Great coaching, really detailed in the explanations. Really liked how to get the most out of a hold. Thanks!

Great video! I always have to remind myself to read the boulder properly first. Also, analyze why something doesn't work for me instead of always trying the same move because you think you haven't executed it “well enough”.

Is that the Satisfactory Soundtrack in the beginning?

Super cool!

I use TB2 a lot and some Kilter and I think they are both easier than moon. I rarely climb on moon so that could be why it feels harder, but my experience personally is that Kilter gets hard (meaning I’m max projecting) for me around V9/10, TB2 gets hard around V8/9, and moon feels hard at V6 :)

I wish I could use the board, but I'm too weak to even start due to the overhang.

Pulling on those holds at 80 plus kg hurts and shreds my hands after just a few climbs. I have only done a few benchmark problems.

average climber climbs for fun, so i would say no, only if you enjoy it. sure, for people who wants to better themselfs everry year

"Should the average climber board climb?" Well I can't contribute to the answer because I board-climb as a below average climber

I use the moonboard whenever I can. I love it even though it kicks my ass

"maybe it's just a sandbag" such innocence XD

I don't moonboard much but when I do, I usually climb the same grades on the moonboard as I do in my gym. Which is why I feel like climbing gym sets or on the spray wall is more beneficial for me right now because the type of strength that moonboarding trains is not what is holding me back right now. So I'd say it really depends to what type of climber you are and if you have access to a spray wall thats going to be way more varied and generally better than the moonboard.

I boulder in a lead climbing gym so our boulder room is quite small. But we do have a 35 Degree Spray wall that i like to use. Most boulders are marked V3/V4 by the creator. Cant really believe it sometimes because damn there are some hard moves

I've only climbed on a moon board a couple times and found even the easiest benchmark climbs quite hard, since then I've changed gyms and have been using a kilter board a lot and find it much more beginner friendly and I like that you can change the angle on it

as a newer climber I actually started on the moonboard! I only started there because no one was there and the bouldering walls were very cramped the first day I climbed. I have very little experience in calisthenics so it was an extremely hard learning curve, and also figuring out how the board even works was very difficult, but it definitely Kickstart my climbing journey. I only started around 5 months ago and I'm already completing V5s/V6s. I've been projecting a few V7s but have yet to complete any. I still moonboard every week but I have been doing it less. I highly recommend training with the moonboard and sometimes even doing warmup on V2 or V3 courses on the moonboard

I spent an hour trying to get the app to let me sign in. It never worked. I tried multiple phones, uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times etc. Based on the reviews im not the only one with this problem. Thats why i dont use the moonboard.

I'd say if you manage to climb the easiest benchmarks on moonboard (v3-v4 depends on the set), you should include board climbing in your training. That's if you want to become stronger of course. Nowadays many indoor climbers enjoy mostly slabs and verticals, in that scenario such overhang training isn't probably the best way to use your time.

As an 8a/V11 boarder and pretty highly ranked (6th in the UK currently on the 2019 set), moonboard is hard as fuck, unless you climb on it pretty frequently it feels really hard, i almost say its its own style of climbing because even if i take a couple weeks off itll take a couple weeks of getting my arsed kicked till im sending project grades again. That being said I feel its one of the best ways to get mega strong, I climbed V10 in about a year and a half of climbing and I mostly attribute that to just persevering through the strugglefest, however unless you have a base level of finger strength its probably not a good idea to do super hard projects because its definitely one of the training styles which is most likely to end in injury.

Board climbing xan be beneficial, but it also has its own nuances that can be learned.

oh hey thats the gym i go to wth

Nice video, awesome editing - Keep going and don't let view counts discourage you! :) P.S.: Estimated grades would be nice to know imo..

Pro climber is taller, height=skill. Thanks.

my goat

wish i had grades, all we got is colors

You video quality is very good man. Keep it up im sure if you keep up with quality and editing like that and if you stay consistent your gonna make it big. All love from austria

THE SCORES ARE IN - Currently tied for 13th/53~ after round 1!

Nice work mate!

How do they verify your score? Is it just honor system?

How do you only have 150 subs? Excellent production quality and great editing. You'll go places, stick with it.

Impressive stuff dude 👏 The flash on 11 was nice! Fell off that move to the pocket toooo many times 😅

Is the background picture you used in the thumbnail from the Spot Denver?

Sorry to point it out, but I think there's a small error at the start of this video. The corrected version would be: "This is my friend Kaden, and he has balls of absolute steel"

U need to buy new shoes 😬

He is clearly Magnus! Didn’t even try to hide it smh

After a lot of videos with pro cllimbers and pro athletes trying climbing its very interesting to see a beginner. It shows, how HARD climbing really is and how much dedication and time it requires to master it

wow when i saw the video i definetly thought that you would have way more subs. This is great

v2 in my gym. (Jk)

good stuff!

Its fun to see new climbers find their limits when they're climbing for the first time. Especially if they have just that little bit of help to start with the right techniques. Fun video 👍

I cliked thinking this was like a million sub channle super undera

I wish I did this instead of trucks and four wheelers

Mate! Loved it, can’t wait for the next one 🔥

really

One word: Underrated

I've been climbing for a year now and im obsessed with lead outside climbing. I've onsighted three 6a+ routes so far on the lead, and this shit always scares me this same. Mental game is like insanely important when lead climbing, and the fear control is my biggest enemy, since i can like toprope 6c on wall and do some 6b lead inside with ease. Good fucking effort bro, insane since it was ur first lead ever. Impressive af

I have 2 words to say Mountain Bike

Simon casually doing my level with one less limb…

This was an awesome vid. both the video and climbing quality. the fact that you sent two 7s in different styles shows a great range. I definitely think you would be able to get an 8 if you projected!

Very true, I need to climb v7 by the end of this year.
