IT HAPPENED!! Nikken Is Sport Climbing On A 8c!

[@kyleanderson3633]

The extra effort for this lead video really paid off, this is among the most well shot indoor climbing videos I've seen (I'm somewhat of an expert, I spend my not climbing time watching people climb on KZbin). Keep up the excellent cinematography and interesting routes! My favorite KZbin channel by far.

[@TraciCuber]

The filming side of this is super cool! A behind the scenes video would be awesome

[@Levga2627]

Man those walls are way taller and more unique then my gym's. Great Video!

[@nikkend5069]

Lev Abramov Glad you enjoyed it! We're super lucky to have this gym 😊

[@mikelautensack7351]

bro it must be said this video was awesome you guys have the potentail to make some killer videos

[@EricKarlsson]

Thanks for the support Mike! lets hope!

[@mikelautensack7351]

Eric Karlsson Bouldering i know that that kind of production takes a lot of work but thats some high quality filming you guys should travel arround climb outside and also a instructional series on leading i just started

[@ainorebane4147]

finally this is the climbing I do, I have been waiting so long for u guys to do sport climbing

[@Lucy-ng7cw]

Yay! I've been waiting for leading.

[@MrXsim1]

That was awesome! Thanks for the Lead video! : ) 8C is crazy!! Good job Nikken

[@ericaman5393]

First off, seriously sick climb Nikken!!! As for the support team, you guys fucking rocked it!!! It's so inspiring, as I just go my lead climb certification a week ago, and started climbing a roof route I've been eyeing yesterday, but I also am a photographer by degree and have been dreaming about not only climbing, but doing the video/photo production aspects. You guys are killing it!!! Mad props... now, I'm going to watch this for the 15th time. Keep it up!!! (Love the kneebar Nikken!!!)

[@anthonypasquarelli6420]

Video was sick! The roof section was insane. Angles were great as well.

[@HEAVYMETALMAGICVIDS]

Super stoked to see more lead climbing! You guys Rock!!! Keep it up!

[@WyandWombat]

Gotta say, I like your videos! I got myself into bouldering just a little over a month ago with the intention to try some climbing later this year. I just discovered your channel last week and took your advice to practice some foot work and had great success doing so! After 29 years I seem to finally have found some sport that I really have fun with. Now the thing that got me a little worried first is the fact, that I am only 170cm "tall", but watching Nikken definitely shows me that that's no excuse :D

[@jengaremus]

Beautiful climb, strong guy. After so many Boulder vids I hadn´t expected this endurance in you, Nikken. Respect!

[@Joe-vp4fi]

Major success on the setup guys. Bringing a lot of joy to people.

[@TheMrHannez]

I usually don't comment on videos but i just could not resist it this time. I enjoyed every second of it! Perfect music, super impressive climbing by Nikken and a perfectly executed edit, Eric. I have to give credit where credits due. More of these lead climbing videos! =) Maybe have Nikken climb the white "Be Like Sharma" route ;)

[@ThisIsNotMyHandle]

I have always told myself that Nikken is bouldering only; that he is an explosion - incapable of longer climbs. You proved me wrong man -- this is mental. I sure hope to see more of these, even though they're high effort, because it was a-mazing! Keep up the good work guys!

[@Colin_Barnes]

Amazing!! I loved it soo much! really appreciate the effort! So awesome!

[@StevieSteelandrats]

Thats it, I've decided; Nikken is definitely a cyborg!

[@nikkend5069]

Stephen Bleakley Thanks! I've gotta live up to my nickname somehow 😜

[@TheEthcat]

That looked super good, thanks to all the people helping out

[@speder10000]

Great video guys, really liked that you made the effort, i enjoyed watching, Greetings from Norway :)

[@christopherxavier4952]

Nice video Eric. Great cinematography skills as always

[@nathanhalfman1]

It's finally happening. Thanks for putting this together!

[@alexchaoo]

Great videos guys, nice to see the big walls at K2 put to use! Very fun to watch.

[@jenniferf4692]

SO strong, Nikken! Great job filming, Eric + crew! I really enjoyed it. It inspired me to keep training hard. Thanks, guys!

[@jimmylanik5404]

Congrats to everyone involved in this video. Super good quality. Woo

[@jendaser]

Hands down the best footage of indoor sport climbing on youtube!

[@sitinuranisah9853]

woah that route looks so difficult! but this is definitely one of my favourite videos from you! great effort, Eric! we appreciate it :D

[@vlillebo]

This is by far my favorite upload by you guys, and i love close to all of them! Excellent video! :)

[@Sozzzled]

Loved it! You guys did an amazing job!

[@TheNarutoCrusader]

You bet we liked it! Hella respect for putting in so much effort, it really shows in the quality of the vids. Motivated to sport climb now!

[@kadawup0]

I already love you guys and your content, and I'm beginning to get into lead climbing so I like watching you guys switch it up! I could definitely get into watching more sport climbing from you guys

[@hatefulmonday]

That video man! Super nice work from everybody! That was a huge step up and it was a real pleasur to watch =) Keep going this was super amazingly perfect hehe

[@aFTERBURNER198]

That sequence all the way from the bottom up until the part where Nikken first took a little rest was super amazing! Can't really describe why, it just was :D Btw, whenever I watch other people climb really high in videos and they're seemingly about to fall any second, my hands become incredibly sweaty...anyone else got that? xD

[@schmib269]

Whoever mapped/plotted that climb is an awesome route setter! Edit: the only improvement I could see is maybe a few more dinos.

[@JamieClark]

This was a good one - all that effort paid off, for sure - Can't wait to see a red point!

[@Friloppp]

nice work eric!👏👏👏 come on nikken!!

[@aligul8878]

Everytime I watch Nikken it reminds me my 9 years old nephew wtih his smily face. Fuck I'm going to call him tomorrow. As an uncle this is my task. Thank you for reminding me Nikken. We love you!

[@PopDeOllie]

THAT ROUTE IS SICK!!! I would LOVE more sport climbing videos, but I understand how much work it requires. This was awesome though!

[@davidnoble173]

GET HYPE! Well done Nikken!! looked strong. Production for a lead climb was on point.

[@florianreichelt1318]

Great effort! Thanks for doing this. It was fun seeing Nikken sport climb for a change, seeing how his strength translates to endurance-heavy climbs like this one. :D

[@matt.pma.kresnaputra5458]

Guys. There's gonna be the day when erik's commenters will ask: "Hey remember that time people raced for 'first' in every video". Man his sub count is growing pretty fast... soon there will be the day erik wont have time to reply to comments :(

[@Tormentor]

Okay, this is hands down my favorite video of yours for now by far. Really good choice of music, amazing camera work and of course an epic climb. Moar please Eric ;).

[@llllKyonllll]

Holy monkeyballs! Nikken is such an amazing Climber! Super sick seeing you on this 8C(!!!??!!?!?!!).Great job filming as well to everyone involved. I'm gonna show this at my climbing hall where they have also been trying to film (by lifting the camera instead of a camera man). Amazing channel with amazing people, keep it up guys!

[@kalj7]

Wow, really badass effort both by Nikkei on the route and by the crew. Really great production!

[@TheMr880]

Awesome Nikken, great job man!

[@MechanicalPencilful]

[@constantinc9034]

This was an awesome video. I just started climbing a month ago and i'm addicted. I am transitioning from cars/racing to climbing without hesitation lol

[@ratona6367]

I was like, dude how can Nikken just cruise through that roof like that and then all the effort squeaks happened XD Well done man!

[@rob060]

Your videos always make my psyched to go climbing... and make my hands sweat just watching lol.

[@TarantulaRookie]

cant wait for the next lead video, this was shot really well - the effort has paid off with this production for sure.

[@Snegovikufa]

[@AustinSchneiderMedia]

I really enjoyed the vid! Thanks man!

[@tomasnadvornik2826]

Really liked this one. I would love to see more videos like this. Not saying bouldering ones are worse though :D . I think someone said it before but i really miss the slow motions and close ups to the holds/moves I understand that it takes more work but i think it is woth the outcome. Keep up the great work man!

[@filipwidz5564]

Awesome job guys!

[@EricKarlsson]
