Alright he’s ready send him out
No rope
Onsight
Y’all are so negative man... good for you little homie you crushed it
I ain’t see any negative comments
There is any negative comments
@@xbom3229 there are a lot
We all know this is not comparable to the actual pitch, but still good work from the kid
same holds? Def comparable obvi not the same thing sure
@@ethernet389 it's similar but the distances and starting holds were much much easier here. In free solo they were pretty clear that a miss with the kick meant a fall. Not the case here.
@@troyg3831 I guess because the climbing wall in a gym is flat and can more easily be stepped on but if you do the route optimally in the gym it shouldn't be much different
It’s most definitely comparable; people saying otherwise are non-climbers who watches Free Solo.
@@imaxdigital7052 Yeah I get the original comment though about it not being comparable to the danger of falling and not doing the first few pitches. But its comparable to just the one pitch.
I know I’m probably 6 or 8 years older than you but I want to be you when I grow up
Thx, turning 15 in a week, and this was like 2 years ago 😄
Same bruh
All of you should try bouldering. That's what this is. I do it every week!
@Poke-Saur it's the best! 🤙🤙
Why y’all hating on the kid 🤣 I thought climber culture was all love
Climber culture is all about spraying and elitism. Probably the most toxic community around.
climbing culture is all egos and nothing else. it's toxic
Imagine if Alex had barn doored like that during the free solo.
What does barn doored mean?
@@Moneymakinshark-dawg when your positioning/grip causing your body to swing away from the wall like an open door.
@@SpitefulAZ that would make everyone's heart drop
my heart would fall to my feet bro
Mikey Shaefer (guy recoding on the ground with his telephoto lens) would have probably shit his pants...
Minus the suicide at the end, that was sweet! 👌
Everyone so jealous lol
Nice! Flowed so natural, very impressive.
Many thx 🙏
Not dead! Congrats!
lolllll
That volume makes it so much easier
It sure makes it easier but hardest was the three moves after the start
@Robert Kearney yeah very unlikely that a kid would have the reach necessary to do the real problem. also, that he was able to use that beta without falling off means the holds are too good. this is the fault of the setters, not the kid, obviously
Pretty sure the setter was alex honald
@@jeremybuckets have you ever climbed in your life?
@@jeremybuckets alex set it himself 😂😂😂 he said it was as accurate as it could get
Ah yes the ninja kick, always wanted to try it
climbing one of the coolest sports.
and timeless.
also really keeps the brain working with the body.
Well done lad!!
Super smooth. Nicely done.
That’s sick! Wish I could practice on that
I'm sure the route setters at your gym could make that happen.
If you want to try this. you should go on google maps and look for the closest bouldering place near you. Once you find one, yes this is called bouldering.
Can't hear at the end for all the woops and praise for the kid......................... 👂🏼✋🏼😔
Well done lad! Woop!
Woop!
That was impressive bro. Probably not one of us in the comment section can even get past the first step.
Awesome, but yeah I saw the video of Alex recreating the route and the volume wasn't part of it.
Alex is also climbing on super high friction rock
That wall is nowhere near that grippy
So I'd say there is deffo some give and take
@@MrLiamashton no the granite on el cap is actually pretty slippery for granite
The kid is like 6
How bouldering works: *gets set on the first holds and move one arm*
Guy watching: "comeoncomeon, YeAh MaN, gEt ThAt FoOt Up"
Yeah but that was said after he reached the starting position...
This looks fun
It was super fun to try it on a safe hight 😄
Who ever recorded this stop chewing gum like that.
Great job
Thx 🙏
Amazing climb!!
Thx, was really hard, but fun👍
If he would do a karate kick to the wall on 0:30, that would be perfect
Still very impressive
this is hard as fuck i cant even climb out of my bed when my alarm goes ofz
It's not that hard
That was awesome
Thx, was harder than it looks, did fall of a couple of times before I made the send
@@KernClimbing when done right climbs/boulder always look easier than they actually are. Especially for people that are not part of the climbing world. Either way it was well climbed!
Ferox Many thx, it was for sure not easy to make this one
Awesome! Really wanna get into climbing but don’t have any friends who would go with me
Thats the beauty of bouldering:) lol
@@samjohnson3283 haha I’ve just been hang boarding every other day and doing ab workouts until I actually have the opportunity to go.
This is why I boulder :) I don't need to rely on anyone
@@darkexcalibur87 yea I just have to build up enough strength so that I’m not self conscious when I go by myself, or at least that’s what I’ve been telling myself hahaha
Don't wait on your friends. Do it because you love it. I lift I dont climb but I train alone most days. Don't rely on other people to do what you love. All you need is yourself.
Good work kid, keep crushing it
Is the last ledge that he hangs on the one you are supposed to double Dino to?
Not bad kid, make sure that flexibility stays up!
Good job!
Nice climbing!
For all those debating whether this version of the Freerider Boulder problem holds up, Alex did not set this! The permaset that Alex set as a recreation of the boulder problem on Freerider was at the VauxWall West Climbing Centre located in the United Kingdom. Not sure where the gym is in this video, but this boulder problem was set by the staff and uses vastly different holds than Honnold did in his recreation. Not to say that this particular version of it isn't hard, in fact it looked about V5 (Whereas the Honnold version is ~V7). Check out the Honnold permaset version of the Freerider boulder problem here : th-cam.com/video/glwPXPluouc/w-d-xo.html
Well done 💪😎🤜
well done to the kid!
very cool!
Alex would b proud !!!!!
Very good man!
Free solo 2 coming soon !!!
This is soooooo cooool
I am a size 7 and a half in men’s rock climbing shoes (it now fits like an 8 and a half) but for a person who is 6 feet tall and is still growing I feel like that is small feet right?
Nice work dude
Nice work
You didn’t say a censored “fuck yeah” when you finished it!
No chance of death for breakfast for this little fella.
😎👍
i got scared when u slipped
Those foot holds are way too generous
Curious what shoes is this
In this video I am using LaSportiva Solution orange, now a days I am using Tenaya Lati
Those mats don't sound too soft
They are quite hard but I do like them a lot
Wow young man!
Rock on!!!
Damn he went off
Ready for Al clap free solo!
Good job kid
What a champ
The whole route on el cap was graded 7c
This part was the hardest although it's 7b
Dawg that is unfair. That’s fuckin rad dude!!!
Är det i Akalla? Jag måste också testa isåfall! Bra jobbat!🤛🏻👏👏
Det var i Akalla, dock finns den inte kvar då det var en tävling från Black Diamond under premiären av freesolo filmen... den var super hård, var Fredrik Sträng som arrangerade tävlingen på instagram i samarbete med BD
Kern Climbing Aaa det var synd. Men tack för info!
I had sweaty palms just watching kid
Me too when I saw the real deal in Yosemite 😀
Yeeeaaahhh tremendo maquinon
what's the V rating on this?? I think the pitch is 5.13 on El Capitan.
Hi, hard for me to say... it was built as a replica by Black Diamond in several gyms in Nordics, and they had a competition for people to film when they climbed it. but i guess it would be somewhere around the same V grade except the height it was executed on by Alex :)
We all know the volume isn’t on the actual route, but nice send anyway!
volumes are always on, its part of the wall
You are correct, but I was referring to the actual boulder problem on El Capitan :)
V4-5 I’m assuming?
That’s maybe true.. grades is just grades
Doesn't seem that hard... what's the grade?
Not only did he complete the climb, he handled that 5-6 foot jump to the ground pretty well!
That’s nothing
The golden rule of climbing: No matter how good you get, there’s always some kid 10 times better than you
Title got me confused. Is there an other way of climbing a bolder crux than free solo?!
It’s the crux from the climb Alex hon old free solod... idk if your serious or not
Nice kid
All boulders are free solo tho right
He’s referring to the movie free solo with Alex honnald
It’s the consequences that make the problem hard
jalidkalid nah mate it’s still v7 this is just not accurate and childafied to make kids feel good about their strength
Really? And u know this because you have climbed it? Its the most technical spot on the route. Its fucking hard, not cause its a,big fall.
The problem being hard makes the consequences, ain’t gotta worry bout the consequence if the problem is easy to solve.
@@rafaelhilder9564 doing this at 2k feet is a little different.
Congratulations,you didn’t experience a horrific death from falling 2000ft
Comments in here like
But : can you do El Capitan ??
Give this buddy a break. Maybe in 2040 relax yall
Good work! Now imagine doing it 2000 feet off the ground and after 20 pitches of 5.12+ climbing. Now you begin to realize how insane Alex's achievement is.
Holy shit bro take a chill pill on the gum
He has a negative bodyweight. Still kudos.
I’m 5’7 built like a fucking shit house but never could climb well because climbers are often tall lanky like 6’3 170 😂 but mad respect to them all it is not ducking easy
SMHCHMK SCHMK SHHMK SHMMAK SHCHMK SHCHMK
your gum is good i hope ?
v3
Imagine doing it after 2 hours of climbing
No death today
Corrext, safe to do indoor 😀
eghhhh spit that damn chewing gum out
Ofc it’s easier close to the ground and whatnot but still, damn fine work man.
The volume wasn’t even intended for the route it was from another part of the wall. Holds where also very generous
Would've been great without him smacking in the background
svenne
Good but not the same tho
This short video would have been really good if it wasn't for the person chomping and smacking their lips. In fact it should be "A THING" that nobody is allowed to suck on sweets or chew gum or basically eat anything whilst recording.
It is a boulder so ofcourse it is a free solo.
It is the boulder problem alex honnold did on El Capitan at a height of 700m ... he did it Free solo
It's referencing the documentary
This guy, you wanna sound like you know what you're talking about. Yet made yourself sound so stupid.
Oklahoma Man i read the text wrong. I admited that i did wrong. If my awnser was aggressive in your eyes im sorry for offending you.
I thought the same thing initially. The poster should have capitalized Free Solo. Oklahoma Man is throwing unnecessary shade.
A little man bun gets it's wings
It must be nice to weigh 75lbs.
You couldn’t do it even if you were
but the volume... shouldn't be there
Stfu
You can use a volume on any problem
Isnt it called bouldering🤔 Anyway well done 👍
The Boulder problem is a “pitch” (part of the route) from the movie free solo
Chewing gum into the mic for an instant downvote
Agreed. Any filmer that does that needs to be slapped.
nut Lmao You seem like a cool dude. Keep working on that reading comprehension though. It’s tough stuff but I believe in you!
Grown men have a hard time executing the boulder problem this guy makes it look easy
Nice work. But not close to the actual problem. Plus it’s not 2000 feet in the air 😂
Thx, I was glad it was safe and close to the ground 😂👍
The gum chewing is triggering me for some reason
Try doing it when DEATH is at the bottom, not mats. But still good job. I couldn't do it
@VBZ i said good job and that i couldn't do it. Get a life
@@lnr12241 Your comment was completely fair but so was his criticism of it. Your response of incivility reflects on you, not him.
@@juliawilliams1355 just had to be heard didn't ya. . .you get a life too. Just kidding. You are right. I don't know why i wrote that. Doesn't even make sense. Must have been in a bad mood that night. I apologize to both of you.
A lot of small things on this wall that make it easier than the real thing. But still good job bud
free solo? ahahaha
yeah. the movie. dumbass.
It's a replica of the moves you would have to do in one of the sections on El Cap
