That twisting with the legs at 5:19 just blew my mind

[@FlarkeFiasco]

He's such an inventive climber with momentum

[@yufengliu4206]

Dude, straight helicopter double pogo campus, so nuts

[@Lizard440]

It feels like Louis Parkinson is the Steve Irwin of bouldering, just talking through every action with such playfull enthusiasm and passion. It's fun to look at and impressive at the same time :D

[@michael1]

Except he doesn't poke his cat with a stick to get it to react on camera "Let's see how ferocious tiddles is if we poke him with a stick...crikey! look at those teeth and claws"

[@cradleofgoth]

The most impressive thing in this video is Louis' glasses catching skill. And that campus body twist.

[@jakobbauz]

"Oh it's a jug, thank God!" (11:25) A very, very relatable quote. :)

[@ethanfung1413]

26:15 glasses catch takes loads of coordination

[@BenFletcherVideos]

I had to rewind that one, couldn't believe what I saw :D

[@jasoncraig5233]

14:19 The speed of the hand switch was insane

[@LucyInk121]

"Oh it's a jug, thank god" - sums up my climbing style

[@timlawn1]

Such a good game! It is also wild seeing you just float up boulders that were my long term projects...

[@jacktrussler20]

I absolutely love your content and personality! I would just like to offer one peice of advice. That being raising the camera person off the ground! Having them on a box/ladder etc let's us look down on some of the holds and see how good/bad they are! This tip is courtesy of Magnus.

[@FlarkeFiasco]

I find it hard to read the climb from such steep angles. I like the straight in camera more, myself.

[@jacktrussler20]

@@FlarkeFiasco maybe we've misunderstood, I don't mean looking down from a great height. I'm talking maybe half way up the wall?

[@ellakuoppala7042]

@@FlarkeFiasco yeah I think so too. Especially you have only one camera angle, it should be straight imo :)

[@codyheiner3636]

Louis climbs soooo beautifully, and this video really showcases it! :O

[@apoorvpro]

So amazing to see a pro solve project level problems in a flash.

[@lucagamerro5140]

it's so cool how you readjust the glasses in the middle of a climb

[@jamesfair8396]

Really love the energy! Great tips and creative process discussion. Keep producing this awesome content!!!

[@DaniOutEast]

Thanks for gamifying climbing drills, Louis!!

[@tareqmaaroufi6686]

Waw the legs twist on 5m20 is so smooth! Creative climbing 💪

[@KFMmax]

this is great content, its fun to see you climb and inspires me to climb more!

[@basti1597]

To spice up the game you could make a rule to only move on to the boulder, which is right next to the one you just did. So you can't make 'tactical decisions' and don't choose the ease ones :)

[@danielsigursson8512]

Looks like a nice game. I will try it on my next session. Happy holidays!

[@derekxiaoEvanescentBliss]

Are the moves at 8:41 and 8:02 a favorite of louis, or does this gym just set that kind of move a lot? I've never come across this kind of compy move before so it's really interesting to me - pulling from a barndoor into a double clutch. Is it the easiest beta, or does louis just preferentially do things that can be staticed dynamically?

[@nkartashov]

I've seen such moves set in Bethwall, a different gym in the same system, it feels like this type of move is useful when you're going dynamically and the top hold is not good enough to hold the swing

[@BrumbleJumble]

bro you are insane and so inspirational to me because i get to see how much better i can be if i keep practicing

[@PeanutCG]

My glasses tend to fall off when I get sweaty too. I bought some small silicone attachments that you can just slip onto the back of your glasses and they won't fall off anymore. It was a game changer for me and I don't even notice that I'm wearing glasses anymore!

[@jaycee6764]

Thank you for finishing the last one, it would have been SO frustrating otherwise. It also makes me feel better because I tried it a few times and was unable to reach the crimp 😆 Great vid 👏

[@zacharymehl1461]

What a fun game. Thanks for sharing!

[@jameswuu4241]

When you fell off that black climb it felt like watching someone fall off a boulder in the IFSC boulder finals! Awesome video, I might try this game next time!

[@brendansaffer7864]

Such a good video! Do you have more games like this? Videos like this are soo good!

[@wircoal]

For number of views sake the video should have been called "Louis casually flashes the hardest set"

[@josebarrientos7757]

Qué colores utilizan para hacer referencia a la intensidad de los Boulders? Saludos desde Patagonia! Muy buenos los videos!

[@thecheekyscamp6466]

Did you skip a white climb on your second run through?

[@BlueRogue100]

I bet you and Magnus would have a great time

[@gunnaruppstad3574]

Superhuman glass protection at 26:20 ...

[@tristonloux966]

You make some of those black climbs look way too easy

[@Noppa84]

I don't understand this adjusting rule. Seems like you are pumping hands and feet in the holds, turning around you hand in the hold and often matching feet/hands and then other times being careful not to. So what does this rule actually mean?

[@davidriley8520]

Does Michael Caine know "Alfie" does climbing ??? ;)

[@AusVersehen]

Apparantly this game should be more accurately be called "perfect repeat, send, fail" :P

[@zippypop34]

What shoes are those?

[@shishirvc680]

I think he talks about those in one of his videos. ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYq3ioeKpbqUgqs )

[@gamotousername]

Thats the coldest gym I have ever been to, how can you be with just a t-shirt? Reception was wearing winter jacket and gloves! The holds are dirty and degraded as well..

[@Bigwillyphilly]

upload more >:(

[@meso707]

This vid is from a while ago. I hope you did buy new, more fitting glasses. Had the same problem with my old glasses. I used to get headaches cos I was clenching my scalp muscles to hold the glasses in place when bending over. Not fun, plus it distracts you from climbing.. 😊

[@alexbarcovsky4319]

Louis is the dad that climbs in cobras and downclimbs everything but still flashes your V8 project. Also you seem to try really hard to downclimb everything. Do you have back or knee problems? Thats what Ive been doing since having my back problems, pretty sucky that Im afraid to really push on some projects.

[@KirstenRietveld]

Downclimbing is just better for you in general. It helps to prevent those injuries

[@alexbarcovsky4319]

@@KirstenRietveld sure it is better, but its not as cool aj jumping from 3 meters and doing a superhero lamding

[@ShadowDatsas]

What's the average/intented grade of the black circuit...? Is it 6c-7a?

[@KirstenRietveld]

I think he just makes it look much easier than it is.

[@johnbonjovi410]

Why does Louis never look smooth while climbing? I feel like he’s so strong and light he has never had to climb with actual good technique.
