@@hannahmorrisbouldering Something I really appreciated was that they both explained what they were trying and why their were doing it (ex: wide base with feet, angled hold with water tipping out of bucket, etc).
14:28 Be started climbing and suddenly Nathan turned into Hannah 👀 🤣 A great coach is able to put themselves into very different shoes than their own. Love every Be collab!
We’ve been practicing our shape shifting ☺️. I found it really interesting that Be was really psyched to try Nathan’s method just as much as her own - really fun to learn from watching the two figure things out too. ☺️
First time I've seen a HMB video without Hannah. Was not expecting the switch of host at the start or when Nathan became Hannah part way through either! No worries though. I've come to value this channel and Nathan is a good host who complements Hannah and brings a useful new dimension too. And Coach Be (Bea?) is beyond words! 😊Awesome y'all!
Another Coach Be video!! This was really interesting to see the comparison between different climbing styles! Also great to see more of Nathan climbing on the channel thank you Hannah! :) ❤️
Really glad you liked it. It’s always fun seeing comparisons between different styles and approaches, I’ll think of ways to bring it out on the channel more 😁
YES !!! Love to see Be again !! This was so much fun to watch ! Actually really cool to see how she uses all her technique magic while under pressure !
Haha there is a 🧚♀️ in the background at 15:30 :) Nice video, it’s so interesting to see the different challenges. My bouldering partner is much smaller than me, and very often we have different solutions for problems.
Really enjoy this kind of video. So interesting to see different ways of doing the same block. Coach Be has a great way of explaining different moves. Excellent climbing and filming. Thank you.
Very interesting to see the strengths and challenges of very different body types and styles on different climbs. Your collaboration with Be has produced exceptionally instructive content. Thanks!
Glad you found it interesting. We’ve loved having Be on the channel for collabs - she’s a brilliant coach and has certainly helped my climbing a lot over the years. 😅
@@NathanBetts I've gathered that from watching the collab videos! Wish I lived closer, but may contact her for remote coaching, in any case. Keep up the great work you and Hannah are doing!
I just wanted to comment because of the short clip of Hannah and Be arm wrestling. Please for both of your safety look up ‘break arm position’ in arm wrestling or have someone knowledgeable teach you. Too many people have had spiral fractures of their humerus bone , while just having some fun challenging each other doing exactly what you were doing. It takes much less force to have that happen then you would think. Be safe!
19:45 - Hannah on the left is in break-arm position, like BIG TIME, that is an extremely dangerous position to be in. Coach Be on the right is also outside of her shoulder (you want the arm between your 2 shoulders), just not as extreme, and her hand is outside of her shoulder and forearm angled backwards, which means the upper arm bone is rotated a bit, and when that happens it takes much less force to spiral fracture/snap the bone a bit above the elbow. Then on a separate note it's more of a finger-battle since the grip happens to be wrong. Boy that was concerning to look at! lol. Goodness me. There's a few basic things to know with armwrestling, otherwise it's so very easy to snap the arm, it doesn't take much force at all. Armwrestling when side-by-side at a table like that, kind of forces terrible table positioning. Then there's the direction of force. You don't want to be pushing directly sideways like in the video. It's very rough on the tendon attachment point on the inside of the elbow, takes years to condition that for side-pressure. Plus it's just a weaker way to armwrestle compared to pulling and opening up their arm (much safer for everyone, too). There are professional armwrestlers who specialise in side-pressure, taking advantage of other armwrestlers who aren't as strong in that way since it's a pretty hardcore way to armwrestle, so it's a very viable strategy for them in that context.
For the algorithem as everyone's covered the points on differing heights, weights and styles. Like Coach B working it out, wide stance to dyno etc must be why she is a top coach 😉
Awesome video, Coach B’s technical, well thought out style is much more me, I’m also only 5’5” but great to see and hear how a taller climber approaches a route. Thank you.
I’m always going to take more advice from short climbers because I think that short climbers are better at movement. Tall climbers are often able to neutralize balance by reaching and grabbing the next hold before moving. While shorter climbers have to learn to climb balanced because they don’t have that advantage.
As a fellow tall guy I love seeing both: it's good to see "ideal" technique, however it's difficult to see how a tall climber should adapt to make it work for them as Nathan described early on in the vid. I really enjoyed the contrast in this vid and hearing the comments about how/why it's difficult for taller climbers because at 6'5 or so I can certainly relate!
I always boulder with my brother, I'm 6'1 and he's 6'2 (his "ape factor" is 1 inch larger then mine) we both weigh the same and we couldn't be more different when it comes to styles. I'm a static climber and he's a dynamic climber. We always have to find a work around to each others solutions
Interesting what Be had to say on the second problem and the difference in height. As a fairly tall climber with a negative ape index (189cm, -4 ape index), I always struggle with bunched up sit starts and my butt usually sticks out more than others on underclings but sometimes I can just reach a hold that others can't. It does feel like it evens out.
if i was doing it - yellow V7 i would go from the yellow boulder to the yellow one on top, move my foot to the nearest colour and then reach to the red one. but that is just my opinion
Thank you very much for your videos. Very helpful. My climbing partner is also taller and I am encouraged by the way Be manages it. I can still learn a lot from you as a beginner.
Be explains it better than I ever could, but it’s basically the idea that you can determine in which direction a hold is best held from if you imagined how water would pour out of it. Where the water pours from is the direction you would ideally grab it from!
@@hannahmorrisbouldering ahh i was hoping it was some sort of body trick. for instance, keep your body from being wet and you will be properly balanced or something. oh well.

As someone approaching my year anni of climbing I'll just never understand why men have their shirts off in gyms. As someone who has gone to regular gyms for the past 20 years where such would be unheard of and seen as completely douchy.
The challenge of paying attention to the Coach Be's advice while a fairy climbs up in the background at 15:40
The real star of this weeks episode 😅
Stag-do guest appearance 🎉
I must try this technique next time.
Came looking for this exact comment 😂
It's so fun to watch them troubleshoot through the yellow route. I like seeing something that is not easy for advanced climbers.
It was super interesting to watch them figure it out from behind the camera - strong scenes! 😍
@@hannahmorrisbouldering Something I really appreciated was that they both explained what they were trying and why their were doing it (ex: wide base with feet, angled hold with water tipping out of bucket, etc).
It was quite a headache
i love watching these as a V3-V5 climber, getting hyped, then not even being able to start the yellow routes 🤣
Hahah meeeee toooo, but it’s fun to try the first moves 🥲. Tough yellow set this time around too!
Yeaaah give ‘em a go
The contrast between Be's first and last attempts on the last boulder was amazing. The final version was just so smooth and beautiful.
Did anyone else notice the person wearing the fairy wings and tutu at 15:50?? Lol.
Love ur channel!!!

@hannahmorrisbouldering yes I did enjoy watching it - makes me want to go send some projects in the gym now! ☺️
Love this video format! It would be awesome to see you do this with a dynamic climber who climbs around your level too
Really glad you liked it. It’s always fun seeing comparisons between different styles and approaches, I’ll think of ways to bring it out on the channel more 😁
Watching Be climb is always sooo satisfying!
Like a ballerina huh! So smooth 🤗
Wayyy too smooth
Her always making things easier with the flags is so satisfying to watch
It was amazing to see a shorter climber being so powerful! Love Be's arms 😍😍 definitely goals
I love the videos with coach Be, amazing energy and very informative
Glad you like them, we love having Be on the channel 🤩
YES !!! Love to see Be again !! This was so much fun to watch ! Actually really cool to see how she uses all her technique magic while under pressure !

She’s got movement NAILED
Be should have her own youtube channel!
Be has such a beautiful climbing style. Absolutely graceful
For the record Bee has climbed V11 outside.

Tall climbers are often able to neutralize balance by reaching and grabbing the next hold before moving. While shorter climbers have to learn to climb balanced because they don’t have that advantage.
That’s a cool shout. It actually explains why I always feel like I’m snatching at holds - I just try to grab them as soon as they’re in reach 😅

@@mattswain552 yeah, just as a short climber I’ll never feel sorry for tall guys 😂😂😂😂….
Adam Ondra is like 6’2
Falling off laughing, also an important lesson!
Hahah this is very true!!
I love all your videos with Be! Really enjoyed this one :)
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching
Ain’t no one gonna mention my guy in the back climbing with a fairy costume on, Dudes a straight legend
Could you do the same format but with the rout planner in the background to say how they envisaged it being solved?
Coach Be after doing some of the gnarliest looking shit Ive ever seen: "goodness me thats hard work"
I really like watching Be climb, it's like you get insight into her brain.
23:20 DAMN is he strong at dyno's. You can't see this level of confidence in any of his other climbing
15:33 this guy's suit is a surprise🤣
I always boulder with my brother, I'm 6'1 and he's 6'2 (his "ape factor" is 1 inch larger then mine) we both weigh the same and we couldn't be more different when it comes to styles. I'm a static climber and he's a dynamic climber. We always have to find a work around to each others solutions
It’s definitely a helpful way to try different moves and work weaknesses
😁and a lot of discussion
we need more Nathan on the channel
Agree! I’ll see what I can do ✨

It does feel like it evens out.
It’s such a paradox that on some moves Be makes the reach look easier - but I guess it’s to do a lot with hips like you say.
if i was doing it - yellow V7 i would go from the yellow boulder to the yellow one on top, move my foot to the nearest colour and then reach to the red one. but that is just my opinion
4:12 swear down nathan sounds like hes saying come on bitch 😂
Noooooooo 👀💀
@@hannahmorrisbouldering hahaha...then what did he say?!?
Be is simply amazing
Be's muscle definition is soo impressive and amazing
25:20 what a cool move
This was a great video, really enjoyed it :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
On the second yellow i think you could figure four the campus
Coach Be is #1
Queen of coaches 😍
Learn so much from these thanks so much 🙏🏿 😊
You’re very welcome!
Thank you very much for your videos. Very helpful. My climbing partner is also taller and I am encouraged by the way Be manages it. I can still learn a lot from you as a beginner.

Hi Hannah i noticed you changed the thumbnail on this vid is there any specific reason like is it a way to get ranked better in the algorithm
You’d be amazed how much the click through rate changes with a different picture!

B for beast. So strong and skillful.
Ain’t that the truth!!! ☺️
can you explain the "bucket" theory? Are you saying don't let the water fall on you? @16:18

can someone pls tell me where be's pants are from
They’re 3rd Rock - I believe they’re the Margo pant ☺️
what are bea's trousers? I want some
They’re 3rd Rock Margos ☺️
The problematic yellow v7 I believe, wouldn’t a rose move be useful in that position rather than a campus?
I think Be and Nathan did put some time into it that way, but the feet looked really difficult to keep on! Super cool move! 🤗
Which gym is this? :)
It’s the Depot in Sheffield 🥰
Thanks! Great video 😊 x
Yall didnt post be’s info
Be unfortunately had her IG hacked so she’s not on social media, but you can find her coaching website linked! ☺️

Maybe there will be a new one at some point?
