      Hi! I have hypermobility and EDS too! I’d recommend rope climbing to practice tricky holds whilst feeling somewhat safer. I understand with EDS that it’s an added risk of not controlling your landing as much when you fall because our joints dont have the support from our lax ligaments. I had a bad fall and dislocated my collarbone only 4 months into bouldering. I’m only climbing v4 on boulders a year in but getting comfortable jumping and always considering your downclimb helps me overcome my anxieties whilst rope helps me build skill. If you’re ever in Manchester i’d be happy to climb with you!

      @@yourneighborwiththecutedog thank you so much for this comment! I watched a lot of videos on falling when I first started and have fallen from the top of the wall a few times. So far so good, touch wood, minus slightly aggravating my hip one time, but it does worry me and I do sometimes slip actually climbing down if there aren't good down climbs (so some routes I don't attempt because of this). It's more the shock in the moment of slipping and risk of dislocating and being put out of climbing for good. I'd love to do parkour, just never thought it would be suitable, but actually learning to fall in a class is a great suggestion I hadn't thought of, thank you! I am generally just a scaredy cat though, I can't fully blame EDS 😅 -Soph

    The side-by-side comparisons are so immensely useful. I’m new to climbing, so a lot of the vocabulary and discussions are still hard to follow, and it’s difficult to remember exactly what happened in the “bad” attempts when I see the successful ones. Having the videos side by side, describing precisely what changed, makes it a lot easier to understand what I should be learning.

      My local gym is basically a giant spray wall with 20 or so problems at each grade and it only gets reset once a year. It really shifts your mindset toward enjoying the process of projecting or coming up with new climbs yourself, over the novelty of new climbs at a level you’re comfortable with.

    I'd really love to see a video like this where the next grade climber gives tips before Louie. Let the V3-4 climber coach the V1-2 before Louie steps in. I found for me personally, (V4-5 climber) I learn more applicable things from a V5-7 climber than those who climber higher grades.
    Not everyone is a coach or good at explaining things, but many people just above my grade seem to see the mistakes they recognized themselves making in my climbing. I don't have much to say to someone who climbs V0-2 other than climb more, trust your feet, get comfortable falling in a controlled manor and expect to do so often. But for a V3 climber I have much more to say!
    Body positioning improvement, how to get more out of crimps without upping your finger strength directly, smearing the feet is sometimes better than holds in bad spots, flagging and rolling over onto feet, the mentality of dynamic climbing, the list goes on and on. I recognize having a V10+ climber weigh in is hugely beneficial, especially one who is a good coach! But sometimes it's helpful for me to talk to someone a bit better and see if the mistakes I make are fresher in their heads.
    One tip I just recently got from a crusher was super helpful so I'll share it. On slab, being close to the wall is always naturally assumed. But sometimes allowing yourself to lean back puts more weight into your feet and changes your angle, which can make a bad foot feel better!

    • @HyperClimbers
      @HyperClimbers 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's funny because as a V1/2 climbing I can often spot what Joe (V5/6) could try but can't see it for myself, but that's often the way I think! Hard to tell when you're up there 😅 that's why climbing with someone better than you is so great too

    • @tyrant7244
      @tyrant7244 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Could you elaborate specifically on the "get more out of crimps without upping finger strength" and especially "rolling over onto feet"
      I'm a V3 entering V4 climber, and I'm familiar with most of these terms and practicing more on body positioning and flagging, but rolling over onto feet is a new term for me that I'm curious to know more about.

    • @merkasable
      @merkasable 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      ​@@tyrant7244Not sure if you still want to know, but the rolling over feet thing is wat the V1-V2 climber had to do in the video. It is putting your foot on a hold and then activating your hips so you get your point of gravity above your foot. In the video the V1-V2 climber does it when she is trying the boulder after the coach showed her the beta. And getting more out of crimps without more strength is a bit more difficult to explain, but it revolves around positioning your body at the side of where you are crimping from and more important, finding a position where you are quite balanced(you dont have to keep yourself from turning etc.), so you do not need to pull so hard. I haven't tried them myself, but Louis has a video where he gives 3 warmup routines to do which will teach you all these things😁 I am planning to incorporate them myself as a V5 climber because I still have a lot to learn in all these regards haha.

      The main thing these videos show is just how helpful coaching or just projecting with other and especially people that are better than you can be to send climbs you might not have otherwise. (I say can be cause I've met some people who do not know how to help others with their climbing what so ever lol, we all have different strengths). Having someone there to explore different beta with and reflect on what you could do differently helps me so much, even just having someone motivate you to keep trying can really help and these videos to me are mostly an example of that.

    This video mentions both being open to other options, but also not letting other people tell you your options is not the best even though it feels like the best one for you. Two things I've been experiencing a lot recently, where for me as a short climber often people will tell me there beta is easier, where it really isn't for me and I have to respectfully tell them to get their ego away (cause some people really insist they know better), but I also will often just try the same thing expecting a different result instead of stepping back and exploring other options

    I thought one of the best tips was the brushing of the holds by Louie. Loved the episode. Catalyst should do an Eric Carlson type series with these climbers along with Louie . Just climbers climbing and having fun.😊

    a climber with EDS could have potentially benefited from a refresher on how to fall. like, the best way to land that protects your joints from potentially overextending. a ground fall for someone with EDS is very different than a ground fall for someone without it. its no wonder they were hesitant.

    • @HyperClimbers
      @HyperClimbers 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank you, it definitely makes me more wary, especially if there aren't great downclimbs. I watched a lot of videos on safe falling and so far so good, touch wood, but very conscious one bad landing and something could dislocate and potentially end my climbing 'career'

      Same - started at 50 with my sons. Been doing it 14 months now. Even for their sake I wish we'd started earlier (21 and 17). Finger strength progress is slow for me vs my sons and my flexibility isn't great, but everything else is surprisingly ok - roughly V4 now (youngest son is V6).

      I'm just about to be 60 and boulder twice a week (started aged 21.) You all have many many years ahead of you. Don't worry about starting later in life as you can still have a fantastic time for a long time yet.

    V7-V8 did you try a right heel hook to match your right hand? Might be totally off bit seemed doable from here to reach the upper hand easily with the heel.

    My brother took me bouldering last week first time. I had a blast but found once I got so far up the wall I came down as I was fearful of getting high up. I want to pursue bouldering as a hobby as a fun way to build strength. If I just kept practicing would I deal with the height better? Any tips for a complete beginner on not only getting over the height issue but building the skill to be able to complete my first wall climb

  • @HourRomanticist

    Any tips for strengthening arms and rehab training for tendonitis? Or to prevent tendonitis for beginners. Ive noticed that if I take a couple days off, im basically fine on AB routes, but if I do strenuous bouldering, it flares up. This has left me basically unable to boulder comfortably and I find it not worth it.

    • @HyperClimbers
      @HyperClimbers 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I've been climbing about 6 months and had my elbows go after a couple as I was just climbing too much. The main thing that helped was rest. Not complete but a week between climbs, then two weeks, stopping as soon as they hurt and also stretches (if you look up climber/golf elbow you'll see pictures, hard to explain here). After doing all that I was back to bouldering 3/4x a week within a month or two. It's hard not to climb but has to be done sadly. -Soph (from the video!) 😄

  • @ComputerManDanMiller
    @ComputerManDanMiller 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    By far the most obvious thing with almost all the climbers are that they are barely using their legs at all. They place their feet but aren't driving through them and weighting them nearly as much as they could.

    • @HyperClimbers
      @HyperClimbers 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Definitely a problem of mine! I don't trust my feet and as silly as it sounds I just forget about using leg muscles 😅 my partner is constantly saying JUST STAND UP

    @josvandenbroek5014 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Do you have any tips for someone who has fallen and suffered serious injuries? I had a nasty fall last year and tore my ankle ligaments in both ankles at the same time. I haven't bouldered for six months to give my ankles a rest. But nowadays I climb with a lot of fear of falling. In addition, I have a weak shoulder that easily dislocates, so I do not dare to make some powerful moves with that arm. I feel like I’m stuck at 6A/6A+, but I think I’ve got the strength to climb 6B or even higher with enough motivation and some time.
