A Mellow Switzerland (1/2)

[@lorenaiach1853]

When Giuliani got ANGRY at the climb and then refused to leave until he sent, I felt that

[@mathius8360]

Dude, the climbing on this channel is so flippin' motivational.

[@marc-olivierrouette4574]

Kevin should make a legit movie, so sick

[@maximeferre6903]

Kevin Takashi Smith I love you. You, your editing and your pictures

[@francoislecot2549]

And your mustache

[@theunaphotobomber]

Using the pace of music to mirror the pace of climbing is something that I think about all the time. It's so damn inspiring to see/hear KTS using music from bands like Russian Circles to dictate the pacing of his videos. It's literally been a dream of mine for a long time to do something similar, but I simply have not built up the video editing skills to do so. It was fucking BADASS to watch Giuliano dispatch that rig just as the breakdown hit in Harper Lewis. This video is like a collision of worlds for me. The marrying of my two biggest passions. Amazing work, Kevin! I seriously can't overstate how much I love your work. Another band that I'd recommend to anyone here who enjoyed this would be the band/man Cloudckicker. He's got some incredible instrumental music.

[@qotsa1234]

Nice to see i am not the only climber who likes post rock/metal.

[@MateuszCS]

Agreed! The music and pacing was incredible. Glad to know I was right to assume it was Russian Circles when the intro kicked in lol Climbing to rock/doom/post rock/whatever you want to classify RC as is something that needs to be done more.

[@ziz2lenac]

@@MateuszCS Yes it was a good music choice even if I prefer a video without any music

[@bornintosilence1992]

Yeah man, I was thinking in cloudkicker too and maybeshewill. Great footage with the music.

[@davearan2886]

Post rock/metal + climbing, doesn’t get much better

[@ficklemedia8733]

8:50. Hands down one of the best clips from a climbing movie ever

[@scottdonahue7813]

That was some A-1 spotting by Jimmy Webb.

[@BlocBusters]

Can't wait for the other three parts :D

[@matthewontherocks]

That b-roll at 1:46 is one of the most beautiful bits of scenery I've seen in a long time

[@timsmith6532]

Switzerland is just a different animal. Was lucky enough to go there once and the whole place felt magical hahaha

[@erikh8685]

I can't believe this is free. So sick

[@qotsa1234]

Love the song selection.

[@davidlight3546]

this whole vid is insane but the starting couple minutes are truly incredible. the cut from Woods bailing to covid to the slow buildup into the main part of the video is so nostalgic and beautiful; perfectly bittersweet. makes me so psyched and so sad at the same time, lets all crush this pandemic to go crush outside again

[@Perrseus]

Always watch mellow videos before a climbing session to get hyped

[@matheustravi9957]

this is just by far best climbing content on youtube

[@yognaught1000]

YES! Been waiting so long for this! I could watch hours of this footage. So sick

[@thepantherfan52]

8:55 when he was topping out and they didn't show from the start "oh no."

[@PaulHobbs23]

Love the music and vibes.

[@robertobreve8623]

This channel should have millions of subscribers

[@samheaney1331]

Post rock on a climbing video, amazing.

[@qotsa1234]

Pretty darn right

[@totheair247]

@@qotsa1234 so so good

[@seanwakasa1241]

Yo this was the sickest climbing video I have seen in a while! Great film-making

[@brickmortar0]

The soundtrack for the first boulder!

[@matteopisoni2158]

Top-shelf quality bouldering and Russian circles? Pure gold 👌

[@aidanloeser4890]

Giuliano! I mean, all the mellow boys just blew my mind yet again... but Giuliano!

[@syntropyband7879]

Always so stoked to see new videos from you guys. MEGA!

[@nickbalfe4995]

Such crispy footage. Cannot wait for part 2 stoked

[@quinnthompson]

Jeepers. This stuff is incredible. Thanks for putting out the content!

Toss and turn to the sound of thunder, but I've got watermellow to sooth my slumber...

Great flick, great soundtrack!🤘🤘

[@johnchappell9232]

Best I've ever seen. Evolutional.

[@davidgriffith9818]

That look @9:05 hurts so much

[@sebastianmanriquez7376]

Sick climbing. That soundtrack tho, what a nice touch!

[@robinluger9424]

mellow has the best climbing content on youtube by far lately

[@AusVersehen]

Fantastic music choice

[@thomaslawrence9888]

more Metal, post, death and all other sub genres please! it fits so so so well.

[@dancannaday4135]

Love the soundtrack! Very mellow

[@SJ-vc2tz]

Liking the music in this one, suits the hardcore climbing :)

[@bock0112]

La musica migliore di sempre. BOMBA

[@dylanmiller9386]

[@gorillahands927]

I just loveeeee the music choice!

[@artenostop]

Mellow + Russian Circles. Goosebumps.

[@Kyllleur]

Damn guys, those boulders are looking so sick! And so many first ascents! Will you guys make a topo about Val Bavona?

[@edcunningham5562]

sounds like there may be a book in the future www.ticinoboulder.ch/ . I think Giuliano's dad creates these guides haha

[@Kyllleur]

@@edcunningham5562 Thanks for the link! :D

[@LaiGnaw]

Combining a bunch of strong climbers with awesome boulders and quality production, this is the paragon of it should be done.

[@theboxman--4538]

Oh shiet, 1/4 ?! We're in for a ride

[@angusck4450]

no one: absolutely no one: Daniel Woods: "very good"

[@monkey3888]

awesome film!!

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

Some of the best climbing footage I've seen consistently coming from mellow. Love all the music you all choose for the videos, too. The vids must be demonetised cause of the music, right? How do you all make money off of this? If it's strictly a passion project I commend everyone behind the production of the videos in this channel, they are seriously among my favourite and are super inspiring.

[@bornintosilence1992]

Russian circles + bouldering = awesome video. Can't wait for the next parts.

[@kN.fLachT]

nice video and cool spots!

[@JasonOgasian]

8:58 I want a spotter like that with me all the time.

[@Yanniboycherl]

Russian Circles kicks ass

[@Stefanson100]

YEAHHH Dudes, Insane Video!

[@misterx2133]

Squalo Bianco. What is he actually holding onto? My brain can’t comprehend.

[@jordanlagana3023]

that foot pick on the mantle is my worst nightmare

[@jacksoukup5442]

Guiliano isn't human. He was created in a lab and has newt DNA. His sweat is sticky, that's the only explanation.

[@misterx2133]

John Soukup That would be very useful. Especially on sketchy topouts.

[@BecauseVikingsCan]

his dear life

[@totheair247]

Been so excited for this!!

[@Lazerethe]

Amazing video !!

[@jacksonwright427]

KTS back at it with another fucking BANGER. Dying for the next 3 parts.

[@Goofygreyhoundgoober]

Boulders dont often get me mega psyched, but man that long one Guliano was trying looks fucking mega!

[@fruitoftheheirloom]

music is bliss

[@paulmitchell5349]

Squalo Bianco/White shark. I did a new problem at Squamish called Great White....

[@zeMaxC]

What was up with Daniel at the start? Was it related to Covid since it was in march?

[@yesim18duh14]

Yeah, they are talking about how they are choosing to cut their trip short and head back to USA.

[@Lucas.jp13]

As Daniel would say... "very good"

Absolutely great video. Psykelevels are high right now. But a bit too much saturation in this vid imo ;)
