17:48 - MagnusBrain: "Ah, perfect heel hook- wait I'm ice climbing nevermind" I love seeing you try the route. It shows that it doesn't matter how strong and generally trained you are; focused practise at that exact thing is very important. Most of us wouldn't make it anywhere at all, and even Magnus - a good climber - struggled with it. Meanwhile Petra made it look easy, as if she's climbing a ladder.

[@LethicusNy]

I noticed that too. Made me actually laugh out loud. No spikes there.

[@Yanvonschleck]

Before I watched the whole thing, I have to say, it’s great that you try out so many different styles of climbing. Really enjoy the diversity ! Thanks Magnus and greets from Germany 🙌

[@Firebuck]

Loved this interview with Petra. I'd already watched the final, but it was all new again after hearing her talk about it. Great content!

[@TXTrojan]

agree, i really appreciate that it was not a rushed interview. He really gave her time and they had a really good discussion.

[@robocu4]

I like her smile

[@valentinkutnar7020]

It's crazy, I was actually at the men semi-final and I saw a guy trying the route in a black jacket. I found it weird but never though it was you!!! It looked really hard for a "normal" person. Looking forward to see you in Saas-Fee next year!

Petra is a pleasure to watch. What a legend, and a great personality.

[@kithugomusic]

One if the things I've always found inspirational about you, Magnus, is how you get so intruiged and generally interested you seem to be of other sports and how you always try them 100%! Just keep doing what you're doing! I would personally love to see a collaboration between you and the current female world olympic champion in climbing, Janja Garnbret! Having only climbed myself for half a year, and still have a lot to learn, I feel like the two of you have kinda similiar styles. Like strong and dynamic, and how you both seem to move with 100% confidence on the wall. What's the mentality like when making dynamic moves without hesitation? What's going through your mind? How do you train to get there? And how come she's been so damn dominant in the climbing scene? Anyone else feel like this would be an amazing collab?

[@davidzenkert8759]

Would be amazing

[@ThePolishTraveller]

wow I was wondering what happened to Petra. Great to see that she excels in yet another climbing branch. That is why climbing is one of the best if not THE best sport out there - it just cannot get boring as there's so much to choose from. Do not fancy bouldering, follow Sharma and Ondra on epic long sport climbs, not scary enough? try solo; too scary? deep water solo? adventure? new routes? alpine, ice, too adventurous? back to gym. The opportunities are enough for a one life time.

[@BadDubII]

[@perzoorgasmatron4914]

Mate, now, I have seen all your videos and gave you a like on them as well. It was nice to see you grow with your channel and quite frankly, you were the inspiration for me to start climbing. I am older than you, but still fell in love with climbing because of you. Thanks mate, keep up the good work and I am looking forward to see many more of your videos..P.S. where is your book? 😏😂💪

Amazing video and love Petra! Didn't even know competitive ice climbing was a thing until Saas-Fe a few weeks ago and saw interviews with Petra Klingler. Super cool concept and filming as always and amazing to see you try something different 😍 PS: started bouldering because of you and watch all the videos

[@asonei3531]

Petra is such a nice Person, you couldn't have had a better guide!! We met her after a bouldering gym opening where she gave a course and she was training on her own afterwards. Still she took the time to give us (beginner V4 climbers) some tips and have a little chat!

It was funny seeing Magnus trying to heel hook the block of ice that he was struggling on :D

petra on ice looks like janja in lead - she somehow makes everything look doable. And she's such a cool, down to earth person, too.

While I do agree, It's written that way to get ranked higher in the algorithm.

It’s been the same title format for years. “X vs pro arm wrestler”, “X vs pro ninja warrior” if she deserves to have her name in the title just because she is a woman than that is contentious and sexist. She’s a badass and people will know who she is by watching the video

I'm two month late for this video but just gotta say that ice climbing was really interesting to watch and Petra Klingler is not only an impressive athlete but I liked how eloquent she was about her sport when you talked to her.

[@tycarper6330]

Petra is a badass. Wins, asks for harder routes. Great video!

[@jakobbauz]

I just love that energy you often get when pro athletes talk to each other. There's such a lack of ego, I feel like; I mean I could be wrong but in a way it would make sense, because once you've actually competed you know your limits... you know that anxiety and even failure are part of the deal of being only human and if you've kept with it you've done so for the love of the game. Okay, that is a little lofty. :D You know what I mean though. Love to Norway or wherever you are right now!

[@ShannonCR]

Ice will often form huge stalactites especially on overhangs. Dangerous as hell though as it's essentially climbing an icicle hoping it doesn't snap.

[@itsmikehayden]

After your last vid, I went to check out ice climbing. It was such a different world to see. It was amazing - thank you for brining this to my attention! I'd love to see a real use for all those figure fours you see in ice climbing. Is that something that's been phased out or can you still use it on trad/boulders?

[@michaelmccluskey2044]

It's rarely useful in rock climbing, but it can occasionally be. If you can't lock off one armed, then it can be good for very long reaches where you start on a good hold for your hands, but have no footholds that could be useful for a dynamic move. If you're strong and can lock off one armed, then it's usually more efficient to just campus. That said, figure 4 is still sometimes easier, especially if the wall is fairly overhung and the hold you are going for is something that requires precision, like a small pocket or a jam. As a side note, the reason that figure 4 is so useful in mixed/ice climbing, is that you often have to place your axe with a lot of precision, making it risky to do long fast dynamic moves where you push with your legs (like you would often do for long moves in rock climbing).

[@mortenrl1946]

I think another part of the reason the figure 4 is so useful here, is that the climber has a full hammer grip on the handle of the pick.

[@jessenicoletta4160]
