- Ahead of his appearance at The La Sportiva BMC British Bouldering Championships, Hangar Ambassador Alex Waterhouse hits the yellow set at our Liverpool Matchworks wall. Can Alex flash our hardest grade? And does attempting to flash change the way you hit a climb?

Insane. Yellows are crazy hard here. Even the best local guys struggle. He made them look like blues.
I struggle with oranges 💀
You know you are good, when you make other think they can do the boulder too. After watching this, I totally think I can flash all of them, but I know I cannot climb these in several sessions. :D
Dude made me feel like I can literally fly, and I would probably struggle to get my feet off the ground on most of these boulders.
Yeah, and the word 'Pro' infront of 'climber' in the title may also be a little hint at him being good ;)
@@Dave1507 How does this have anything to do with my comment?
@@GoodLuck-rh8tb You know you are good, when you're a pro climber. get it now?
@@Dave1507 That is a meaningless argument to make.
“Turned out not to help at all. Thus is life.” Most British thing I’ve ever heard
Yeeees, great video. Definitely feel like a trip to a Hangar is in order.
I'm watching an elite climber while lying in bed after falling over while trying to open a door today, cool
This is very relatable
Dang - u ok?
@@kensutton6343 All good, I was slightly embarrassed but fine
being able to do this many hard problems in one session is insane endurance. wow
Inspiring stuff from Alex, always appreciate his down to earth attitude
Watching this has really got me hyped for bouldering later today! Also loved the music 👌🏼
Great vid, it's great watching an expert do his thing. Only problem was, I really struggled to hear the dialogue. Keep up the good work
Absolutely great vid. Music is mixed a little loud and perhaps some audio levelling on the voice would make it perfect!
Yeah, I just mute when the climb starts
This dude is awesome, great video.
Super cool guy! Nice video
The start of the first yellow… lol. Absolutely hanging.
petition for you to start a channel!

music fine but far too loud relative to voices. great vid!
awesome! please show the climbs before he gets on them, would be so helpful :)
Alex, you need to be in all the things.
crazy strong
when he monoed the bolt hole it made my feel like I had an A2 injury again
He made yellows look like greys
I thought the music was awesome and I would like to know the artist! Also sick climbing, would love to see more!
"Climb it like you mean it"
I struggle with oranges a pot
where are those shorts from? Sick pair
Oddballs
i've only just managed to send my first two reds and feel a bit insulted that he said it's at a pretty amenable level ;p
like, mate, it took me quite a while haha
What do you do when you reach this level. I feel like it would get boring be able to just easily do every problem in a gym
climbing outside
Probably what men do, real climbing.. not bouldering.
@@fiveoboy01 bouldering is real climbing….
spray wall, moonboard or harder gyms; pros are FAR from being able to flash the set of the hardest colors in paris gyms.
I don’t understand what’s grades “yellows” are supposed to be. Someone help me out?
V7+ in TCH.
idk what you mean, the music was ok..
Yeah I thought the music was fine. Each to their own I guess.
Nice route setting and cool video. Correct me if I'm wrong though, to my knowledge I thought you can only use bolt holes on walls and not on holds! Use of bolt holes on holds usually make holds twice as easy, especially on slopers!!?
Bolt holes on the wall are not allowed for hands but you can step in them (barely lol).
They can block bolt holes on actual holds if they want but it's pretty rare for it to be easier to mono a bolt hole like this and have it be easier than the intended beta so generally fine
@@slapthesloper bolt holes have saved me more than once though haha sometimes they do make it easier for small hands and fingers :)
No bolt holes on the wall for hands, volumes and holds are on, and if use of the bolt hole made a problem tremendously easier then the setting is poorly thought since often thumbing the bolt hole as with a pinch is the most useful, but would almost never take a worse position on the hold just to get a slight improvement on pinching. There are those sinker monos… I mean commercial gyms don’t often set with plugs but few people want to mono for a random plastic problem, you just know you’re cheating yourself, same as not trying the run and jump because technically you can climb in off volumes or some such.
I pretend bolt holes don't exist, they are not meant to be there but obviously have to be, no one should use them under any circumstances in my opinion
Oooofff at 14, that's how you pop a finger. Atleast that's how I would pop a finger.
he looks bristish
16:40 maybe stop moving the camera so it won't be so disoriented and dizzy for viewing
The music is so loud compared to the people. Ruins the whole video
Cool video, had to unfortunately mute due to that God-awful music
