So many climber channels are just super buff athletes doing ridiculous problems. I really appreciate your videos as they are more relatable that you don’t have to be a super buff athlete that only films successes. Seeing the progression of failing while you figure out the beta and seeing improvement each time is SO much more motivating for just beginner average climbers like me. Thank you for being a climber content maker for those of us not ready to free solo El Capitan…

Louis' coaching style is so epic. The positivity and encouragement is fantastic. Always asking questions and answering them with suggestions, but not always "Here's how to do it" is fantastic because the climber has to think of what works for THEM individually. Terrific work Hannah. Your progression is encouraging for all of us watching to go try more and more and not worry about failing. One variation of the wrist curl for forearms, i would open my fingers as much as i can to help strengthen fingers at the same time like Hannah was doing slightly. Get ready for the burn though.

Honestly, slopers might be my favorite routes when I can do them because they look hard/impressive, feel great when done right, and it really forces me to think and move carefully. Other routes, I can brute force my way up or break betas, but slopers force me to use all of my body.

If you pause at 14:25 it's interesting to note the biomechanical body shape differences between you two, and how they may affect climbing. Most specifically, the different lengths of your leg segments: with nearly equal hip height, your upper and lower legs are quite similar in length, while his upper leg is quite short compared to his lower. It's most easily noticed in difference in knee height. Perhaps this helps him in movements such as where he easily sits his hip over his foot while you had more difficulty. He would be a really good runner, biomechanically having leg segment lengths similar to a cheetah with the long lower leg, whereas you would probably be a more powerful lifter Edit: interestingly, looks similar in his upper limbs as well, with shorter upper arm and long forearm

Slopers are my favorite and best holds haha although I am trash at open handing things. I think you can progress your strength at them a lot faster than crimps as well because it’s more fully body strength than tendon strength which takes a long time. Also most of the tips applicable to being good on slopers like direction of pull, hips in, brushing really just make every hold type / position better so improving slopers improves everything

I hate slopers for the bad feeling of sliding off holds. But I love them for the good feeling of finally finding a method that feels right. In the end, most sloper problems are pretty flowy and balancy when you get a good feel for them. And then they often feel really nice. They also give my fingers a rest from all the crimps I pulled way too hard on before, due to bad footwork :'D Also I cannot stress often enough how great a coach Louis is! Absolutely mind-blowing and so supportive and positive!

Great video and tips! I suffer from wrist instability on slopers so all of this will be super helpful! Also, when talking about grip types, I prefer the classification that @Hooper'sBeta does, based on the hyperextension of the DIP joint. Half crimp the last finger joint is streight, full crimp it's flexed, closed crimp is flexed + thumb around it. Both full crimp and closed crimp poses risk to finger injury, the latter way more. Would still need to be trained to prevent injuries either on the wall or on the hangboard. Looking forward to more videos!

I used to climb with the open hand technique most of the time. It just felt more natural. Even on the fingerboard I trained in the open hand position. Meanwhile I trained my half crimp way more (still working on full crimp) and got more confident on crimps. It all makes sense now.

Another tips for slopers, especially if you aren't used to work with them, is that they will never feel comfortable. You'll never have a feeling of "yes I'm holding it" and that's why it's important to come with a plan and execute it without going too slow or trying to be super stabilised. If you fail 2 times or more at the same spot, it means that the plan is wrong and you need to reconsider the body positioning on this part.

OK ok, I know I'm a year late to this one, but we scrolled through lots of comments and no one seems to mention the fact you have two different shoes on?!? 😂 His coaching style is so positive and helpful, I want to hang out with him as I feel his positivity will just lift you up the wall!

For anyone who doesnt know: the reason doing pushups on your knees vs on your feet is easier is because of the length of the lever you have to move

Super useful, as always! Amazing seeing how much the boulder seems difficult at the beginning and it becomes doable in the end. It really makes me think that I probably do not need to be stronger, but only to climb better...

100%, I don't know if you are in a position to get any coaching sessions but my first session I had I went from not even being able to get into the start position of a boulder problem to sending it cleanly 3 times in a row within about 10 minutes. The tiny little details that you may not notice when you're on the wall could make a huge difference if someone can talk you through them

It was pretty cool to see the progression play out in real time and go from feeling fairly sure I wasn’t going to get the move to getting it. Definitely exposed a lot of the gaps in my technique and made me want to focus on improving that! 😊

I think you're super brave to put yourself out there and show your learnings in the video! I'm gonna subscribe to the channel I would love to see similar stuff but also with a female pro/coach.

Would love to see how to use shoulder, back, and lats while holding a big sloper! Awesome video hannah!
