Ending it soon made the fall look worse that it was. The hips are definatley those of a new climber. It's nice that he is so fit starting out. When his technique improves he will shoot up in difficulty quickly to the next plateau. Finger strength. Good luck and keep it up.
This is so like me, I can do most over hang v4 easily since I can just power through, but when the holds are smaller and it's more about technique rather than just upper body strength I struggle to do v3s

the landing caught me off guard, thought his knees went inwards 😂
A good call to have newer climbers try slight overhang, it's very satisfying and can often be done without too much footwork
good lord his knees when he drops 😩 my shins hurt watching it
My heart dropped when he landed straight legged
he landed with his legs completely straight like a mad man
Nice climb nice climb last grab drop aaaand almost snaps both legs
His knees off the landing oh my god
That facediaper already was a prelude to that landing.
Impressive showing right up until the landing. He's lucky he didn't snap something in his knee
The drop we all felt...
Is that Stone Summit Atlanta? Could be literally any gym from how little was shown, but I'm throwing a guess out there.
You are correct
When I saw the straight leg drop I literally went “ooooo”
Perfect cut at the end. I’ll tune in next season to see what happened to his knees.
That landing hurts😬

Climbs like an intermediate. Lands like a psycho
Holy crap thought he was gonna break his knees with that landing 🫣
This is exactly how I climb lmfao, all send no beta :’)
Dude's definitely a framer
What’s a framer?
Great technique! Especially the landing, his femur crushing and breaking into his fibula absorbed all the impact!
V0-v1*
Yeah probably v1, definitly not v4, v4 is the easiest grade on moonboard, compare this to it 😅😂
The gym grades on range scales, this one was rated V2 to V4. Most definitely a V2, face transitions pitched back on jugs. The last move is heady.
@@MisterClimber yeah but v2 should be the upper end.
Even if this is your antistyle it's hardly a v2
