
@@hannahmorrisbouldering thank you! It looks amazing - I'm glad you enjoyed it
Can't wait to try out these blocks tomorrow
You’re in for a treat! 🤩
Love the amount of videos! Good job on the last block Hannah and it's good to see Nathan in the video
Glad to hear it! It was great to film with Nathan, feels rare we’re both climbing together! 😊
The doggo at 16:02, though.

A gym dog makes any gym 50% better! Glad to hear you like the videos. Would love to one day visit South Africa to climb! ☺️
That red one looks so fun! Unfortunately not in the UK so I can't try this gym 😢
Ah no! I’ll have to post more Hangar videos so you can climb at their centres vicariously! 😎👀
The song that's playing is Through You by Andrew Judah!
I’m 5’6”, I learned from another short climber, who pulls super hard and has a tall boyfriend, “don’t watch tall beta.” Just don’t do it. It sets your brain up wrong.
Something to it I think. I’m forever getting confused by Nathan’s beta 🥴
Looks like lots of challenging and fun boulders. Wish I lived in that area!
so fun to watch! also, looking strong in the thumbnail 💪
Thank you! It was such a fun session. 😅
Having seen a short from Josh from here I just knew there would be more coming from other YT'ers. Really excited to climb here, how was it?
Mega! So much fun - go with lots of skin though. Brand new holds 😎😎
@@hannahmorrisbouldering I'll make sure I've got the tape handy then. Going to be like that for a while too, Parthian Reading redid their bouldering section at the end of last year and some of those holds are still like sandpaper 🙈
Great video as always Hannah. Nice to see you two climbing together. Some tuff looking problems there.
Thank you! It’s always fun when we have the time to climb together for a video.
Love seeing Nathan and his really cool pants in this video.
Wish he'd pull up em up though
Wow, your boyfriend is so tall! I am 4'2" my dad is 6'1" and I am going to do a competition for a yourube video also! But because I'm already better than him 😜 we are going to have a special twist to climbs, stay tuned 😉
Ooh that sounds exciting…that’s a really fun height difference to see the comparison for!

Wow that rounded red one looks so hard and that pink one though. Hearing Nathan say “Hannah” I keep on saying “yes?” 😂
I’m 4’10 and anyone that is above 5 is already tall for me 😅. Thank goodness I am creative when climbing. Otherwise I will just be frustrated.

Boulder brighton!
Would've liked to see how Hannah got to the cimp side pull on the red slab climb as that's a much harder move for shorter climbers.
Heading back down to TCH this month so hopefully Ill be able to get it as a reel :)
Aaah excited for this, opened yt to do some flexibility work 🤦🏼♀️ that’s that
Got my shirt to Austria! Excited to wear it in Innsbruck tomorrow!!
Hehehe whoops! Go good to hear that. Hope you love it 😊
Watching tall people beta and thinking "what? you can just reach that?" 😂
Haha! Makes me laugh how much different the wall heights look when Nathan is climbing vs when I’m climbing!
I live for those "opportunities" haha
the only downside with a new place is that every hold is new, so the skin on my fingers suffer a little extra haha!
Haha yep! Skin was definitely feeling it afterwards.
What is Nathan's and Hannah's wingspans?
I’m -1 and I’m not sure what Nathan is, I’ll have to check!
5ft3 dude here - super short always an issue on some routes
We crush sit starts and contortion moves though! 🥹
@@hannahmorrisbouldering haha yeah for sure - sit starts - soooo easy for us short arses ;D
Spooky I just saw your spitting image going into ASDA Aintree as I was coming out 😲
Hah that’s funny. Wasn’t me, unless there’s been a glitch in the matrix. 😊
18:33 is that Josh in the back? :D
Yep!
Damn that’s some fast editing 💨
When you have a deadline, but no video… 🫠
@@hannahmorrisbouldering #youtuberlife
great job hannah...
Thank you!
@@hannahmorrisbouldering thank u too for inspiring us,with ur videos.
🤟
Did you title change from boyfriend girlfriend climbing comp?
I did. Testing out a few options to see which people prefer.
Hey Hannah, how would you grade that second problem (red one)?
I would say maybe V4ish. It suited me quiet well but I can see that the top would be quite crimpy. :)
@Hannah Morris Bouldering thanks Hannah! There was some debate in a reddit post of someone else sending this problem, so was curious! Great content as usual :)
@@implausibleduck would you link the reddit thread. Would like to see people's views on it :)
Their names are almost the same with the letters rearranged.

Love the video! Where are your leggings from?!😍
you are not small... you have the average female height... I am 5'1 basically forced to do dynamic my whole life and its frustrating
That is small though? Not for a woman but about 50% of the population is taller than her. Add to that the fact that most people who boulder are men and she's in like the bottom 20% of heights and at a real disadvantage on the majority of climbs
how tall is nathan?
He’s 6’5! 🙃
Nathan is the guy all the women on Bumble are looking for. 6'5" is the ideal male height IMO.
I've met them both twice, and I'm 6'1" but still didn't appreciate the height different.
you realise only 1 percent of men are over 6'3'' probably only like .2 percent are 6'5'' no wonder there are so many single blokes with those expectations. sounds pretty shallow really

Omg i swear there more chatting than climbing. This lady talks to much. Less talking and more climbing plz.
