Louis VS Yonder Comp Wall

[@koragaazka9881]

- How did it feel? - unlucky - unlucky? - UNLUCKY??

[@Bennici]

18:40 you know, sometimes when Louis climbs, I can't tell if I am watching a slow-mo or at normal speed. I aspire to that kind of composure to spend that much time to get the feet exactly where they need to be.

[@MaximePuys]

20:28 You're in the final of our hearts man! 😀

[@RealWorldClimbing]

Obviously Louis is super strong, but his technique makes these boulder look like they don't require grip strenghth.

[@GeneralPeragorn]

I climb at the same wall. I cap out pretty hard at 13! (the black one) Seeing him do it makes it look so easy

[@ravenruppie96]

Glad I'm not crazy by thinking he's making these look so easy lmao

[@catschoose1248]

I'm sure he has great technique, but it's hard for me to look past the super strength lol, his whole body looks so relaxed while grabbing onto crappy holds

[@Crazyoldman84]

He's also super thin so very light.

17:40 Jake setting in the wild

[@shaneh7519]

11:39 you ever dino so hard your pants change into shorts

[@RimshotKiller]

18:40 Now look at that slow and deliberate setting of the foot... Incredible climbing, as always!

[@Sam-ns5bt]

His moves are so smooth, it's nice to watch. Well done💪

[@NWRinehart]

The switch to shorts @ 11:38 lmaoooo

[@Dustbinlid1]

13:32 the sound of someone pulling strong Edit: no it was the drills behind him, but we all enjoy that sound when you're pulling so hard the boards creek

[@jofitness9373]

I'm having an English speaking exam tomorrow so I'm only allowed to watch British climbers today. Enjoy the comp!

[@6bNoProblem]

That moment with the spy paper is so funny to watch. Great Video. Great entertainment!

[@JahNug]

What an amazing wall, every problem looks so well set and the hold selection is 👌 👌 Great climbing too of course, never seen so much effortless flow!

[@eadelindizon9514]

the lady who walks in at 0:26.... i believe that's alot of us after failing on our project yet again. ALLEZ! also, wondering how tall louis is? just curious and to gauge where id reach on these boulders.

[@MinzClimbs]

He's about 5'7 but has an ape index of like... +4/5 if i remember correctly (might be wrong, but it's deffo high). That's why he looks about 6 foot in his videos and has the reach of someone who is, lol

[@viicvan]

@@MinzClimbs omfg , i have aswell like that but less , 5'25 in height and 5'65 in ape index , but he is another level

[@AliceChengakaTheGreatCyanide]

She's actually an assistant route setter at the gym and totally crushes most boulders there haha :)

[@eadelindizon9514]

@@AliceChengakaTheGreatCyanide thanks for the info!! just found it comical the way she flopped down haha. she probably just came down frm something really tough 🦾🦾🦾

[@MultiMineCube]

Best of wishes and a quick recovery to that imaginary finalist that had a horrible chalking-accident.

[@anelivb]

My gym doesn't have a comp wall, so I live vicarously through Louis! (it's a neat tricky, that lets me climb harder!)

[@adibmikhail1932]

Love watching your vids! Learnt a lot 🙌🏾

[@guustvanuden2968]

dude climbing 22 routes and has the day after a comp holy shit i would have to rest 4 days after that XD

[@davidmurray9031]

I really liked this comp simulation format. On an unrelated note though. What's the name of the song around 23:00?

[@Hassan-Moqadam]

What’s the song at 09:30 called? Great video buddy ;) keep it up

[@JMorris1]

Louis throwing his glasses off mid climbs is the same thing I do. Don't wanna scratch them!

[@AmirNickname]

Louis Parkinson and the mystery of the magically appearing second camera angle ;) Great video, and thanks for down climbing very happy you're giving the right example!!

[@daltonkeightley5800]

Is that a bouldering bobat in the back at 17:54

[@SelcraigClimbs]

Oh nice, im going yonder for the first time tomorrow woo

[@peachizashi]

love watching you climb!!!!!!

[@leftcoastbeard]

Good show Louis!

[@Tr1gg3e]

you're gonna need to start putting the grade of the current boulder in the corner of the video because you make everything look effortless and I end up thinking I could do it no problem 😂

[@philipmack5668]

Is that a wild jake mason i see in the background as Louis is doing boulder 23?

[@tgbassplayer6622]

Love that I keep appearing in the background of this video 😂

[@mcmc1998-d8y]

Louis looking swole

[@nikolaimikuszeit3204]

nice to watch. thanks

[@logiebearsb]

Great climbs, thanks

[@travislayes6024]

I hope you win tomorrow Louis. Meow!!!

[@N___C]

Beautiful climbing gym

[@Rosie-om8xg]

My toxic trait is thinking I would be able to do some of these climbs bc Louis makes them look so easy

[@la.climbs]

are thoise shoes the tarantulas? from la sportiva

[@itsrachelbuasuwan]

11:40 Louis was wearing shorts....

[@vybz987]

Any tips for holding onto long pinches other than pure grip strength?

[@msice1000]

okay so can someone tell me what is the difference between those "Comp" boulders and the normal ones ? Because in a previous video Louis said that "comp" boulders nowadays require a lot of dynamic moves jumps etc. and not all in this vid are dynamic and jumpy

[@babsds0]

I think he meant ifsc style boulders when he said comp boulders, rather than a small competition held by a local gym.

[@matthewthompson6455]

There's technically no difference , just different style of setting , I think usually comp style uses bigger/flashier holds/volumes, and like you said more acrobatic moves

[@tophmyster]

Comp climbing generally refers to moves that aren't necessarily "difficult" but more "low percentage" Basically, it's easy to have the *required* strength to do it, but even if you're strong enough there's a chance it doesn't stick, and the stronger you are just reduces that chance but its always a pretty decent chance you don't stick it And like a commenter above said, generally when people are talking about comp style they mean world cup/IFSC, not necessarily any climbing comp as gyms will have their own setting team that might not like the IFSC style

[@speedy0_FPV]

awesome Louis :D

[@MinzClimbs]

Watching these videos makes me want to head back to Yonder... Shame it's 3 1/2 hours away lol

[@mustigarbage.]

Ohhh yeahhh daddyyyy ohhhh ahhh ohh papi ohhh

[@Johnsenptonsen]

11:38 did Louis just swapped some pants there?

[@yoshisama3]

Which shoes are those you are using?

[@rasmusblomberg7373]

theory womens

[@airspeed159]

So I'm wondering what these would be in V grades? It's so hard to tell especially with someone like Louis making it look easy but...to me it looks like 1-10 is V2-V4, 11-20 is V5-V7, 21 is where V7/8 and harder starts? anyone have any input on that? I'm just trying to get an idea of how hard these are?

[@OrestisTsapogas]

Yonder does post their grades on the griptonite app. They usually are in ascending order as Louis mentions in the video, even though in this reset they are a few exceptions to that (at least based on griptonite). But anyway grades are a bit of a ballpark game especially with those comp walls. Based on the app: 4-6 are V2 7-9 are V3 10-12 are V4 13, 14 and 16 are V5 15, 17 and 19 are V6. 18 and 20 are V7 21 and 22 are V8 23 is V9 I haven't tried any of the harder climbs, but I can attest number 13 is very hard, that's when those climbs get proper hard for me.

[@babsds0]

Having tried the boulders I'd say you're actually pretty spot on with your guesses. 21 is around v7/8, 22 is around v8/9 and 23 is v9ish and the easier problems are as you stated.

[@airspeed159]

@@OrestisTsapogas oh cool, thanks for this

[@roastedmarhmallow]

Was getting some strong Hugh Grant vibes this video. Mainly the accent but genuinely your mannerisms a bit as well :p

[@Beaudehaas]

What shoes is he wearing?

[@slapthesloper]

200/230 nice number to end on haha

[@laufsteakmodel]

I really doubt that with that many flashes you wouldnt make finals though

[@uberstuff5]

Can’t believe Milo sold Louis down the river, sad to see

[@WillTheFrozen]

i liked the video

[@haydenpaille7164]

electro swing?? have some class

[@johnshipley1389]

Shame there’s so much music over everything, makes it unwatchable
