awesome video, but pls practice more slab, it will also help you on other styles
@uncleiso 2 сағат бұрын
Haha I actually really enjoy slab, I was joking about avoiding it. If I wasn't doing this challenge I def would have spent more time practicing them. It's 100% the hardest form of climbing in my opinion. I always feel like I've gained the most when I send a hard slab

ay nice burn on the v8. I’d recommend swapping the feet before going for that middle move and flagging the left. Also practice the last move a LOT it’s the crux. Nice vid tho🐐
@uncleiso 23 күн бұрын
Ah, when I was first trying this I was foot swapping and trying to match on the dualtex sloper and couldn't get it, but I'll try the foot swap into the volume. I've heard the final move is hard but for it to be the crux has me dead cause this move feels like the crux hahaha

What do you think of the rubber on the Rave's ? I've heard so many mixed reviews
@uncleiso Ай бұрын
I like the raves especially as a training shoe. The rubber is pretty durable. Very stiff in the beginning but they loosen over time. I think the biggest drawback is the lack of toe rubber specifically for bouldering cause toe hooking is kinda cooked in them, especially if you’re doing toe catches, but I think these are great for ropes or general bouldering sessions. Not necessarily a performance shoe imo but overall a solid shoe

@guustvanuden2968 2 ай бұрын
yes board climbs are harder than the gym, BUT its just as hard as outside in my opinion. although you have to keep in mind, like what you said, its not a gage on how good of a climber you are, its ONE style and you can be good at it or not. Thats also why it probably feels sandagged because only outside climbers, climbers who train hard and good boardclimbers make these boulders on the boards.
@uncleiso 2 ай бұрын
All valid. I also think its really only the lower grades that are sandbagged and it starts to even out above v5. I also think that there's an adjustment period to the board similarly to the adjustment period outdoors. If you've only done gym climbing then the board is going to feel like a completely different beast just as you would experience outside, but after you do it enough times, they both start to feel more familiar and the grades make a bit more sense
@autumn_k 3 ай бұрын
When I started climbing, it was common for gyms to only have spray walls for bouldering-no tape, no colour-blocked problems, no grades. We assigned our own grades based on how hard similar moves felt outside. I think contemporary board climbing still grades in that tradition. But for commercial gyms, I don't know if that grading method makes much sense. That grade progression can be harsh and discouraging, especially for new climbers. Plastic is different from rock. Route-setting has evolved beyond smaller holds, nastier slopes/ pinches, and burlier moves. Indoor climbing has evolved beyond training for outside. Point being, I think it's okay if we accept bouldering grades lack universality. I get once we assign a number to something, we want that number to represent a standard, but it's questionable if that's ever been the case with bouldering grades. Especially now, gyms grade by their own standard. Even outside areas vary from one another. Board climbing is its own thing. Comp style is its own thing. It's okay if we let go of the whole "I'm a V6 climber" mindset, or at least accept it's a little more relative than it maybe once was.
@uncleiso 3 ай бұрын
Big facts. I’m definitely in the camp of grading is relative and very dependent on the context. I think some people like having authority over others which is why they feel so strongly about grading being definitive and universal

@deci 3 ай бұрын
The consensus grading doesn't always work as intended because people climb at different angles and are too lazy to change the grade. This is specially true in the lower grades. For example someone sets a v2 at 20 degrees. Then at 30 degrees the concensus is v3. But then you look at 40 and 45 degrees and it's graded v2 again because people just grade it the original grade but don't realize it was set at 20 degrees. This is even more common in gyms that don't have adjustable boards because unless you click the angle button you can't see what angle it was originally set at. (And there's no reason to hit that button if your board is permanent 45 degrees)
@uncleiso 3 ай бұрын
Great point that often gets overlooked. The less variables, the more universal the grading system can be, but boards come with so many variables and user error that it can be very inaccurate.
@babsds0 3 ай бұрын
I think board climbing is just it's own style of climbing. If I spend more time on a board then I feel stronger on the board and worse on general gym setting and vice versa if I spend more time on the set problems.
@uncleiso 3 ай бұрын
Agreed. Since I've been spending so much time on the board lately, I don't feel like I'm progressing that much in the gym. It requires a different mindset completely, even if my body is getting stronger from the board

@lazeavlad 3 ай бұрын
The board is not for recreation, that's why you feel it's sandbagged, when is the last time you climbed straight steep 2d climbing? How do you even grade for someone else, grading is and should be 100% subjective, if people say it's hard than they will grade so and the grade will even but usually someone that say is hard it's either a midget or weak af, so stick to the board, come back to the problems you say that now are hard and see how they are in a year

@uncleiso 3 ай бұрын
Thanks! And I really like these shoes. They're very snug so I feel like I can be very precise with my feet, but they lack toe rubber which makes them hard to use for bouldering imo. I can't really toe hook in them that well and toe dragging causes a lot of distress on the fabric which is a technique I use a lot to help keep me close to the wall especially on slab. I'm split on them being neutral because they're pretty comfy, but it's hard to dig deep on steep overhangs. However, I went top roping the other day and think these might be a perfect shoe for top roping!

Wish my gym had the TB2, only climbed the Kilter. It's super fun for training. I think it's only soft on the most popular ascents, once you scroll down far enough the grading gets way harder.

@uncleiso 3 ай бұрын
Yea if I'm being honest, I don't think I beat the allegations haha, I definitely have more training to do. But I've only been climbing for a year so I don't think that my progress is an average experience either. I personally think of "average" climbers as those who are content with casual climbing, vs athletic climbers being those who train intentionally and continue to push themselves.
