Adam and Alex posting videos about wooden holds at exactly the same time (like even to the minute) is a crazy coincidence...
The universe is trying to tell us something...
that would be called a paid marketing campaign
I don’t know it’s two different hold companies. Who’s paying for the campaign? Wood distributors lol?
Big Wood

As an english subscriber I appreciate you guys so much speaking in english. Its dope to see the antics yall are getting up to! Also being able to see world class climbers project in real time on youtube is wild!!!
the setting with max and chris commenting is just good😂
Releasing a video at the same time as Ondra with wooden holds but your video is 100 times better. Way more authentic
Albo Jakob Schubert posting at the same hour! :D
"Max! What is going on?"
"We have new holz"
My gym has been setting routes, lead and top, and boulders w wooden holds I make. I love climbing on them. Beastmaker makes some of the nicest wood holds in the industry.
I've been dreaming about a wooden sport climb. Love wood holds, I hope more setters do this in future.
Im glad to see the consistency with the „no foot on Wood“ rule
First a wooden boulder at la sportiva legends only, now a wooden route at the legends Germans only 🔥
Great vid as always ! You emanate a lot of positivity and it's just so good. Life could indeed be worser without it. Thanks to the 3 Musketeers
I would love to see wooden holds in comps
We would love that too!
This is what the climbing world needed most and I‘m not even kidding
I really enjoyed your new video. Also, the new climbing gym looks amazing. Obviously way too hard for me but amazing nevertheless. Looking forward for your next video, Alex. And, most importantly, keep the good vibes alive! Cheers!
I recently put up a lot of wooden holds on my home wall for winter training. If anyone else is thinking about doing the same, it's not difficult to make your own. If you live in an area that has a lot of climbing, you'll probably be able to find some local businesses that sell them. Otherwise, Metolius wooden holds are relatively cheap and sold by retailers. On the other hand, Beastmaker wooden holds are VERY, VERY expensive. They do have nice metal inserts to prevent the screw from digging too deep, but it doesn't justify the crazy markup.
Great video guys, love the wooden holds. Your climbing gym is coming along nicely. Thanks for the upload
One of the coolest gym videos ive seen in a while.
Es macht einfach gute Laune euch zuzuschauen 😊.
Such nice holds! Beastmaker kills it!
Cool vibes in this video! Love the style :)
9:16 'see this bucket? Its a bucket.'
NOOOOO Where is the link for Chris' yoga classes!? 😭
wow that route looks gruesome, sick send!
those holds are beautiful!
These holds look amazingggg! I love wood so much more than plastic, which just destroys the skin
I have a lot of beastmaker holds on my home wall. I'm glad I bought them years ago before the hype, considering how expensive they are nowadays😅what a crazy, but cool idea, to put them on a route!
You guys have top level banter hahaha
Great setting
Cool video!
Make more of these routes!!
That Explorer II 🥰
Nice Rolex Explorer!
🎉🎉🎉
great
I like to think the Universe is big enough that on some distant galaxy, Malexander Egos has already claimed the "Universe First" wooden sport route
💯💪🏻
sehr cool
One of our local setters makes his own wooden holds and has been setting sport routes with them at our gym for a few years now.
And do you use the wooden holds for foot holds too?
@@alexandermegos8129 Yes, but they aren't very popular because of how slick they get.
4:02 Best part
Disqualify when they step on wood, that's a nice thought 😅
Nice Alex! Any thoughts on Jakob clash of the titans upgrade? You must have been in good shape!
good wood :)
How would conditions affect a wooden climb? I don't really know but my guess is that the window for good conditions would be narrower for wooden routes than plastic routes which could be a problem in a comp.
but at the same time, climbers may prefer it because of it being a bit easier on your skin. Not remotely close to being a pro climber, but they always talk about having to tape up for every non comp move they do in order to make sure they have skin left.
Other than wrecking the holds is there a reason for “no feet on wood”?
We got a wood route in our gym as well, but its only crimpedges all the way and they are greasy af
Nice Rolex Alex!
Present from my parents 🙏🏼
I can't find the link to the biceps curl classes. 😢
I have zero doubt that Alex sent this with no issues, but would loved to have watched this without the cuts in the video.
FIRST !!! ALEX I FUCKING LOVE YOU
the holds look very confortable
How much wood would a Wood Chuck chuck if a Wood Chuck could chuck wood
awesome. the only downside to wooden holds is; how would we distinguish the different climbs? most gyms have textured walls so tape doesnt work because it gets stuck and is pretty impossible to take off unless the walls are smooth. im not sure if dying wooden holds would be an option or not, how well would the color stay after dozens of powerwashes? i love the wooden hold idea either way
in the past we sometimes used thumb tacks in combination with (laminated) pieces of paper in different colors or with different symbols on them to identify different routes on spraywalls. not an ideal solution but better than nothing I suppose
that is a good idea tbh. @@Wonkhy98
what happens if you step on wooden holds? does the rubber of the climbing shoe make it slippery or something?
Hi Alex, this is interesting but what about to go to Spain and climb Sleeping lion? Could be your style right?..🙂
that black warm up climb that Chris did looks really nice, probably 8a
and why does he scream Passat when climbing ? new power scream ?
it's kind of a joke power scream that you hear people make sometimes. it's a reference to (i think) chris sharma who used to power scream like that for a while
nice .. pls establish wood and rock holds in the gyms
Why no foot on wood though? Does ist damage them?
A lot of rubber stays on wood, and after some time it makes this holds impossible to hold
Would wood!
And you get many more disqualifications 😅 hehe always positive
good for the fingers and good for the skin
What is the harness Alex and Chris are using?
petzl hirundos.
The draws on the Beastmaker route are all backwards.😉
Ich habe Max (+Partnerin und Hund) letzte Woche in bleau getroffen. Er war voellig von meiner Idee überzeugt: 5-10 kilterboards übereinander mit Bohrhaken (oder eine matte die automatisch hochfährt).
Btw wir wollten vielleicht bald mal bissle im Franken bouldern. Gibts da tips fuer gute Gebiete, wo man Tier und Mensch nicht so sehr stört?

Wait til he hears about climbing trees
Noob question, but why not feet on wood ? Great video as always !
I think because the rubber of the shoes ruin the wood
Not sure whether or not @lucaa4480 gave you the correct answer but I think it is correct. On the moon board, which has a mixture of wood and PU holds, the rule "no foot on wood" exists as well. And, if you ever had a moon board session before, you see why this rules makes sense. From a wood hold you just can't brush off the rubber residues like you could from a PU hold. Over time all the wood holds become black and filthy.
That is correct. It destroys the wooden holds and it gives us nightmares
@jonasjohajohanson9517 But Tensionboard is all wood and there doesn't seem to be a problem...
"The rock is wooden."
What watch is that alex is wearing?
What's the song when Alex is climbing?

Sach ma, total blöde Frage: Ist das nicht die alte Magnesia Halle?
Das ist sie ja!
❤❤❤
Supergeil! Freut mich total, dass hier wieder Leben reinkommt. Dort habe ich 2003 das Klettern angefangen. 😊 Für mich und sicher viele andere Nostalgie pur.
Why no foot on wood?
i've seen you wear the Oasis and was wondering how well they hold up. cause i hear the closure system can get worn through quite quickly and i don't really wanna spend 160 bucks on something that wont even last a year y'know? that the sole needs changing is obvious but that's an easy fix. it's just the rest of the durability that concerns me
thought there was no better place than here to ask lol
p.s: love the videos, always been a huge inspiration
they break if you yank them, get LVs if you have narrow feet so you won't have to tighten them so hard
Und da habt ihr einfach die neuen CruxSteine in Pink im Hintergrund an der Wand. So neidisch, die hätte ich auch gern
Universe first? Bro i'm pretty sure Klorg in the Ylderion sector got hold of these first.
i noticed how at 5:05 you had to cut the clip because you were about to lose your shit putting your fingers in and out that wooden pocket
😅
Haha beste Videos. Einfach Kletterer für Kletterer und mit Humor.
Sprecht mal bitte mehr deutsch. Der Mix ist so gut
I don't know how can Alex hold the woodies with tape
We see what you just did there just before the cut ;) 5:03
He is holding slopper in an impossible angle, that is even with endless power not possible. I believe he uses super glue, resin,...

@alexandermegos8129 - you are missing a crack feature in the gym. I can understand that most indoor sport climbers simple overlook that aspect of climbing but since you're an outdoorsy person I would assume that you do indeed know how to climb cracks (and not just the wideboyz).
Bitte sagt mir nicht er hat Nussschnecke mit Leberwurst gegessen
Alex you’re super cool but watch the other 2 weirdos is just a tourture
I enjoy them all :D
If you don’t like it, don’t watch. Just 3 friends having fun and sharing it with the world.
@@Vicitoriachisame
@@johannsoehngen3348 or I can watch it and share my opinion, right?
