6 Climbing Tips Taught by a Pro Climber - Paul Robinson

[@paulrobinson87]

Thank you for climbing out to Colorado training with me! I had so much fun. Can't wait to hang with you guys again soon!

[@rockentry]

It was a pleasure to finally meet you Paul. I appreciate all your help and looking forward to seeing you again too! Much love. I really enjoyed watching Geek Climbers collab video too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZ3NmpR-j8akras

[@ejl74]

You guys Ahmad some good vibes filming together. Hope to see more of you twos soon.

[@driklol]

Paul's the man, this was a super fun video to watch. Love hearing all of the tips.

[@alexmedina1708]

that's my home gym!!! it's really cool to see you at here I'm colorado. not the right time of the year for out doors though. great video and thank you for your incredible content

[@fmoraes]

I love your videos showing those small adjustments. Please have more of them in the future and keep up the great content you produce.

"Slabs are SO HARD" She said just before she flashes a V9 slab.

[@lordmumur8838]

If see her shows how she is was the point of the video I was subscribed to her channel.

Paul Robinson is such a supportive partner, makes me wanna record his voice just to get a little of that "gooood, very good" vibes while I'm climbing ! 😂 Awesome video as always

[@JorisSchweppe]

Mixed trough some of my favorite music. That would work

[@lizzy.ellison]

It was so nice to meet you:) thanks for all the positive energy! Can’t wait to climb more soon!

[@rockentry]

It was great meeting you too Liz! You're an amazing climber and person. I Can't wait to climb some non-slab problems with you hehehe Thank you!

[@alexmedina1708]

it's nice to see you on this channel. I really hope to see more content from you. your an amazing climber lizzie

[@chrominox]

That V9 was ridiculous and you made it look like it was easy, good job!

[@slavadabadoo]

Was super thrilled w the Lizzy cameo! What a nice surprise. You smashed that slab so hard, Lizzy! Reeeal strong climber

[@autumneagle]

That V9 you did was so cool to watch

[@davidsmart3338]

Paul’s shoes remind of of last weekend at my gym. I gave it my all to finally send a project I’ve been working on. Then one of the employees climbed the same route in untied Vans high tops

[@AlxSupreme]

I loved Geek Climber's surprise cameo!

[@catherinevalve3065]

I love that Lizzy just jumps in out of nowhere like HI GUYS CAN I CLIMB THIS PLS THANK U and just nails it hahaha

[@mattbeharry]

Paul is such a good instructor - clear and concise explanations with the REASON you do a certain thing. Flag this b/c X. Train 1 portion of the problem b/c Y. etc. Often instructors tell you WHAT to do, with out telling you the WHY. You need to know the WHY in order to properly apply it to other problems. Great stuff. Learned a lot.

[@leoingson]

Also he limits himself on how much to explain at once, nice.

[@PeterSodhi]

That footwork from Lizzie was a lesson by itself I learned a lot...

[@Rutgerverboom]

Her hip flexibility really helped with the V9 too!

[@ratherboring6725]

Lizzy is a beast!

[@rockentry]

She's so strong!

[@ccolagio_]

the time and attention to detail that you put into editing is second to none dude. the little extras like circling flags and putting up split screens - it makes the info come out so much more naturally. keep it up man. love your edits. new subscriber, earned for sure.

[@saskiaahaaha3464]

I wanna have my own personal Paul standing behind me saying 'good! Very good! Well done! Good first effort!' all day when I work really hard and deserve it.

lizzy is a beast! awesome squad you had out there today. Love your vids rockentry!

[@chevaleus1]

I'm not a climber or anything but how that girl climbed the blue one was really impressive to me, it was fluid and she made it look so easy.. damnn!

[@UpInFlam3z]

4:01 Paul: You're a V10 climber. Oswaldo: No I'm not! Crazy how much you've improved. Congrats on sending your first outdoor V10 this year.

[@weisingerb]

i want to say thank you for your videos that you put out. i am just under a month into climbing. Your videos help me out so much.

[@rockentry]

Brent W Happy to help and good luck on your climbing journey!

[@cahoy7]

Ozzy... seeing you failing multiple times like the rest of us, keep trying, and finally got it, that's amazing. Thanks for sharing!! inspiring!

[@rockentry]

Cahyo Primawidodo Thanks man, really glad I at least got that one move!

[@jonmurua]

Great tips! The move you struggled with and Lizzy flashed, Lizzy used the opposite hand. I think you can do it ;) Block one hand being high up and just move the other hand instead of doing a dynamic move when the holds are small - this will be useful.

[@rmblankenburgh25]

This video is absolutely instructive, awesome. You guys know how to get climbing technique tips across in a most vivid and visual way. Videos like this help a great deal in improving my climbing. Thanks for sharing.

[@meganwong9508]

Awesome collabs! I thought the insight on the last yellow climb was really interesting -- just to see this seemingly dynamic move get broken down into a more static but still super powerful move. I've definitely had problems where I've thrown myself at holds a bit too aggressively, when locking off and just hitting it would have been much easier. Also, Lizzy is awesome! I love how she climbs and watching her overall movement is so, so cool! Thanks as always for the vids!

[@jonkrause6714]

So many good tips! 🙏 Fun to watch all of it. I got 1 pro tip down - #3: “brush” (brushing”; I use that to limit my excuses and to genuinely warm me up as well as stay warm-plus good etiquette. Your facial reaction to the “yellow” problem before starting-🤣 Absolute panic and nervous excitement - “oh shiiiiiiiznit”. Tip #6 - makes so much sense. Simple control (static) vs uncontrolled movement to grab minuscule hold. Lizzy is an agile torque generator of power and purposeful movement! 💪💪 Funny watching Paul in is flat sole shoes on tip #6 - thought he might just campus😝 Now to Geekclimb vid.👍

[@simonhartl460]

Man, Robinson is such a kind and chill dude. Great climber. Superb video. Great colab with geek too

[@morganfbradley]

Awesome! I'm a student at CU and on the university climbing team and so Evo is my home gym. So cool to watch you try some of those boulders! That blue one was heinous, those start moves were so painful and the feet were so bad! That yellow was so tough too, getting those little slots were such accuracy moves. Not sure if you got a chance to try the red crimpy one around the corner from the yellow but that's the current project. Awesome video!

[@deborahcustance2754]

That was really great! I loved the break down of the precise hold needed on the last route. The difference between failure and success is so subtle. Thanks for another inspiring vid.

[@blakemartin9054]

Paul is such a great and gentle teacher. hope to meet with him sometime in the future.

[@davidalejandrocc]

[@rockentry]

Brent Tsuji Glad you enjoyed it amigo!

[@jessicamoon5843]

This was a great video. You're an amazing sport and Paul is so supportive.

[@NathanBetts]

So good to have slab tips for a change! I definitely focus way too much on overhang - but it feels so hard to 'train' slab, it's like it's skill based rather than strength based.

[@logiconabstractions6596]

LIz made that V9 slab look like a walk up a flight of stairs!

[@19kia90]

Watching Lizzy just casually flash that V9 is everything.

[@christinegerard4974]

So so so interesting ! Thank you so much !

[@lukevenable356]

Hey Oswaldo, I love your videos. Keep it up! I had an idea for future videos. What would you think about just setting up a camera every time you boulder at the gym and uploading them for us to watch? As in, no commentary or special editing necessary, just raw footage of you climbing. I find it really helpful to watch videos like that so I can pause it, try to figure out what move I would make next in that situation, then un-pausing to see what you do. Unfortunately there just aren't that many videos of the sort on youtube (outside of professional bouldering competitions which are so beyond my skill level that they're not particularly helpful). This would also allow you to produce more content without spending tons of time editing. Let me know what you think!

[@trigeektk]

Those new Nike climbing shoes look sick!

[@Bhamlunker]

what an awesome video....so cool to see his tips help you in real time, and that woman (sorry, missed her name) was just amazing to watch

[@furiousmat]

I guess it's random but the trick I found to avoid getting impaired by pumped forearms early in the session is to keep my arms above my head for some time. I realized that when I was doing longer routes in top rope. Because the routes are longer I would almost always get pumped by the end of it. To "unpump" my arms after one climb what i would do is lean against a wall, facing the wall, with my arms stretched out towards the ceiling (just using the wall to support my arms so I don't actually get tired just keeping my hands above my head... Stay like this a minute or two. I felt like this naturally drained my arms and then I didn't feel as pumped, if at all.

[@petermozuraitis5219]

5:32 Warm up with, and actively train, cossack squats and frog pose ! I'm 6 2' with long legs and having flexibile hips is one of my climbing secret weapons

Yo, do you live near Lizzy? Didn't expect that cameo, haha. Paul is so cool doing videos with KZbinrs like you and Geek Climber! EDIT: Also, lmao at Lizzy throwing shade on the Phantoms! Those shoes were supposed to come out like over a year ago, rip.

[@rockentry]

Alex Chung I visited them in Colorado I’m located in Los Angeles. Omg was it cold out there! lol I really appreciate Paul for sharing such amazing technique with us all and it was a pleasure climbing with Lizzy too! She’s so strong and an amazing person too! Thank you! More to come ;)

[@SufferingAddict88]

thank you so much for your videos, I feel like I'm already improving just by watching ;D

Glad you're improving and keep at it! ;)

Hey thanks for the amazing tips! I love your channel and I just sent my first 12a! Earned yourself a sub.

[@BIGBORE375HH]

Thanks for these videos.

[@petersvetlik1907]

Nice one blue boulder, sometimes is more about feeling than about the number on tag.. and then you'll be surprise.

[@bizmonkey007]

I think if he didn’t look at the tag and just climbed it, he would’ve done far better; he’s a good climber. What I hate about indoor climbing versus outdoor is that people can get too intimidated by the rating on the wall, and let it get in their head.

[@pert4361]

Duddeeee my favourite boulderer! 🤙🏼 And Paul Robinson! Haha jokes aside, he's my favourite pro!

[@stargazer8465]

V9 first go by Lizzy!! Woah, I am soo impressed ahah

[@dimitris4046]

Am I really the only one playing back this video to 0:10 to check whether it was you leaving a palm of chalk on Paul's right shoulder? 🤣

[@ejl74]

Wow what a treat!thanks Ozzy!

[@shawnjohnson482]

More Paul Robinson content please!!

[@fakes222]

Very helpfull video and awesome people thanks

[@ABSVabeautifulsunsetvlog]

Maybe it would help to always focus more on the feet and balancing. I think that sometimes guys depend on upper body strength and create a deficit in their footwork when the holds aren’t large enough to pull on. I’ve noticed that people who are flexible and really focus on balance over strength are much better climbers. So yeah, just my two cents....but great video oswaldo...✌🏽😎

[@skitza95]

love rockentry!!

[@janellabaxter3396]

Oswaldo, I have a fear of slab walls for some reason. I think it's because I'm afraid to scrape against the wall. I will get half way or more up a route and then quit because of anxiety. Any suggestions?

[@rockentry]

I’ve had the same issue before and I still do depending how high the wall is. What’s helped me is to build up my confidence when it comes to foot work and body positioning. In my situation the fear came because I didn’t trust doing certain moves or placing my foot on small foot holds, the more I work on these the more confident I get on the wall. Also, practicing some falls help. This way you are familiar with falling and there won’t be any surprises. Practice falling in different heights and work your way up from there. Hope this helps!

[@jrblackify]

Wait, so Paul, Lizzy, rockentry and geekclimber all climb at Evo? It's like a mile from my house (but I climb at G1 which is a bit closer).

[@rockentry]

Ajr josephson Love your training area! So much goodness.

[@limnostiger9240]

She like some sort of Amazon/ Greek god. What a weapon

[@sparks444]

Climbing logic: chalk on the hand increases friction. Chalk on the hold decreases friction. This doesnt make a lot sense to me.

[@timnergaard3831]

Is this Lizzy's first collab?

[@rockentry]

I'm not sure. But, what I do know is that she's back on youtube and excited about it!

[@jordantaylor3907]

You rock oswaldo!!

[@maxpower5499]

You need to get a camera with built in stabilization or use a gimbal, the camera shake is very amateur. Aside from that love your vids.

[@Gunr135]

paul seems so nice

[@vetzrah4437]

[@Marauder1981]

One pretty banal thing: get yourself a pair of 3/4 trousers. The trousers you´re wearing are limiting your mobility.
