I want to give huge thank you to Tomoa, Meichi and Akiyo for hosting me in their gym. If you want to help me out with that, then head over to their TH-cam channel and give them a subscription.
In hindsight I wish I would've also gotten more of Akiyo in this episode, but luckily you can find more of her on their channel! All three of them were incredibly kind and fun to climb with, I'm very grateful for this session.
Also, thank you to The North Face for sponsoring this episode, if you want a chance to win the free duffle bag then here's the form ▶︎ forms.gle/bgyUhQEDACAnpBH96
Lastly, I want to give another thank you to Naoto for helping us with translations! He was a great guy, and if you want to give him a follow on instagram here it is: instagram.com/naoto13.climbing_/
You'll simply have to go back and make a video with just Akiyo! Wouldn't hear any complaints from us haha
Kudos for pointing it out Emil! It always feels a bit off when Akiyo hangs out in background while the boys do the talking - When she's actually the most successful climber in the room by such a huge margin, it's not even funny :D
@@Hopesfallout I totally agree, falls on me and how I planned the video. Would love to make a video focusing on Akiyo in the future!
Crazy how Tomoa has so much control that he can immediately do exactly what Emil is doing wrong to show him!
You should watch his videos at TAMY Climbing... you can learn a lot there.
.
If I'm not wrong, Tomoa came from a gymnastics background. Really does show in the way he moves so fluidly in dynamic and co-ordi boulders!
@wsxgfhccr I’m not sure it has anything to do with his background in gymnastics. Movement patterns and proprioception related to gymnastics is tied with predictable and repeatable patterns. This is very different from climbing where there is constant variation and you need to adapt on the fly, especially for comps. For instance gymnasts usually don’t perform well on ninja warrior type obstacle courses whereas people coming from Parkour or even skating often perform better.
Hey that was also Matsura Ryo! He's part of the national setting team and was recently in Australia for a stint of 6mo setting with my local gym. Was an absolute privilege to have someone of his caliber involved in our local scene down under.
Hey which gym was this?
If I'm right in thinking it was 9D Alexandria
He was with Boulder Lab in Melb
@@RileyCrusher Wish he came to Urban Climb in Collingwood
@@RileyCrusher can i please ask when and which boulder lab please? thank you!
Speaking about anime with the Narasaki brothers... that's a climbing achievement right there
No one gonna mention how crazy it is that Tomoa was doing a triple bodyweight deadlift just to train for speed climbing?!?
Mind blowing
Right? 396 when it seems like deadlifting isn’t really part of their regular training (or only was for a short while) seems insane
3:10 I will now forever see Tomoa as the real life Luffy
Narasakis : All right, let's go lead climb now. Lowest grade set is 8b+.
Emil : _nervous chuckling_
Hooly shit, love that Tomoa is entering the colaboration circle on youtube. Congrats on this insane Colab!
I can't wait to see Tomoa try Burden!!
This is so cool! What a great opportunity, stoked you got to climb with them
Thanks mate, so was I haha!
The only sport that cheers your opponents 😊
No hangboard gang gets validated 😁
where tf do I buy a spraywall tho
@@ssize_t True like thats the thing. Unless you have a really good spray wall or tension board to train on, I think hangboard training is essential for fingers.
@@ssize_tyou can build one. Moon/tension/kilter boards aren't a bad replacement either.
people are all different, finger training is good for certain people for sure
Bosi does hangboard every day ;)
Really cool video! TAMY climbing has a very playful/encouraging mood on their channel and I feel like it was brought out in your video. Loved that you asked some non-climbing related questions and great to see the comparison between Meichi and your climbing style - feel like I learn the most in the gym that way. Keep up the videos man, they just keep getting better! (Also nice job to Cordi on the sick angles for some of the comp boulders)
Tomoa has some excellent videos on improving your dynos. I love that the dyno master married the static master. Akiyo was a major inspiration for me when I first started climbing.
Miss seeing Akiyo compete :(
Definitely me too!
Same! I'm glad she's enjoying her well earned retirement but damn do I miss her style in comps.
Me toooo!
Haven't even seen it but already gave it a like. Huge collab!!! Amazing video
Yay! Akiyo in the house! Wish we can see more of Akiyo climbing as well! Great video BTW!
Something ive noticed in japanese climbers is that they rarely belittle themselves, which is something i find very common within European and American climbers.
Yeah I think we tend to express humbleness through self-deprecation in the west, and are too quick to take talking about one's own strengths as bragging. Maybe it's not ideal, but every culture has their standards.
@@PeterTeal77 I just think that it's generally a bad habit especially in climbing, Louis Parkinson from catalyst climbing explains it really well.
@@dylansmith3452what’s the video title, out of curiosity?
@@jwalker_25 I'm not sure, he brings it up across most of his coaching episodes though.
Wow, to see such great climbers in one video. What a dream it must've been to finally climb with Emil Abrahamson. These Japanese guys might be going places!
Love how your channel is growing. Great work!
this is fire, just being in the energy you all so beautifully created together
Such a good vibe in this video, was great to enjoy your session vicariously.
In Japanese culture, discipline is a key to their success. You can like it or not, it works.
Not for 100m sprint though
it mixes with a drive to be great as well, a desire to do and perfect the activity, that make it bearable/enjoyable for a person to grind that hard, I don't think it's all environmental/culture.
finally my two favourite climbing channels collab! been watching both of you for a couple years now 10/10 video
Always crazy to see just how strong the world's best are, even compared with beasts like Emil.
Good to see someone thinks the same as me and I’ve often wondered why competitors don’t use a battery vacuum rather than a brush!
Great video!
It’s so cool to have them on your channel!
3:00 Yeah One Piece! Tomoa is a man of great talent and great taste
I was legitimately just smiling this entire video goddamn it so wholesome
Tomoa, Meichi, Emil, thanks for a great video, helps a lot!
Also a 180kg deadlift for tomoas size is actually a big achievement. I am sure it was by no means a huge focus of his preparation so that goes to show the level of athlete tomoa is.
Such a crazy facility! Puts it into perspective how strong they really are!
Hi Emil! So cool that North Face is a sponsor!
seems like all the high level comp climbers only train spray wall primarily. Janja also almost exclusively climbs spray wall. Seems to be the key to good technique development and finger strength!
21:15 I’m so hyped when Emil stuck the landing!!!
🗽 I have learned so much from Tomoa.... THANK YOU Tomoa for that. 🙏
Great video thankyou. Really cool insight into the Japanese team training.
Loved this collab!
love the way you guys hit it off!
Perfect timing
Such a great vid!🔥
Amazing as always emil! Keep up the great content would love to see you in london but got work 😢
More Akiyo pleasee !! Great video but would love to see her climb moree !
Having done psicobloc, it’s SO FUN. The event is a massive climber party and is some of the best fun I’ve had.
Love the establishing shots at 0:00
Great vid! Me and my fellow board nerds would love to see you do one on the new 2024 Moonboard
Oh, I would love to see Tomoa try Burden of Dreams! Welcome to Finland! 🙏🏻
Why is noone talking with Akiyo in their videos? 😭 Magnus also mostly focused on Tomoa, but Akiyo is a legend herself and deserves the attention
See you in London!!
This vid came just in time for my office work🎉
Banging vid as always.
The way they move up the slab confidently and with momentum reminds me Johnny Dawes. They both seem really comfortable with the no-hands moves.
What a great collaboration! 😍
20:20 that's a crazy cool move!! Can't wait to replicate an easier version of it next time I'm on the spray wall.
Sick collab and also congrats on a major brand sponsorship??? That’s a huge deal!
Dude this tomoa is just insanely goooooddd
Awesome video!
Really nice video Emil!
tomoa saying "i am luffy" is so wholesome
Really interesting video.
Thank you 🎉
damn, Emil, getting North face as a sponsor! sick!
Meichi is a competition BEAST right now. Super on form!
insane collab
really great video
Can't wait to see Tomoa on Burden of Dreams!
Meichi with the air blower is funny
such a good video!
"あ~~~ナルトじゃん?"
*Epic shirt noticed*
TAMYとコラッブがどんどん増えるほど世界の幸せも増えます
Dude, from the title I thought you where climbing with the Stoltman brothers from Scotland. They're strongmen.
How cool is that!!!!! Maaaan let’s go
They're so weightless!
When the taller brother jumped off the Dyno boulder it's like he floated down. Super weird!
8:55 “is this still a warm up for you guys?”
“Mm, yes.”
“Ok good to know” 😅
Wow those guys ARE strong
Would love to see Tomoa try burden of dreams
perfect landing for your last try !!
I live in Japan and B-pump Ogikubo and climbing around Tomoa, Sorato, Miho, and Ogata is always so intimidating yet so amazing to watch.
A TAMY and Emil collab? My dreams are coming true, don’t pinch me ! Nice video as always :)
Wow a new Emil and Magnus video on the same day!
There’s me reading it thinking you were climbing with the Stoltman brothers🏴
damn what a collab!
they way i believe i can do this even tho i never climbed in my life
No way… when I saw this thumbnail I gasped
A great question comes to mind,how can one afford to open a gym this big and get all the holds when the comps barely pay
Sponsorships are the only way to earn money in climbing! I believe the walls were sponsored by the phone network company in Japan. Could be wrong though 😅
nice!
めっちゃ楽しそう！
Yowzah! Stateside so I can't make the festival - but the music looks ace!
i love this video so muchh
Hugeeeeee letssss gooooo
What Bjorn Borg shorts are you wearing Emil - they look great!
they must be using the coolest "brush" ever lol
I was thinking in the Raboutou when I opened the video
Love these japan guys man, they're so freaking humble for who they are.
Just curious but how come you literally do the same collbs as magnus in such a short time?
How about the Abrahamson bros. They are high in the ranking too 😀😀😀
I was scared that you were going to break your shoulder for a second
What climbing shoes do you usually use Emil?
Oh No 😵
The Moment all did it and you were the only one left to do.
Emil I’m first and I love you
Haha love you too my man, hope all is well ❤️ saw that you’re doing world cups, I’ll be cheering so loud that you’ll hear it all the way from Sweden!
nous aussi on t'aime bg
It's crazy to me that their only form of strength training is basically just climbing. I don't think you can really gain the most amount of strength possible with just that, but apparently it's enough for world class.
Janja also exclusively just climbs along with some physio, but no structured strength training. Such a young sport, so much yet to know!
Might be the best way to gain climbing specific strength, and also great technique while doing it. In another video Tomoa said he doesn't think Japanese climbers are as strong as the Europeans but they compensate through technique
Tomoa said in the Magnus video he only did strength training for speed climbing IFRC
Strength training seems more theoretical, whereas just climbing is a lot more practical. I think it really emphasises their point about climbing technique. While strength opens up more options in approaching problems, technique improves the efficacy of that applied strength. Both are important, but I think the japanese favors the latter as they're leaner and lighter.
@@spacevadr10he also said it in this video
I'd say if you climb since childhood your fingers and arms get adapted while just climbing, so apart from minor physio they can just boulder as training. People that got later in life into it, must do isolated finger and shoulder training to progress and not get injured.
"How long do you warm up for?"
"30 minutes"
Magnus be like 👀
bruh. this is the first time I see akiyo climb after her retirement.
