I challenged Jakob Schubert (and I regretted it)

- I met @JakobSchubertClimbing in Aarau (Switzerland) at Kraftreactor and we set one boulder each to challenge ourselves with the new Macros holds from @WALLTOPIACHANNEL
thanks to Kraftreactor team, Emilyan, and Beardfrost production!
Stefano's boulder was great but the 3D climbing on Jakob's was just incredible.
This routesetting video did remind me -- what happened to the trade to get yourself your own gym, Stefano? It's been awhile since there was a trade.
I was going to ask the same thing
Actually what amazed me the most is that there is such a good gym in the small town Aarau, where the population is just around 20k... And Jakob's problem is just amazing!
The more I look at Jackob doing its flippery swithceroo move, the less I understand how it's actually possible.
Transparent holds are noice!
Am I tripping or have I seen this before?
Im not a fan of the huge, rounded holds you both made your routes from. I mean having such holds in a gym is great of course, adding variety! And I do like slopers. Watching this new gym overall most of the holds are huge, slopey and to some degree look very similar in shape&size. Maybe not visually, but in terms of grabbing/steping on them. I know it is kinda oldschool to use small crimpy holds or (bigger) rock look-a-likes. But I really like holds that are similar to rock shapes rather than most you see in the short video here. Having a great variety should be the most important thing in a gym. Like pockets, conglomerate, small crack, weird shape overall etc. I feel like this style in new holds is kind of a fashion/design thing to make them look cool. It also feels like gyms want to have holds that are used in competitions. But whats to point when you can just climb 1 (artificial design) route instead of 3 normal ones ? For example the dual texture of the holds Jakob uses: Whats the point here? Without dual texture you could create marginal smears on the steeper angles at least. But like this I really dont see any purpose. Takes way more space and is probably very expansive. Dont get me wrong, some holds making good use of the dual texture, no doubt. But sometimes I really wonder why they even make holds like that. Maybe Im watching it too critically... was fun watching you guys create & climb the boulders ;)
You have a point, i learn there is a difference between outdoor and indoor climbers too. Most indoorclimbers really wanna climb 7A wich is strange cos in these days to be a somebody, you have to climb 9A at least. Still haven’t figered that out. Last i had a guy who bragged he did all the blue circuit, wich is V0 and i asked wich one was the most fun? His answer but i did them all 🤣
@@dennis1802 "Most indoor climbers wanna climb 7A" - I don't think so. Different climbers have different goals, and not everyone has specific grade goals.
Also, I don't know any climbers who just climb to try to "be a somebody". They climb because they love climbing.
Lastly, the guy that "bragged" he did the whole blue circuit.. maybe he was just happy and wanted to share his achievement? There's nothing wrong with that. You were once a V0 climber too.
@@dennis1802 well there are definitly some people that only go to gym. Nothing wrong with that. Actually im glad about it so crags dont get overcrowded :> Doesnt matter where you climb, there are always people that care more or less about grades. Being in nature with friends having a good time, maybe a nice panorama is all that matters. But having a great and hard line to climb on I do enjoy even more than just climbing easy routes first go. Overall that wasnt my point though. New style bouldering in gyms is becoming more and more athletic&dynamic. Sometimes you watching an acrobat like in a circus. I dont mean that negativly, but it shows that this direction is a totally different one than climbing on rock. I like to keep things simple and oldschool.
The Musik is very loud and disturbing for those kind of videos.
Setting a move that Jakob can't do is easy, but setting a move that Jakob can't too and someone else can, is next to impossible.
That was really nicely phrased!
Set a crazy jam that Pete could do it but Jakob can’t?
I watched the toe hook to hand swap at 5:10 multiple times. I've never seen a move like that before. Doesn't seem possible.. then there's Jakob.
Ah yes, my favorite climbers doing sneaky promo for some new holds, my favorite kind of ad 😄
4:27 already contender for best 2024 gym boulder. Incredible moves (and breathtaking attempt 🤯)
yeah what a boulder!
Where is your attempt of the black and white boulder? Probably 6c+
Lmao
"So Jakob, how many hooks are you gonna put in your boulder?"
Jakob: "Yes"
That dynamic switch-feet-and-hands-while-upside-down move at 5:10 is downright insane
It's next level
I audibly gasped alone in my room
Even holding that position aside from the move itself would be very hard I think
One of the best indoor boulder movements I've ever seen
My jaw dropped at this one
As a routesetter I have to say that Jakob's boulder is crazy. I don't know how long it took to develop concept and moves, but wow I'm so inspired!
The coordination move on Jakob’s problem was insane!
Bro, no disrespect to Adam (the legend) but Jakob is currently the best all around climber in the world. He’s done some of the hardest boulders, won the IFSC world championship, climbed some of the hardest routes and climbed the hardest deep water solo climbs. The only thing he hasn’t accomplished is getting on the wall with honnold in some solo action (I hope he doesn’t 😂). Dude is a monster….and don’t get all butt hurt. I’m well aware of Adam’s resume, but I’m talking about right now, not lifetime.
This guy jakob looks strong, he should try some 9c route or 9a boulder...
Haha. Yea maybe project big. I think he could do it.
I hope he won’t break a hold on it !
Maybe BoD?
Well, he did BIG 9c and Alphane Font9a already, hoping to see him on DNA soon.
@@jens1525 r/woosh
Wow Jakob's boulder is incredible, that is awesome
Black and white from Jackob is so epic and strong and my favourite one, however your boulder, the pink one was with great dyno and aesthetic pleasant to watch performing. Great job guys.
V2 in my gym
I was going to say V1 in my gym but you beat me to it 😂🤣😂
I had the chance to test your boulder. I know Jakob is a world champion and all, but he still makes it look waaaaaaaay too easy.
Wow Jakob is an absolute beast! That flying toe-hook on your boulder was awesome.
And then the constant swapping between toes and hands on his boulder was such a cool design
This is so insane how Jakob is releasing the double toe-hook and then catch the hold! 🤯
@5:11 w t f is that move. Jakob might be a great setter too.
Would you guys say Jakob the best climber right now? Because Adam did 9c and many World Championships but Jakob did 9c and also 9a bouldering and he did so quite recent.
That toe hook to hand swap is insane!
I apreesh the throwback to wolfgang güllich and kurt albert pose recreation attempt in the thumbnail.
Love that Stefano actually set a pink one in the corner
The music at about 4:00 keeps whispering "Adam". That's scary.
Why didn't you show your attempts at jackob's boulder?
Stefano would be the most fun Dad / Uncle / Grandpa ever haha
jakob is crazy good at climbing
Probably taken the spot as top climber in the world (IFSC and Project BIG) as Ondra is getting older
For those saying Ondra is younger than Jakob, yes I know that, but age seems to be hitting Ondra harder while Jakob looks like he's aging like fine wine
@@wsxgfhccr How old is Jakob Schubert and how old is Adam Ondra?
@wsxgfhccr 😂 Adam’s younger than jakob
@@wsxgfhccr Jakob has strength advantage I think. Adam is kinda neglecting strength
Great great video!! 2 of the absolutely worlds best! Fun to watch. And cool holds!
Stefano no try Black & White boulder - i cry :(
bro just invented a climbing move
Incredible climbing, watching you two is insane
Y'all are too strong! holy crap never been more inspired seeing plastic climbing but its all so cool, those holds are sick! Whoever decided on the music killed it, Could you list the songs you put in the video?
The climbing is insane, the music is awful.
Jakob with those toe hooks, wow! looks so cool
Jakob's problem was sick.
Jakob is such a beast! Brilliant climbing.
any guesses for the grades on the pink and black? V9 and V10? higher?
I want to see Emil Abrahamsson on Jakob's boulder! Super unique movement and limit climbing.
jakob sending the light grip black dual tex problem was the most impressive footwork ive ever seen
Cool video! Whoever chose the music needs a slap though, whole sections just sound like people are screwing walls next to the mics
Jesus f... Christ, what kind of move do you have to set to make them fall?m?
Stefano, you forgot to mention Jakob is also 9C climber.
What an epic video it was awesome, the setting an the climbers ! Well done
Pink is better for promo, for finals of ifsc bw boulder is better
I feel like the entrance in this gym is worth my month salary
Jakob's boulder is amazing.
noice
Io preferisco il tuo perché tutti quegli agganci di punta non mi fanno impazzire!❤
Jakob Schubert 😮 that was crazy climb
3:16 absolutely insane!!
Great climbing but only a well done advertising....
What a couple of beasts!
That gym looks so cool
Jakob is a beast!
insane!
Very nice
Jakobs performance outdoor bouldering and climbing are just off this world at the moment, hes definatly Top 5 best Climber in the World at the moment.
