I know no one cares but I managed to stick my first couple of hand jams yesterday (a rare sight in a bouldering gym). It felt really weird and especially off width jams were tricky but it was great fun!
I think you should try and do a breakdown of some of the climbing we saw during the Olympics, there is a lot of interest about it, now would be a good time to capitalise on that. Great vid as always Magnus.
The camera angles are what makes the lead climbing so interesting. When I can get a sense of what you're feeling and the angle of the wall and distance to holds, it makes it really exciting for other climbers *palms constantly sweating during the vid*
I find lead climbing way more interesting than bouldering, as I am a new-ish lead climber myself and i love watching you lead climb, gives me a good idea of what im up against when i progress to the hard grades! keep doing lead climbing as much as you can cause its great to watch!
Its so fun to see Magnus and Marte just have fun and mess around, hope you guys are doing well and having fun climbing :) By the way, good job in the camera work and editing, see you next vid! Have a good one guys, not just Magnus, but the whole crew
Lead climbing is definitely not boring to watch, its nice and relaxing though. It feels like you're solving a massive puzzle and the more I watch you the more I see the pattern and the next moves and now I guess what holds you will use next. Its quite fun and as long as you are enjoying yourself, the content seems to be solid. Keep up the good work.
Watching Marte is super inspiring as a beginner climber. When Magnus climbs he makes everything look easy, and with Marte you can see how hard it is and how much progress she makes. Makes me want to go to the gym!
20:03 that moving camera shot with other volumes moving relaative to you seemed so epic! Like a battle in a field full of obstacles, only, upside down!
Magnus could post a video of him and Marte playing chess for 30 minutes and I would still watch it. Love the content it gets me psyched to go to the gym!
This is funny to me because as an amateur chess player, I watch a lot of chess content on TH-cam. Magnus and Marte playing chess for 30 minutes would be like a dream come true.
@@MrVannspreder saaame! I find that climbing and chess have a very similar entertainment value because as a viewer, you can follow the moves and try to think of what will happen next. They're both cerebral sports in some ways!
The more lead climbing the better! Bouldering is awesome too, but we really get to see your technique shine with so many moves back-to-back in the flow of lead climbing. It's really great to watch and learn
The reason your page is so successful is because you’re extremely authentic, actual world class climber who has won many tournaments. It would be cool to hear your opinion post-Olympic and how the scoring went. I’d love if you got guys like Ondra or Megos on to climb with and do some videos. Hope you can keep everything going, and best of luck with your relationship.
19:30 That is the most cinematic view I've ever seen in a climbing vlog! Wowowow! The big aperture, the composition, the angle, the colors! Props to the camera man!
Pre-ordered to give back a little for your kindness and showing yourself to the world. I really enjoy seeing you both :) This sounds so dumb but I mean it
Love watching the lead climbing videos. Especially that last one, sat here with sweaty palms just watching how high that climb was. Good work and loved the music.
As a fellow climber rediscovering lead again, I'm happy for more lead climbing content, I'm up to 6b+ but am aiming for 7a before the new year. All the tricks n tips Magnus, thank you. Keep up the good work. 🏴🏴🏴
Found that thing you said about lead climbing being an investment very motivating. I recently got my lead license and I'm struggling to top anything without having to take multiple times to de-pump. I'm just going to force myself to do lead all the time so I can get fit and be able to feel that flow. More lead vids would be great!
Watching Marte is always great. She's not just stunningly beautiful, her attitude to 'having a crack' is outstanding. She's become quite a good climber in her own right. I'm so happy you two found each other. I was also impressed with how red Magnus' back and shoulders became whilst climbing. You see that in elite level swimmers as the blood flow ramps up.
yay, finally some lead! I'd love to see more of it, it's definitely not boring and I actually enjoy it more than bouldering, a lot more fun as Magnus said :)
19:30 OMFG!!! Just when I thought my brain got too pumped for this. Everything after this point looked like an OP character going all in all out before the form toggles off. SSJ3 mode. Burst mode. Devilishly amazing to watch!!!
Pre-ordered a signed copy, super stoked to read it! Congratulations on finishing it up! More lead climbing, please. Watching you lead is like a choreographed dance.
As a lead climbing fan myself, I definitely would love to see more! Especially some stuff about resting, the mental part of it all and like how to project a route best...
Always happy for any lead-related content ! Also, good job Marte! In the future, remember that, “A loaded foot never slips.” When in doubt, put more pressure through your feet, and they’re less likely to slip off the hold. And when on slabby feet, drop your heels to get more rubber contact, both will help you feel more secure 🙂
I really enjoy seeing some lead climbing on your channel Magnus, and if you love lead climbing, you should absolutely do more of it! It will help you stay motivated as a youtuber as well, making it easier to make your next non-leadclimbing video that you might be less motivated for. All the best! My wife and I still love your videos - your climbing gym in Kristiansand is what got us interested in climbing, along with your videos of course. Now, our 3 children, where the youngest one is 3 years old, is climbing there together with us pretty much every week, and we love it! Thank you for introducing us to this! ❤️😃
"I haven't done this in a while" he says, then proceeds to climb two 8As and almost an 8B. Oh Magnus, this is why we love you, haha. But I have a theory for a while now. What if the fact that you're doing such versatile climbing and physical activities, from fun challenges to tournaments with friends to climbing with limitations or on coins....what if it's all making you a better climber than ever :D
Magnus ! Bro.......you must do more lead videos ! Climbing on a rope is like meditation , watching you whilst I'm not climbing or resting is not only inspiring but visually fucking awesome !
I think this is the best Magnus video. It has amazing lead routes, a banger of a song, awesome climbing from Marte, and Norwegian. I'd love to hear them talk only in Norwegian for a video.
Lead in that case in a long sequence of technically easier move for Magnus, the question is not about will he get the move?, it is more about will he get enough juice to reach the top? I still enjoy looking him trying his best to get the best technic to save energy.
So nice to see lead climbing and hear you are going to do more of it!! Would be cool if you broke down routes like you do with boulders. Also would be neat to see you go through the process of projecting a route beyond your limit. I know a lot of climbers are training for the fall season, I'd be psyched to see a lead climbing series on strength, power, endurance, power endurance and then performance/projecting for routes. Great to see you back on a rope!!
This was epic! love seeing all climbing disciplines! Definitely dont think lead climbing is boring, if anything its more interesting, sometimes bouldering seems too short and easy
Thanks for showing some lead climbing. I agree, when I watch comps I enjoy the bouldering more than the lead. Largely because, as a climber, you can work through the problem with the athlete. However I do prefer to lead climb over bouldering when I go to the gym. Bouldering is good for practicing technique and if you have no belayer!
I'd love to see you break down the climbing grades for us beginners from 7a -> 9a in lead, like what's the difference between a 7a and a 8a? (in your opinion), is it simply just worse holds or what's going on? Of course it's very different depending on the route but it would be interesting to get a break down of it :)
Definitely more lead climbing videos. Not boring at all, it’s interesting to watch your flow. You don’t get this as much with the bouldering videos. It’s a lot more strength moves
As a larger guy who got back into climbing after almost 10 years, I love watching lead climbing, bouldering is a struggle for me and it is nice to watch how you pace your climbs, as well as techniques that I wouldn't think to use.
I absolutely love lead climbing and there's just not enough of it on youtube tbh. Watching how climbers cope with the route mentally and physically, how expectations meet reality, the tactics and strategy of it all i'm psyched for. I got into climbing cos i was inspired by sport climbing and i find i learn a lot from these videos. Thanks for this Magnus
I love the idea, but just one difficulty and so much space for just one route... But I would definitly try too visit that climbing gym every week for that.
This is my favorite of all of your videos. Marte WAY TO GO!!! Love the lead climbing! Congratulations on the book! Best video you've made! Magnus, you are inspiring.
I knew that you shouldn't cross ropes but not how dangerous it really is. Its insane how fast a rope with weight (climber) would tear if the one on the moving rope was rappeled.
Yes was a good visual of why not to cross ropes. Cutting the rope took me back to reading about ? And the dilemma, getting his rope cut and falling into the cravasse.
i can see how from your perspective lead climbing is boring, but speaking from a climber's perspective I find it very motivating and interesting to watch. Probably my favorite content you put out on the channel. Keep it up Magnus!
That's a really cool lead wall, getting very steep early into the climb, unfortunately that seems to be a rarity among climbing walls. And this blue 8B looks insanely long and pumpy Also perfect timing for this video, after a year of bouldering I just started my toprope journey and am looking to get into lead climbing too :D So personally I would be happy to see more lead climbing, even though I feel like bouldering is easier to get right on video
Congratulations Marte on completing the slab of the week!! You have come so far in your own climbing journey! Great job Magnus on your lead climbing! I love watching your climbs especially the longer sessions. I’m always amazed at how easy you make it all look. Please keep it up!
Not boring at all! My favorite part of this channel because not many people post lead sessions. What I want to see is a more average climber to compare all you and your friend’s mad skills against. A cross section of skill levels :)
Magnus: I’m just wondering. Can you actually be in danger (caused by the belayer) when the belayer uses a grigri? (Except they use the repelling handle)
I mean, lead climbing always have the obvious risk of too much slack and poor positioning, Especially on really dynamic ropes. But when using a grigri one risk is that the belayer would keep the hand on the grigri to feed faster (as aviced by petzl and done by almost everyone), If Magnus falls and the hand is not removed, there is no friction (depending on how good you hold the rope) stopping the rope at all.
Resting and de-pumping on the hand jams Magnus 😀😀
Made me happy watching and hearing that 💪
Lol, I thought of Pete when I saw that move
I saw the hold then I searched for a comment by you guys - am not disappointed lol
Like but leaving it on 69.
When i saw it, i thought, hand jam, that is unusual. Wide boyz would appreciate it.
I know no one cares but I managed to stick my first couple of hand jams yesterday (a rare sight in a bouldering gym). It felt really weird and especially off width jams were tricky but it was great fun!
Love the format: regular session + quirky climbing story/trick
Magnus, more lead climbing. This was fantastic! Good to see you back on the rope my dude! Also, Marte is killing it, keep it up girl!
yes!!! more lead climbing please!!!! this was awesome
Magnus, I wanna see you finishing the blue route!
Magnus lead climbing is my favorite Magnus to watch.
So great!!! I second this.
Not boring at all! Lead climbing is so entertaining for me, there's much more suspence compared to bouldering (:
Seeing how easily friction cut through that rope was honestly kind of eye opening. I expected it to take a lot more.
dyneema is WAY quicker btw... be careful with your fabric!
Under tension, even just body weight, it goes significantly faster.
You gotta keep in mind, it's Magnus pulling on it ;)
I think you should try and do a breakdown of some of the climbing we saw during the Olympics, there is a lot of interest about it, now would be a good time to capitalise on that. Great vid as always Magnus.
For real. I'd also love to see an analysis of the boulder problems that weren't completed on the men's and women's side.
I bet there would be copyright issues
Copyright issues
@@jordanheller1151 probably so unfortunately:(
@@jamesc5968 might be able to do it because of fair use things. Could be seen as a critique which is covered under fair use
Alternative Title: Out-of-shape Magnus will still always be better on lead than you.
It’s wild how strong he is for not lead climbing a lot recently.
It’s not raw strength, it’s his flexibility and technique.
@@Mike-oz4cv of course he has superior technique lol. He’s a former pro… but his strength is what he was known for.
The camera angles are what makes the lead climbing so interesting. When I can get a sense of what you're feeling and the angle of the wall and distance to holds, it makes it really exciting for other climbers *palms constantly sweating during the vid*
I keep my chalk ready nearby when i watch magnus climbing.
that shot at 9:29 is absolutely gorgeous
I find lead climbing way more interesting than bouldering, as I am a new-ish lead climber myself and i love watching you lead climb, gives me a good idea of what im up against when i progress to the hard grades! keep doing lead climbing as much as you can cause its great to watch!
The next "hard" grade is always the hardest, cuz its so close, but out od reach. That's the beauty of climbing ❤️
Really happy seeing Marte finishing the slab of the week! :)
And also great to have her in the videos again!
Its so fun to see Magnus and Marte just have fun and mess around, hope you guys are doing well and having fun climbing :)
By the way, good job in the camera work and editing, see you next vid! Have a good one guys, not just Magnus, but the whole crew

Seeing Martes progress is so cool! I really enjoy watching her - as a representative of us mere mortals - having so much fun with the climbs.
20:03 that moving camera shot with other volumes moving relaative to you seemed so epic! Like a battle in a field full of obstacles, only, upside down!
You know it's gonna be good when the first words are "Don't try this at home" 😂
You know she's a keeper when the last thing she thinks about before going to sleep is climbing 👍
I've been climbing around three month, I think I am enjoying climbing more than bouldering. Hope you can make some lead climbing more often :D
I like lead better as it's what I associated with mountaineering from my youth watching Chris Bonnington on TV.
Getting experience with rope is very good to really appreciate bouldering, no rope little walls require more technic to get real fun.
Lead climbing is definitely NOT boring to watch, it's awesome!
Magnus could post a video of him and Marte playing chess for 30 minutes and I would still watch it. Love the content it gets me psyched to go to the gym!
Just to confirm, you’re not mixing up Magnuses here, right? ;-)
This is funny to me because as an amateur chess player, I watch a lot of chess content on TH-cam. Magnus and Marte playing chess for 30 minutes would be like a dream come true.

Sicilian defence or Queens gambit which is your favourite thing to do ?
I like the horsey 😉
Magnus Mitdbo vs Magnus Carlsen chess-climbing face-off let's go!
The more lead climbing the better! Bouldering is awesome too, but we really get to see your technique shine with so many moves back-to-back in the flow of lead climbing. It's really great to watch and learn
Personally I'd love to see you do more lead climbing Magnus. I'm taking a belaying class on Wednesday so I can start trying it with my friends.
I just took mine. Game changer so much fun good luck

Love the lead climbing content! And wow, so impressive route climbing even when your "not in lead shape". Wow!
If he WAS in shape would Magnus be climbing 9a ?
Love the lead climbing content Magnus! Anything you enjoy doing, we enjoy watching!
And just preordered the book!! Can’t wait to read it 😊

13:55 Marte gets her first Slab of the Week clear. Yaaaaaay!
Marte: Okay how do I get down?
Magnus: (Casually) you just jump down
Marte: 😲 !?!?!?!?!
But high I thought to jump.
Your lead climbing videos have always been my favorites, that's for the upload!
This was epic! love seeing all climbing disciplines! Definitely dont think lead climbing is boring, if anything its more interesting, sometimes bouldering seems too short and easy
I really liked the lead. It gets really tense near the end of these routes. Superb job on the camera as always.
Yes, more lead!! 👍🤘
Anton and yourself mindset is so awesome. Struggling with something and you just keep saying "Okee, one more try" until you get it. I love it.
Almost at 1 mill subs! Keep it up with the awesome content!
Lead is awesome and as a lead climber, I learn a lot from watching you climb. Keep up the awesome job.
I love to see more lead climbing, only downside is that its harder to film than bouldering. Exciting stuff!
I absolutely love watching you lead climb. I just got into it myself so I don’t mind it at all!! Do more of it please lol!!

(in your opinion), is it simply just worse holds or what's going on? Of course it's very different depending on the route but it would be interesting to get a break down of it :)

the rope whip clip clip was so funny
Yer a true look at this it's easy type moment 😀 soon as Magnus said that knew it was doomed.
Science teacher his experiments never worked !
The music was choosen and placed really well! Love your lead climbing videos, always waiting for more :)
“I’m really pumped”
Proceeds to climb on for many more clips and cut feet multiple times
Absolutely insane
Ohh and I forgot he’s not in lead shape
I absolutely love lead climbing and there's just not enough of it on youtube tbh. Watching how climbers cope with the route mentally and physically, how expectations meet reality, the tactics and strategy of it all i'm psyched for. I got into climbing cos i was inspired by sport climbing and i find i learn a lot from these videos.

More lead! And for goodness sake, buy that girl some belay glasses!
I really enjoy watching the lead climbing. Watching you clip helps me learn better technique for clipping, and it's really helpful.
Every gym should have a "Slab of the Week"! #SOTW
I love the idea, but just one difficulty and so much space for just one route...
But I would definitly try too visit that climbing gym every week for that.
This is my favorite of all of your videos. Marte WAY TO GO!!! Love the lead climbing! Congratulations on the book! Best video you've made! Magnus, you are inspiring.

Nope please spend the money from my book purchase more responsible ')

That's a really cool lead wall, getting very steep early into the climb, unfortunately that seems to be a rarity among climbing walls. And this blue 8B looks insanely long and pumpy
