[@aaroncaldwell9298]

You've officially made it dude! It's crazy how quickly you've exploded onto the climbing scene. You deserve it! You have great humor, and are approachable and make climbing content accessible to newer climbers thanks to your humility and relevant perspective that is often missed by elite climbers. Congratulations on getting Adam on, keep up the great work!

[@danielbarker8622]

Absolutely

[@LostinYTblackhole]

Bud wtf are you talking about? You should be congratulating Adam for finally making it and being in the spotlight to be on this channel

It's more like Magnus is basically taking over climbing KZbin.

[@princeplatypus7593]

how has he got Adam Ondra on this channel🤣

[@boogaloo4640]

Via Magnus, possibly

[@zGJungle]

I'm not even a climber and I like this channel. I think this style of content is really good for his channel, he's funny and lets them talk, they seem very relaxed with him.

[@rever6612]

He is working for the Altitude project and this is basically an ad video, which is amazing. Working with some of the best climbers in the world and getting great content for the channel all at once is prefect.

Adam Ondra is just such a genuinely nice guy in every video he's in, Climbing seems to just have the warmest community with everyone being friendly and respectful of each other and people of all levels. Then there's you, rising to the top of the shitposting game in the best way.

[@lowaltitudefreesoloist]

Really cool to see someone pick Adams brain on some random topics, cool to hear about his involvement/opinion in the course with magnus, opinion on best indoor boulderer, and grade ranges.

[@136nugget]

Glad to see Adam Ondra hates grade ranges. I'm just a Gumby who has been bouldering 6 times and probably can't even complete a V2, but I don't even know how terrible I am because the gym by me uses grade ranges with colors. I wasn't sure if I was just a dumb gumby for wanting grades, but if the long neck and dyno man agree I feel better about it now.

[@boogaloo4640]

Magnus said the same thing in the new video on his second channel

[@spiritualliving8318]

I don’t get what grade ranges or the colors are, I know about the 3 grading systems however, but my first time going to a gym I was able to climb v4s, I’ve gone a few times since and still haven’t gotten a v5 yet but my visits have been far between so.

[@xp8969]

Trying to have a consistent grading system has always been a challenge in climbing with the specific difficulties ranging from the differential in difficulty of movements depending on one's size and particular strengths and weaknesses to the difficulty that naturally comes from a diverse group of people climbing all sorts of different things and trying to put an objective number to their subjectively diverse experiences so having a range for each problem's grade actually seems like a good idea to me

[@idiot4177]

@@spiritualliving8318 unless you're just super strong or super talented getting a v4 first time bouldering usually means the gym is grading very softly

[@spiritualliving8318]

@@idiot4177 I’m both, I use to do a lot of parkour and trained my fingers back then, but I was able to do multiple v4s not only one, and I can do them everytime. It’s a good gym.

[@LePetitBat]

Grading V1 to V4 is like having a dumbell that's "10 to 40kg" 💀

[@etrephesm]

yep 😂

[@Pshady]

I love the chilled out interviews, just letting them talk with the relaxed atmosphere and none standard but interesting question lines

[@Rock_Appreciator]

Doing silence in silence is now the pinnacle goal

[@xenia6103]

I absolutely agree with Adam on the topic of how much better you can progress when someone explains techniques to you and since you're always alone when it comes to being on the wall, I think an online format would largely have the same effects as someone explaining it in person.. I still remember the first time someone explained a "body wave" (no idea of the correct term, English isn't my first language) using basically only momentum on moves that aren't quite jumps yet, I had been climbing for years at that point but just having someone explain it again, how and where to shift the weight was one of my first experiences of thinking about technique in a way that broke down the movement and less in a childish "I want to reach that hold and it just worked" kind of way. Then doing the movement a bunch go times and getting comfortable with it id different ways, directions etc. I was maybe 11/12 y/o then and it has stuck with me for over a decade, I've had different trainers at different levels since, but that young man explaining this to me still stands as one of the points I remember falling in love with climbing all over again :)

[@matthewbrod4450]

15:40 as a newer climber I could not agree more. getting to know the grading scale has been a huge motivator for me and even if I can't finish a higher grade, I feel good making progress on it knowing its graded harder than my usual sends

[@androgynousmaggot9389]

Adam is such an amazing guy! I watched him collaborate with many other climbers, and he's always entertaining and naturally funny!

[@LuLzezRoflcopter]

My local gyms ran by an old climber. And I like to think he's still in that 90s mindset of sandbag everything, lots of tough overhang crimps and tough grades mindset. When I see young guys who've been climbing for 8+ years falling on 5.10s I like to think it's a true graded gym.

Regarding downsizing shoes I want to say that Adam wears LaSportiva Solutions, which you can downsize much more. In contrast, Scarpa recommends not downsizing or only by 1 size.
