14:07 Man this heel hook is so impressive, being already that compressed and having the hip mobility to place that heel in. Really inspiring, gonna go stretch now haha
I just feelt super chill and enganged and the same time watching this. From all of theese climbing colabs, when people set routes for eachother like this, i think this the best one(for the situation(trying hard, geting content, engaged YT-climbers etc.)). It looks like your have relly fun, are very interested in solving the thing and is at just the right level of "cruxiness" for it so that its not so hard so that one, or both of you, get the look and feeling of having given up. Perfect!
It been some time since those two strong boys combined forces to make such a cool video. Sick moves, especially the leg kick and landing while at the same time catching the hold that was previously stepped to create the momentum for the jump.
This channel is in a fucking golden age right now. Bravo all three of you. True OG squad right there. Can't wait for the next one Eric! I've rarely felt so inspired!
I usually enjoy these Videos and this one is a banger as well but can you elaborate on why you try to narrate the Video as such that Nikken sets the boulder in the moment? From what I can tell in the Video the Boulder has been set on the wall before, as most holds have white Setting markings that line up perfectly. Dont get me wrong the intel he gives into the decision making is really great, but could it not be achieved differently?
When we start shooting, the boulder is set in the moment. I know nothing before I start filming, Nikken spends a few hours doing a draft he's happy with and then we are ready to start filming. He then shares insight of the boulder and moves, hold selection and the idea to me and all of you :) There are always going to be tweaks when you set a custom boulder, So over many years of filming setting videos, this is the best and most efficient way of filming a video.
Good to be back boys
why did you leave 😢
Glad to have you on multiple channels now. :)
Good to see you Emil!
Ahhh your back bro! Still watch your channel but EKB is the classic
Feels so classic with the old crew together. Love having Emil in videos. Also love any Nikken setting video
Always love seeing Emil and Nikken try hard together 💪
It feels like absolutely forever since we've seen Emil in a video. So excited for this one! The band is back!
I really like about your editing style that you never know which try is gonna be the send. Makes it some much more interesting to watch

So happy to see some of the OG crew together again!!
Thanks for all the hard work yall put into these videos! Makes my day every time.
Thank you for watching and supporting us :)
Yaay great to have Emil back on the channel✌ Been looking forward to this:)
Superb video. Nikken and Emile back together. Incredible setting and climbing. Brilliant production and Music aswell. Thanks all 👍
Loved seeing the OG group. Music is great throughout, adds to the drama. It’s like “chef’s table” but, “the climber’s wall” or something haha.
Clicked on that Eric Karlsson notif faster than anything
Love to see it! ;D
Classic Emil and Nikken session. I am here for it!
Feel like Nikken's route setting has really gotten better since the European Cup (if this was not recorded before of course)
He's been so much more motivated since then for sure, so it's cool that you can see that :)
Absolutely loved that. Immediate flashback feeling ;) Great custom-tailored boulder, edit/music on point and most of all two wildly strong climbers👌.
Amazing to see Emil back on the channel, love his energy! And another great set by Nikken

So good to see Emil back! and what a monster boulder Nikken has created for him.
Amazing to see Emil back on the channel! Such a humble guy
Nikken and Emil need to do a Wolfgang Güllich and Kurt Albert handshake impression.
Just like the old days 😍
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasss
Couldnt wait for Emil to come back on here. What a sick boulder too
That last move is fire. It's like 4 steps to get 2 hands moved, but all steps need to be timed well for them to work.
Great to have the big man back again 🙌

Ive missed the vids together, great to see them!!
This channel is in a fucking golden age right now. Bravo all three of you. True OG squad right there.
Can't wait for the next one Eric! I've rarely felt so inspired!
That green pinch hold series looks amazing
Nikken is an absolute savage! 🤯
Dude is strong as an OX and sets climbs that look like art, and are still fun despite being NAILS! 💪🏻🤙🏻
Nice reunion. Been watching you guys for years
WOOOO EMILS BACK BABY
Nikken Emil Duo is just amazing
I just smiled throught the whole video, thank you❤
love you Nikken!
Am i the only one who teared up at that old school pic?
@EmilAbrahamsson Respect for wearing Rock Lee shirt. Ultimate work hard character!!!
Amazing Video, sick boulder, great guys!
Your skill level is what I'm thriving for
Dang, them boys strong. And what a sick boulder.
Love love love a oldskool routesetting sesh but also back to the weird music like a couple of years back 😅 the violins were awesome though
Omg, I just love intro music! What a banger
Superb film Eric, congrats
Dab police has been notified for touching the green hold on the arete. How do you plead?
Fucking awesome seeing u guys climb together!
Emil is definitly taking French lessons! Allez boss!
Long live the OG crew!
The crew is back together 🥹🥹
This Is Epic!!! Thanks for the Video 💙💙💙
sooo sick and diverse boulder
Emil is such a good climber.
god that feels good to see
Sick Tracks in this one!
Great to see Emil back o here again, top video! What camera were you using for this?
Sony A7SIII
Was waiting for Thor to come through with some sick brushing vibes 😂
finally he is back!
That dyno is mega
ok so hold on a minute, what are screw holes for on the walls if you can just screw the hold anywhere on the wall anyway?
If return of the sleepwalker is v17 then what is return of the sloper king v20?
Had to pause the video at 11:03 after what Emil said
Sick boulder 👌
"What grade? 8a/8a+?" Definitely would've been a Mooney-board 6b at 2019 k2
DAAAAAB!!! @Emil
Hypeness...engage
Instant classic
Out of the blue

Weird way to spell sloper daddy in the intro there
where to try the route ? :)
Wot a treat
Serious question: What does Commiyat means? And what language is that?
Swedish, means come on :)
Wait, I need to know how get that Rock Lee t shirt
Emil made it him self :)
Well, he should make more and sell them (:
Ok I need to know what that shirt is that Emil is wearing
He made it him self, I believe there is 2 in existence :D
which pants are those
North Face, not sure about the name of the model
Swag
first in Mexicooo
❤
First in Aus
First in the world ;D
❤ Even better 😂
first!
Are we just going to pretend that Emil didn’t dab like crazy on the last move on the send go?
I wouldnt call myself a "8a climber" only because i did one once. Thats a bit delusional dont you think
