A no-hands rest on an 8C+/V16 || Story of 3 worlds

After I did story of two worlds I moved over to the lower start, which adds a + to the given 8C grade, making it 8C+/V16. It's long, strenuous and a new project of mine for the coming year(s). In this video I study the moves and try to figure out what I need to improve to be able to climb this boulder!

Heyo everybody! The replica is called “Training for 3 worlds” in the kilterboard app, my nickname is EMPA, there you can find my boulders 😊

[@EggPunch2003]

Lets gooooo more hard outdoor climbing

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

Psyched to hear you’re psyched!

[@BZGumby]

100% agree

[@Theboardbro]

The amount of quality videos coming out lately have been so incredible!!

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

This is the next level in your climbing for sure. Your crazy progression over the past few months has been super inspiring, keep churning out the work!

[@TristanCleveland]

I can't believe how perfect this boulder is for hard, 3-dimensional climbs. Iconic.

[@ksl8483]

It feels good to see Emil have a decent climbing company sponsoring, not some random vpn or skillshare or whatever

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

Cheers mate! I’m psyched a climbing company wants to get involved, and couldn’t be happier that it’s Mad Rock of all brands also

[@colehibbard2851]

Emil is evolving into a sport climber

[@MrThidious]

All I can say is dude, you're an absolute BEAST! Thanks for the upload Emil! ✌️ and ❤️ as always!

[@curiosity9678]

Emil with the fresh psyche! Also the moment I saw that no hands kneebar rest, I knew it was a story of 3 world's!

[@LogicHungerBread]

Absolutely love watching the projecting process! Keep up the good work and congrats on S2W 💪

[@pedrohack2869]

Crazy that Dave established Story of 2 World without the kneebar

[@SnowmansApartment]

Loving these outdoor hard climbing vlogs. Gets me super psyched to go outdoor once i finally can climb again!=)

[@ianpriehs7906]

i just started climbing and seeing emil give his absolute all in these videos has inspired me to go out of my com fort zone while training and climbing, big thanks from the states for the amazing videos emil!

[@jonathanrossddsmhs1271]

Yannick has been on a tear this off season!!! 🔥I saw him climbing at Red River Gorge. 🔥

[@anbeli1691]

Looking forward to every single outdoor video! Cant wait for the next one!

[@garrettkeyser5151]

Super stokeworthy. Watching content like this gets me beyond motivated.

[@duncanfromunderthebridge]

Leave it to Emil to try to break the beta on a V16 problem lol. Gotta love it.

[@sedistikbutnotreally6358]

I’m up at 5am for work, new Emil vid dropping makes it all ok

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

❤

[@nickmartinelli3752]

i cant believe how fast youve been progressing

[@severin2004]

always hyped for your notification, def gonna try the kilter version and fail miserably :P Awsome video thank you so much as always

[@EmileModesitt]

We're so spoiled by all the videos you've been posting 😁but now we're just gonna keep asking for MORE MORE MORE. Sidenote: Can we tell Mad Rock to make a version of the Drone CS without the heel "blade"? I'd like to have one pair with and one pair without!

[@Tort-]

absolutely psyched to see videos like this on the real hard hard

[@antoinehoel3741]

More outdoor content dude, so inspiring !! Have you worked on this project latly ?

[@bullydungeon9631]

Thank you for posting this I needed somthing to get me to the gym

[@nikolaygeorgiev6096]

I feel like nobody is talking about the fact that he is just in shots and it's snowing , i have done that too but big boots still give you warmth

[@andm6847]

You need to tape that kneepad on. Dave Graham i think even uses spray bandage to get it fix on his skin. that's real commitment because say goodbye to your hair.😱

[@KhangLePr0]

Apparently Shawn made that double kneebars seem way easier than it actually is

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

Haha in my opinion he most certainly did yes. To be fair though, post filming when we took the thumbnail-photo I did figure out some details that made it slightly more manageable, still hard though!

[@jt_climbing]

what are the chains and padlocks for at the back of the boulder?

[@lucaa4480]

cause people leave them under the boulders and sometimes they get stolen

[@paigntonskater]

Emil, do all of those crash pads just live there?

[@csommer4492]

Those screams definitely evoke a little Sharma flashback

[@PiotrWojnowski]

You said that The Story of Three Worlds is a long-time project. Which V15s are your following targets? Can you tell us, or is it a secret at this point?

[@TheFilipalberius]

Hey does anybody know of a way to get a hold of the Mad Rock Drone CS in Europe? Been looking for them for a while! :D

[@RossPotts]

@2:11, golden…

[@Rustic.illustration]

dope dude

[@daniel.IMilton]

Shoe question, what's the shape like I still haven't found a brand with a good fit. I have extremely narrow heals then wideish front foot, also what model is it?

[@Vitakraft911]

Do you have any clue when the Drone CS will be available in Europe?

[@hyau23]

Are you sponsored by bjorn borg? What piece of clothing don't you own? 😂

[@elijahbenson4284]

How did you size your Drone CS compared to other shoes, and how much did they stretch during break in? Love your vids, and your explanations of the minute beta changes that you try and their effects!

[@KirstenRietveld]

Mad Rock recommends to go up half a size from your regular Drone. The CS is a bit smaller. I personally wear my drones -0.5 but I don't size them for performance because pain doesn't actually make me climb better hah. -0.5 feels tight but not painful for me, once worn in.

[@PIXEL7atm]

Have you tried the drone 2.0? Think comp is better?

[@AllegraClimbingPsychologist]

Emil you're turning more and more into a route climber! Ditch bouldering and come see me im Linköping and climb Utopia 8c 🤣 (I'm joking, looking forward to seeing you try hard!)

[@goldenzues3106]

Today I realised that "Kom igen" which is always said in your videos means "come on" in Swedish

[@zerzt]

Maybe i missed it, but what is the replica on the kilter board called? I cant find it in the app.

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

Just dropped a pinned comment about it, but it’s Training for 3 worlds 😊

[@zerzt]

@@EmilAbrahamsson awesome, thanks !

[@Pebble_wrestler]

Can you try make a dream time replica!

[@anthonywashkwich7958]

How many stash pads are at this boulder? Lol

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

All of them

[@anthonywashkwich7958]

@@EmilAbrahamsson 😳

[@Fokin_Alexey]

2.11 )))

[@michaf6397]

i can't even do 5c, after 3 months of climbing indoors, and you are doing 8c+ like nothing.

[@Lucroz94]

He's been climbing for 20 years or so. You can't have his level this fast. Climbing is a skill based sport and he has dedicated his whole life to it. Keep climbing and some day you'll do the same !

[@Peoplemag]

Love the vid! Noticed how many pads are up there. Do you guys pack those out every day that you are there, or leave them over night? I just can’t imagine having to haul them out all of them time!

[@mongoose1804]

I love the drones but hate the comp style. Feels like my toes are going to break trying to climb slabs outside, and there is this weird ball in the sole of the shoe that does nothing but cause discomfort. Drone OGs are goated though

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

Oh interesting! For me they’ve been nuts for slabs outdoors. I kind of get that they can feel painful though, cordi had a similar experience. I was gonna ask if you’ve broken them in much, but it sounds like you have? For me they sucked the first 2-3 sessions is why I ask. Since then they’re my every-session-go-to-shoe 😌

[@andrefivethousand]

Agree with Emil. I’ve absolutely loved my comp drones for outdoor, frictiony slab. Still prefer the og drones for vertical sport climbing. But happy to have the comps for the gym and for outdoor slab 👏

[@pietstonie581]

@@EmilAbrahamsson Is there a way to get the new Drone CS in Europe if u are not sponsored by MadRock ? I can only find them on their US webside with no shipping option anywhere outside of the US. I love the OG Drone but the sole always detaches pretty fast from the shoe. All drone users i know had this issue in the past
