Route Setting With The Chossiest Holds We Can Find
ฝัง

- In today's episode me and Nikken have a route setting stand off. We both pick out really chossy holds for the other person, and their job is to try and set something great with it. To decide which climb is the best we bring in Anton to be our judge.

Love the Emil walking in the forrest intros
Phew, there's bound to be more of them!
- which anton?
- anton "i wish i could campus like emil"
- great, that narrowes it down by exactly 0 antons
So entertaining to watch (even being a non-climber and just the proud mom of Anton ❤️!!! Great job!!!) with spinach discussion and all! ...and love your t-shirt, Anton 😅!
awwwww
Wholesome
I really like the duel boulder concept. It’s great to see new videos while my gym is temporarily closed due to a little covid outbreak after the holidays here in eastern canada. I’m excited for the hangboard video as i’ve recently started hangboarding
Support this guy!!! He is so entertaining and great climber :) I was used to look only on Magnus Midtbo's channel, but this is at least equaly enjoyable.
Thanks for the hype! :D
love the intro walk & preview of what's to come - paused here just to comment, great stuff Emil
This is my entire life! Every week I have to set with old ugly glossy chossy holds. But I make it work. Strength>texture lmao
I wanna say that I saw somebody trying the terracotta one starting face out, so there are more ways to break the intended beta
Very much like the idea for this video, so hope you do some more of them in the future!
Nice little competition! It is cool to see problems that are more my level :)
Great job Emil!
Spinach for power, love it
i may be a bit late :D, but what a video! 🎉 so fun 💪 a great idea
anton's laughs
I love his shirt!! Where do I get one?
I thought chossy was a term used to describe outdoor rock that is crumbly and breaks apart easily. Are people using it to describe bad/greasy indoor holds now? Asking for a friend. :)
What are your thoughts on people starting to grade the Big Island 8b+ ? Does that demotivate you or doesn't it matter since you just see the route as your personal next step? I'm always kind of sensitive when it comes to my max-grade or the next grade above it.
I'm not demotivated by it at all!
Honestly most boulders that are as famous as Big island are bound to go down in grade as more people climb it. If an 8C "suits you" it can feel much easier than an 8A that doesn't. Grades are so incredibly subjective so I think if I let it get to me I probably wouldn't enjoy pushing my grades anymore. I see it as a next step in my progression as a climber, 8C or not :-)
@@EmilAbrahamsson Thats seems like a very good attitude towards it :) I appreciate the reply
The orange holds are literally every hold in my gym
Anton💪💪💪
You should have Anton on more often. He's a natural in front of the camera and does a great job of explaining everything. Plus, it's cool to see someone closer to my (probably most of our) climbing level. Don't we all wish we could campus like Emil?
No
The setting challenges are fun! I might be in the minority here, but I would also like to see the setting itself and your thought process when you create a boulder.
+1
+9000
A banger as per usual. You're keeping me super psyched while Im currently injured and out of climbing. Thanks man, keep up the great work!✌
Thanks! Glad I can help, and I hope you're back on the wall soon
I should be sleeping but this is better!
Same haha
Yeah
Idk about Europe, but Choss in the US refers to crumbly rock or rock that’s precarious and has a potential to break off.
Same here in Oz
I like that Nikkens boulder kinda climbs how a lot of choss boulders climb, lil micro bumps between awkward bumpy holds
First time I have actually seen the boulders in the gym before seeing them in your video ;-) I haven't tried yours before, just Nikkens one once (and it felt weird). There are too many nice ones right now :-D
All those videos sound like bangers for sure
Videos showing the thought process when setting are always fun !
Who would have thought someone could make interesting use of that EP ring/jug? In our gym we just recently sorted those and a couple of awful others out and sold them, because of their nasty haptics. The multicoloured ones look even worse. I can't even imagine, what was going through the mind of the shaper! 😆
DUDE very excited for your videos. Favourite youtuber!
thanks hooomie! :D
Video was btw not in my Subscriber Box
Same problem right here
YIKES :)

There are at least two broad categories of spinach: flat-leaf and savoy, which is a more crinkly shape. Now some people believe that semi-savoy is also a category of spinach. Savoy spinach tends to yield the best, semi-savoy is notable for being particularly resistant and versatile, and flat-leaf, being the easiest to rinse, tends to be used in bulk applications such as canning and freezing. Within those three categories are a number of cultivars, some of the most popular being Indian summer, catalina, bloomsdale, space, and red carnival/red kitten. Beyond that there are a few cultivars of spinach that don't quite fit any of these mold, including New Zealand and Malabar. Based on the expertise I've gained over the last six minutes, I've seen at least 27 different cultivars of spinach, which doesn't include an unquantifiable number of heirloom cultivars that small farmers or experienced home gardeners may have. Please show this to Nikken.
Really liked this one, cool concept! I'm a fan of old gyms and old holds, they both need more love. There's so much emphasis these days on modern holds and modern setting, I think it would be super awesome to see some more videos like this with old classic holds and setting fire problems with them. Throw it back, respect!
Cheers mate! I'll make another one with more in-depth on the setting I believe :-)
Damn youtubers... team kids all use the word choss now but have no clue what it actually means
I wanna see more ANTON!!! strong boy.
#metoo
Road to Crimp Master with Anton - A new series where we see him work his way through the new blue in the cave and the recent red upstairs!
It would be cool to have an episode where aton breaks every beta 😂
just finished love the concept of setting challenges Emil
Guys, I really don't see how these holds are choss?.....where I'm from choss is loose/poor quality rock...just seems like a clickbate title pfft...
Haha well in the more common definition of "choss" you're right. We've been using "choss" as a term for shitty holds in Sweden since I started climbing, and within our circuits its even spread to being used towards anything. "What a chossy car" and stuff like that. The word is being used to describe something that's crappy.
Clearly it isn't quite as widespread of a term as we seem to think it is :P
Please tell me more about the spinach
i thought choss meant all the holds break off
Yeah, when a route is chossy the rock is loose and crumbly. Confused me when I read the title!
I’m not the first, but I won’t be the last
Early gang btw
Super fun episode Emil. Cool idea, good execution. Anton is also really entertaining to watch, and it's a nice change of pace to see someone who doesn't do 8A for his warmups, too. :)
Perfect hype for my setting session tomorrow. 👌
LOVE THE SETTING COMPS
Always thought cross was crumbly/ maybe unstable ?
Just a heads up if this video does more poorly than others: I didn't (and still don't) see this video in my sub feed. I only came across it because I saw it in the related videos to the newest Wide Boyz video.
YOU'RE VEGAN?? share some recipes ->
so how many different types of spinach are there
Climbing in -10C, isn't that really bad for your tendons?
The holds look better than any in my gym
So cool to wtach ! keep going Emil !
In Sweden do you also use chossy to describe outdoor routes with loads of loose rock? In Britain I haven't heard the way you guys use it
Same in Britain
Now Cordelia on both!
Great video Emil!! Fun to see you guys boulder. Can't wait until the gym here reopens!! 🤞
We have the same blue white mixed hold at the small climbing wall of my university. I honestly love them. Yes, they are weird, and that is what I like about them. They have set some crazy cool routes with these holds.
Yeah I mean they're awesome in a way. Some of the features are just so unique that it's ridiculous, which I really enjoy encountering here and there
Us too! You're not by any chance from Germany?
I had some of the holds that Emil used in my home gym... those things have 0 texture and are awful😂
For real though man, how many types of spinach ARE there?
This video didn't show up in my subscription feed.. super weird
Turns our when I used "Premiere" it doesn't pop up in peoples subscription box :/
@Emil....I absolutely LOVE videos like this!!! As a competitive person/climber I love the challenge aspect between u and nikken....but as a mid range climber I also love seeing u guys set tough routes and show their intended beta.......man all in all I love all the content here lol keep it coming sir!!!!
The holds nikken got to build with were grosssss!
Haha too true..
This was really fun. Loved the format, from the intro to the independent judging. And bonus spinach, love spinach.
Hi Emil,
Great video as usual! Here’s a quick video idea!
I would absolutely love to see an in-depth video going over your warmup and stretching routine and how you go about your rest days!
Thanks for the upload Emil. Your videos keep me psyched to train while the gyms are shut down :)
hey emil! i'm from North America so your video previewed at 4:00am. I tried to stay up and watch it but i fell asleep at 3:30 sadly haha
Love this format. More setting competitions. 👍🏻
Terracotta one was my fave, looks awesome. I don't think i'll have a shot at sending the multi colored one but the terracotta one looks almost doable :D
We'd call the first hold on Nikken's problem "a chickenhead." They all look like holds I've seen on limestone
Great vid and challenge, very entertaining, would be cool to see more footage of you guys working through the setting!
Great video as always , keep climbing and inspiring!
I don’t think ive ever heard the word Choss before, but this was great. I always love setting (and then testing) videos.
comment for algorithm, keep it up dude. love the content.
do more challenges! yall are funny together
I’ve never seen Anton in a video before. He seems like a good lad, would love to see more of him in the future
Loved this video! Keep up the great work!
Looking good as always !
Grym video som alltid! Kul att se King Anton 😀
I like the thought you put into this
Lmao this is what every hold looks like in my gym. The Edge: Miami FL
There was a second when he looked around and I thought we were lost 🤣🤣
four friends haha
MORE OF THESEEEE
Very clever
What camera are you using? The video quality is great!
I'm using the sony A7III with a Tamron f2.8 17-28mm lens :) that + a ronin SC2 gimbal
First
Sneaky first.. well done!
@@EmilAbrahamsson Well, you have to use all you got to be first in your videos ;-)
Would love to see Anton as a test climber again. Especially when breaking your beta so nicely! 👍🏻
I hurt my finger on holds like Nikken's climb. I avoid those holds now 😂
Anton is great! Bring him back! Also your boss too👍
when people say choss while referring to indoor climbing 🤦🏼♂️
Honestly I use choss for everything.. "How was your gym sesh?" - "choss..", "How was your spinach" - "Choss and old"
@@EmilAbrahamsson I use choss for the stuff that almost kills me while trad climbing. Like me partner yells “choss!” and blocks fall down 2 feet from my head. I highly recommend the Rotwand in Eldorado Canyon so you can experience genuine choss. Or alpine routes after the sun has baked them for a few hours
Nikken's Boulder seems better to me. Terracotta one was a bit too easy to break where the chossy old one had a more clear forced beta. I also think the moves were cooler on nikken's set
