The final challenge: You have to wear multiple shirts. Magnus is too overpowered shirtless.

[@spiercevaughn]

That would be hilarious 😂😂

[@iansmith2013]

Great idea actually!

[@erikadavies686]

Genius!

The 100 t shirt challenge but on a v8

[@X3GoldenOfficial]

Best idea I've heard.

[@marjaanchowdhury]

Another advantage about having Marte in the video is she gives accurate suggestions on what the viewers want to see, great video!

[@Claire-xb3vw]

This has the same energy as when people put little socks on cats and suddenly they can't walk right ahaha! Super entertaining, and nice to see Magnus & Marte just vibing together again :-)

I haven't seen Marte climb in a while. She's gotten much better! Also, I loved the patronizing way she says that she thinks "you can do this one." Funny video 😁

[@driklol]

I was just thinking, Man I haven't seen her climb in a while....She's made some major improvements!

[@huaij]

Haha this reminds me of a guide in the Lake District telling me a dude in the pub claimed he could do a route in boxing gloves and roller skates… and apparently actually did it!

[@hotbeefo]

There's a photo somewhere! Might be on UKC

[@rorybryson626]

Yup, Ray McHaffie on Little Chamonix at Shepherd's Crag (father of James McHaffie, one of the UK's best and most prolific climbers). There's also a video from a couple of years ago of Paul Ross repeating the feat at age 80.

[@pseudojap5]

He just glossed over the biggest handicap of all: no chalk

[@Firebuck]

I can't be the only person yelling "chalk the gloves!" at my phone.

[@fordwilliams9451]

“Why don’t you just wear gloves” -every noob climber ever 😂

[@UnStop4ble]

lol thats what i've told my brother plenty times before i got into climbing :DDD

[@fagyu7502]

I mean I wouldn't do via ferrata without cycling gloves but dunno been only doing ,,real" climbing for two months so I can imagine my hands getting battlehardened for it, but rn I attend the climbing gym 1-2 times a week and my hands are completely destroyed every time, just took a longer 6 day break coz I got bleeding flappers the last time

[@chrisplatten2293]

@@fagyu7502 The gabbro on Skye is definitely glove territory. Wear them on the easy bits and scrambly approaches to save some skin for the climbs, especially if there for a week

[@JL-pc2eh]

I laughed but gloves without covering fingers completly can be awesome. No lost skin on the palm, no cuts on sharp rock like granite. But using tape on fingers is better.

[@Mizminator]

@@fagyu7502 hydrate your skin bro with some cream or some..more hydrated means more flexible skin

[@londonhook3021]

You should do blindfolded climbing without seeing the routes and have marte try to coach you through it! Like the blind paraclimbers!

[@staceybaldridge7362]

The giggles and smiles from both Marte and Magnus are so wholesome 🥰

[@courtclimbs]

Glove what you did with this video.

[@theinterruptingturtle30]

This was such a joy to watch! I love the goofy, fun energy from both of you. I'd also love to know which shoes Marte is currently climbing in. Would love recommendations for women's climbing shoes!

[@andrewscott5059]

Marte is in women’s veloces

[@Siggav]

I have the veloces too, very comfortable and fit me well. I have a pretty square and wide foot however

[@dave_h_8742]

Got to agree she's a delightful lady and both great together funny and helpful choices from Marte. Great closeups and slowmo too, quality video. PS. No chalk 😱

[@Claire-xb3vw]

I have slightly broader feet in the middle part, and found Vapour V's extremely comfortable after breaking them in a bit (which only took about 2 sessions!). My best recommendation is to keep an eye out for boot demos in your area, where you can try on & climb in lots of different types & sizes that have already been broken in :-)

[@londonhook3021]

The veloce’s wear out quickly unfortunately, I have been wearing mine indoors and outdoors and after 4 months the rubber is wearing out, I have the la sportive solutions and i like them a lot but the veloces are comfy for sure

[@Thisdown]

Marte laughing out loud in the background when Magnus falls gets to me hahaha

[@allie-873]

Dumb ideas are usually the most entertaining in a video sense so this is going to be fun

[@martinma216]

Love how consistent the video releases have been. Also been to a lot of climbing gyms in Hong Kong and everyone of them has your videos playing on screen!

[@LeagueMiners]

i love u !

[@spydar05]

1:07 I'm SO glad she suggested this. I thought the gloves were a little too much, but really wanted to see him climb with the rental shoe handicap

[@marktate2683]

I love seeing the quirkiness that is you two. It's great to se her improvement and your challenges.

[@thisiseric]

Marte always bring such great energy and good vibes whenever she's on. As a side note, I actually was going to do this same concept but with a brand spanking new climber versus an experienced one wearing gloves. You beat me to it.

[@marc-adameckermann5382]

you are the main reason that i started comp climbing. so thank you for pouring yourself into these videos!!

[@chaewonpark2202]

I have so much questions to ask, may I have your email or any apps to chat?

[@kamilcieslawski1248]

They're such a cute pair. I love watching them having fun together :)

[@lyron7673]

The next time I see a man with gloves and socks at a boulder I now know he's a pro.

[@MiguelClimbs]

No chalk?! That's Magnus' kryptonite.

[@hw7089]

It cancels out if he can climb without a shirt 😏

[@Zraknul]

Next challenge: Magnus has to wear a turtleneck shirt. Probably a bit late for Christmas sweater.

[@emmettsmith1387]

The video editing was amazing in this one! Good work to whoever did it, whether its magnus or a hired editor. :)

[@magmidt]

Thank you! This was edited by me😊 If the video is edited by anyone else, it will say in the description.

[@framacken]

the youtube closed captions are doing Marte dirty @16:40 "well taht was nice uh thank you mr once again for joining the session of course"

[@sylvaindupuis5595]

When I was young, I teached rock climbing in a summer camp. It was outside with childrens who never had climbed before from 6 to 16, depending of the group. It was almost always the same routes so it got a bit boring after a while. To change the routine and to make kids understand that it was not hard and they just had to to remember to breath and stay relax and to use their balance (no overhang at their level), I once climbed with a scuba diving mask, tuba and palms in my hands.

[@Jiveina]

I'm a 110kg guy who started some climbing 3 weeks ago. Seeing Magnus not be able to hang on holds with the big gloves on, is essentially what I feel with my current power/weight ratio :D Really fun to see

[@Balgore8]

Wow just watching Marte on the first climb she's so much more fluid, confident, and balanced than watching the videos from when she first started appearing on the channel. You go girl!

[@pontusolssonPrivat]

This is an amazing video idea. I love these challenges when magnus has a disadvantage and tries to compete

[@jeu198]

Really great editing. Your love for Marte (well, for her beauty) shows in the editing. Oh and watched a video with Alex H in and when host asked if he watched their channel Alex replied "I only watch Magnus" 😂

[@bearcenteno3223]

I’ve gotta say it has been so cool seeing Marte’s improvement in climbing since the “first date” video hahaha another great vid Magnus! Thank you

[@Jxrd99]

Should do an episode trying to climb in trainers/skate shoes lmao. My local climbing gym doesn't require climbing shoes or rentals, so it'd be interesting to see how limiting improper equipment actually is.

[@andrewgilbertson5356]

Thank you Magnus and Marte

Marte's got such an agreeable attitude always fun to have her on. Also, Magnus you looked like a spider climbing that 7C with the crazy toe and heel hooks.

[@madeline569]

I hope you get back into it again!

[@vanessaaves3271]

Well, recovering from a major knee surgery has prevented me from doing pretty much everything but physical therapy… but when I’m back on my A game, I just might try it again. I live near Boulder, Colorado where there are like 5 large rock climbing gyms.

[@markbloyd9852]

Haven't watched any climbing for a few months, so it was nice to come across your videos again. The first couple I watched were recommendations and no Marte, so I had to go to your channel and make sure you guys were still together. This was a fun little gem of a video to demonstrate how things are going with you both. Great fun to watch. Happy new year!

[@calus151]

i come here because i hear you are the best normal rock climberr.... i stay because you and the girl your with make me laugh and smile.... just be yourself and the views will follow!

The tech climbing/start on red #1 was super impressive and anyone who hates on your lady friend can take a long walk off a short pier. She seems super rad and puts everything into competitions. I especially like this vid because I am still recovering from and doing physical therapy for my hands and watching the restrictionist climbing is giving me some hope. Skol -T
