Climbing Every Wall in My Gym - LA Boulders Gym Tour

[@JenniferLangen]

ALSO FORGOT TO MENTION THAT WE HIT 10K!!! THANKS to each and every one of y'all - one of my goals for 2019 was to hit 1,000 subscribers, so to think I hit 10,000 is... kind of overwhelming tbh but YES THANK YOU ALL I SO SO appreciate all of you for hanging out with me here!! :~) Next stop: 7 billion!!

[@martinmullis9743]

Congrats J!!

[@JenniferLangen]

@Ariolimax C. YES OMG you recognized it!!! in the alcove!! lab IS the best

[@NiNa-un7ko]

17 feet are approximately 5,20 m for all my fellow metric system people 😅

[@arkhust6775]

Thank you =)

[@MicrowavedHermione]

Thanks

[@katcurcio3460]

Yes to seeing an overhang progress vid! Struggling so much with overhung climbs and need some inspiration

[@JenniferLangen]

oooooh duly noted!! ugh overhungs are so frustrating but once you flail on them for a lil bit it all starts to kinda come together!

[@mandor955]

what a cool gym! my gym closed recently so seeing this vid really gives me an itch to climb again also congrats on 10k!

[@JenniferLangen]

i'm sorry to hear about your gym closing!! hopefully another opens up near you soon :D

[@willmurrin9344]

Local SoCal climber here. If you ever make way down to the Orange County and want to check out Rockreation, I would be able to guest swipe you in.

[@moonmushi]

Went there for the first time today on my second day of climbing ever and I loved it!

[@papol6092]

The mega-arch definetly looks like something I wanna try. Great video!

[@artisdying]

Why aren't there any Volumes on the wall? This seems to be very restricting in terms of creative routesetting. EDIT: Just spotted some volumes, still looks like far too little in the whole gym.

[@Dan200]

Wasn't expecting to hear my local climbing gym mentioned in this video!! Would you ever visit and do a video at Rainbow Rocket? :)

[@JenniferLangen]

yes!! when i visit in the spring!! i will most definitely climb there, and maybe do a video as well :~)

[@gregrubio8722]

Thank you so much for calling them "boulder problems" and not "rOuTeS". I moved to Northen California a couple years ago, and at least half of the climbers up here call boulders "routes" and it absolutely floors me everytime! It just blows my mind how many new climbers completely disregard the climbing terminology that has evolved to what it is now. Words mean something for a reason. They might as well be saying that they "First Ascent, Onsite, Free Soloed that V5" in the gym. Another example is Freerider on El Cap. Note how it called the V7/8 "boulder problem" on the route, and not the V7/8 "route" on the route. I hope that last example makes it really clear how important it is to use proper terminology when climbing. Sorry for the rant, as I appear to be preaching to the Choir.

[@mattcanoy5353]

Looking forward to checking out LA.B soon 👍. Hollywood boulders is my home gym and I just got around to checking out Cliffs of Id last weekend. One big question though.. How does that gym fare on weekdays / weekends on peak hours?

[@chickenspy1854]

I'm not a regular at LAB but it is one of my favorites! BTW, it was nice meeting you at Cliffs. I was the awkward guy that said hi to you.

[@Blackmystix]

Bruh I'm about to sign up for this place, and your video came up. Good stuff.

[@Garbaz]

Good luck with the grad school application! And always nice to see other gyms. I really like you wall variety you got, the gym I go to is a lot less creatively structured

[@aznnuh]

I’m watching this late but I have to say seein all these walls again .... the nostalgia jumped out !!! May we all come full circle *~*camera does a 360 no scope*~*

[@illparkmusic]

Hey I love your videos! I was thinking about starting a vlog myself and was wondering what video editing software you use?

[@godlyazn08]

What's the song that starts around 6:50? I used to listen to it a lot a whiiiile ago, but I can't recall what it's called

[@Codyyster]

That’s a awesome bouldering gym love the vibe. Great video easy to watch very appealing transitions love it! 👌👽

[@minusseven07]

:0 I climb in Cambridge! I'll try to keep an eye out and say howdy if I see your cousin!

[@boji_03]

Oh man what a place! My gym is like 70% top roping and 30% bouldering so i'm actually using only a small part of the gym. We tried some other gyms around the city (urban climb for my aussie boys) but their floors were like hard springboards and hurt when you fell :( my gym has the softest pads that you can full dyno off the top and still be fine. p.s. you're easily my favourite bouldering youtuber, your videos just have such a good flow and vibe. Congrats on 10k!

[@mattobrien1085]

You climb at bayside? My local too, that said the 30% bouldering is quality. Maybe check la roca and blochaus

[@boji_03]

@@mattobrien1085 Close! I'm talking about Brisbane, I climb at Crank, we have three Urban's here and a few other spots too

[@JenniferLangen]

oh woah, springboards sound like gnarly floors to fall on. and ahh, thank you so much! glad to hear you like the vids :~) it means a lot! :D

[@jujumoney8780]

This channel is going to blow up soon😍

[@hyperfocused3465]

LAB seems dope! I usually just end up going to Cliffs of Id, as it is closer to me, but I will need to check out LAB! Also, Vertigo boulders is pretty fun! I am recovering from dislocating my elbow, so that frustrating progression and climbing lower grades life is very much felt lol. Ordered a monopkt shirt, great designs and all that! Great vid Jenn!

[@JenniferLangen]

you should come out sometime!! i'm sometimes at cliffs though, so def say hello if you see me! verdigo is also really fun, i love their lil workout area! and AHHH SO STOKED to hear you ordered a shirt! jackelyn would be so happy to hear that :D

[@hyperfocused3465]

@@JenniferLangen I'll get out there soon enough! I will definitely say hello! I can never tell if it would be weird or not, but now I will! Course! They are dope designs, I got the basic one with the text at the bottom of the shirt!

[@m_a_d_12]

Get on that steep stuff Jenn! Will only help your climbing :)

[@JenniferLangen]

hehe i'm trying to incorporate it more and more!

[@eyebrowsGreg]

God this gym is so nice I wish we had stuff like this where I'm from

[@jacoboblanco1555]

Jelly of your gym. I love the wall colour scheme.

[@NathanBetts]

Looks rad! Congrats on your channel hitting 10k!

[@glbunzy2214]

I love ur videos so much. You deserve millions of subs. I love the music and the quality of ur gids

[@JenniferLangen]

ahhh if i had even close to one million i wouldn't know what to do with myself. thanks so much! :D

[@khadijadavis6372]

I'm a novice climber that just fell in love with bouldering! I'm not the best but it doesn't matter because its a challenge against myself. I love your videos and would love to learn more technique for novice climbers from you. Also I just sent my fist v2 today and I'm living for it! Thanks for the Inspo!

[@JenniferLangen]

ahhh congrats!!!! i remember my first v2, it felt amazing!! you'll be crushing v4 before you know it :~) and good to know! i'll def try to make more videos aimed at novice climbers - i'm so glad that you started bouldering and are really enjoying it!! best of luck on your climbing journey, you're gonna have such a blast :~) take lots of videos of your progression to look back on!!

[@SherwinLoveB]

do an "I climb with my subscribers episode." :)

[@JenniferLangen]

OKKKKKK I'VE honestly had this thought in the past but didn't think anyone would want to see that! rather, i thought if i set up a meetup that NO ONE would show D: but maybe i can figure something out for the future :D

[@HenglishShogun]

Your new website needs a JenSendsRadio 💚

[@JYSMusic]

I love your videos and will still watch if you aren't uploading as much because of your grad school apps, so no worries! Congrats on the 10k 😃

[@thomasn1590]

Wow this gym is gorgeous!

[@javiermescua2260]

Holy shiiiit that looks like a fun place. My gym is like 1/25 of yours.

[@Anna-yj5jo]

Your edits are so fun!! :)

[@gigiwalker1716]

Dang this place is amazing! I love my gym but there’s like 4 walls lol

[@coasterb1]

Thanks so much for all your beginner to intermediate videos and advice, and congrats on 10k! Would you consider a video about the mental (motivation?) and physical aspects of tricky moves/learning new techniques for climbing? Especially for someone who didn't previously do any sports.

[@JenniferLangen]

ooooh that's an interesting idea! you might have to elaborate a little bit, kind of like how to commit to a move or how to improve your headgame? because i still struggle with that tbh 😭

[@coasterb1]

Original thought was committing to a move. But you seem to be the only climber on here that says much about mindset so one on headgame would be appropriate for your channel.

[@JenniferLangen]

@@coasterb1 oooh ok!! i can think of a couple of things i could say about that! i think rockentry might have just released a video about this, but i'm not sure it was as specific as mental space when committing to a move. i'll definitely think about making a video about that!! thanks for the suggestion :~)

[@humzaashraf321]

Jenn, apply to Boulder for grad school it has great climbing!

[@JenniferLangen]

AHHHH IT'S ON MY LIST!! esp because of all the climbing in the area :D

[@willmurrin9344]

Some of the best.

[@richskater]

Bah, come to Kentucky and climb The Red with us hillbillies.

[@lupindraws]

OMG I CLIMB AT RAINBOW ROCKET!!!! EEEEEEEE!!!! Come visit Cambridge, it's BEAUTIFUL!

[@iREKxREALMZ]

Okay this looks worth the visit, my gym is small and I need some need boulder problems

[@Turtledunkz]

I just came down from Portland to LA and hit this gym up with a friend! The slab wall is very fun :D

[@JenniferLangen]

omg i hope you enjoyed your stay here!! i've only been to portland twice, but i love it there SO much. definitely want to go back in 2020

[@KevintheRhea]

That's an awesome gym! Congrats on 10k!!!

[@Amber-lk4gc]

ugh what a climbing legend

[@JenniferLangen]

tokyo 2020 here i come!!

[@designnclimb]

great video! It makes me want to climb at LAB (I go to Hangar 18).

[@amandajchan]

Wow this gym is huuuge!

[@ABSVabeautifulsunsetvlog]

Awesome video Jenn....I’d like to make videos about climbing here at our gym but I’m worried that the employees would trip and tell me no filming😕....maybe one day I’ll just go for it though. (Made one vídeo before but I literally snuck on my phone and filmed stuff😂)

[@JenniferLangen]

ooof i actually never asked the employees whether i could film, but that's because i had seen other youtubers filming in there as well!! i think so long as you're not bothering anyone, you should be fine! especially if you use your iphone - lots of people just like to film themselves to post on IG anyway :~)

[@rodolfocab7479]

does anyone know if you have to bring your own rock climbing shoes? i might try this place out for a month

[@catsaur]

You don’t, gyms have rental gear including shoes.

[@lunariaflora]

this gym looks amazing

[@sinkitlim8572]

boulder gyms in my country are like about 10% of this gym and yet charge expensive entry fees..... super envious

[@matgof03]

Your gym is so cool, my gym has only about 40-50 boulders but theres routes also tho

[@yishan7841]

your gym is awesome! likely three times bigger than mine XD

[@BeefyBoulders]

“Which is... not cool” 🤣🤣🤣

[@NathanielLeong]

Hey Jenn! I'll be visiting this gym some time between the 17-21! Let's climb together!

[@martinmullis9743]

Damn J, you kept that yellow climb pretty static! Very strong

[@JenniferLangen]

:~)

[@peakyan]

nicely done!

[@pinkorulez]

7:15 is my favorite clip hands down 😂

[@godlyazn08]

what's the song that starts playing at that time?? I'm trying to find it, but i can't ~_~

[@janerikholtter]

Awesome 10K 👊🏻

[@syko3298]

Damn... that's a nice gym. We got a number of climbing gyms in Singapore but they are small and can get packed easily 😩

[@JenniferLangen]

OOH i've always wanted to go to singapore!! and this gym gets packed too, i just always film early in the morning :D but i feel like if the gym were any smaller it would be way too crowded!

[@kenversusryu]

Lol I see me at the background at 6:28. Sneaky.

[@reefleschmeek4226]

We want a barrel's armpit episode

[@andrewahlquist4954]

That gym looks sick 😉

[@JenniferLangen]

ehh it's alright, i work with what i've got

[@SeraphinoII]

4:45 That route is spectacular. Anyway, girl you got stronger damn!

[@JenniferLangen]

:D

[@Jydmd]

My gym is sooooo tiny compared to yours! I'm jealous.

[@JenniferLangen]

AWW maybe it's just a product of living in a big city? and los angeles is pretty close to a lot of outdoor climbing spots in southern california, so lots of people climb here. idk! i'm definitely VERY lucky to be able to climb here!!

[@tysonbrown543]

where r the volumes?

[@alexander.sollie]

What sort of grad school?

[@JenniferLangen]

i'm applying to some neuroscience programs and some biochemistry programs!

[@alexander.sollie]

@@JenniferLangen Cool! In that case I second the CU Boulder recommendation. It's a great place to go to school, but its very hard to leave. :)

[@MrJarastamon]

Howdy.

Na that’s a donut for sure
