The Prague Debrief

[@PassionateCec]

"When I'm in Asia, I'm in my happy place and I get superpowers." And how! Congrats on your first world cup medal today! So deserved after an incredibly strong season. So much more coming your way with all your hard work, I'm sure.

[@afrikat.chalkbags]

I did NOT expect that little elmo clip 😂 dead 😂😂😂

[@NolanField-yh9il]

Made my day 😂

[@maxt7449]

It was amazing haha

[@jimmyrustle165]

I'm the guy who spoke to you in the public area about your zone appeal, felt so bad for you afterwards! Was lovely to meet you and watch you climb, and of course was rooting for that appeal to not go through so we could cheer you on in the final! Good luck in the future, you and Toby are absolute Beasts! So exciting to have some solid GB climbers on the circuit, hope to see you next year!

[@adelaidacreosteanu5907]

Congrats Erin on your medal in Seoul! 🎉 Looking forward to the season debrief you mentioned

[@falconatic10]

Post-appeal: We'll get 'em next time. Post-Seoul: It is THE next time! PODIUM FINISH LETS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

[@falconatic10]

lets go* xd

[@deanoooo_]

Really enjoying these debriefs Erin - best of luck for the lead at Seoul! Huge congrats for the boulder podium there - well-deserved after all the hard work you put in this season!

[@nathanwtc742]

I agree, always stick to stuff you can control. If you can't control a situation, then there is no point in thinking about it. This snippet of information is one of the great truths of life. 😊

[@christiannielsen7670]

Just want to say that I’m sure plenty of people would love to see some of your training!! Always interesting to get an insight on the amount of work it takes to improve at your level of climbing

[@glennodero4212]

Ever since the Olympics, you have been climbing w/ a new found confidence. You could really see it in Koper, Prague and in Seoul. There is no doubt in my mind that you will be getting more podiums and medals. If you get a chance to watch the replay of the semis and finals in Seoul, whenever you come out to climb, the commentators unanimously agree and always make it a point to say that you are someone fans should watch with great interest! Congratulations on your first (of many more to come) medal and podium. You are only getting better and your best climbing has yet to come! Best of luck in the lead competition and as always, UNLEASH THE BEAST! BEAST MODE ENGAGE! :)

[@wolfgangpokorski4483]

What I always am most curious about is the thought processes you go through when projecting a climb, like you did talk about in the video with Louis. Fun challenges of course also are a big thing and great to watch. But your debriefes are really very cool, new and refreshing. Love that format!

[@janpersico2941]

mix between your humor and memes are gold. i appreciate the honesty at all points

[@colemantrebor6574]

A friendly competition with some team GB athletes could be fun. A collab doing Erin McNeice vs Bouldering Bobat would be great to watch and also good for your channel. I always loved the old Catalyst Climbing videos where Louis would go to a new gym and try to flash all the climbs. That would be fun as well

[@stoutlager6325]

Keep it up with these debriefs. They're great. And big congratulations on the bronze today in Seoul! And double congratulations on this season in general!

[@neaituppi7306]

I am into climbing, and learn stuff from Erin, just watching her climb. As I do other climber channels. The talking part is like when I watch chess players go through a game they played. I know how to play, but I have almost no idea what they are talking about.

[@stevehill8411]

My daughter and I were lucky enough to go to Prague, and we were gutted for you about the appeal. But we were delighted to have seen you climb, and when you kindly agreed to having a pic taken with her, you really made her day! (although I think we may have disconcerted you by asking about 5 seconds after you’d arrived into the athletes’ spectator zone…)

[@hephaistose10]

yey a new video ! it was so great seeing you getting your first medail in the seoul cup ! huge congrats :) . its great to hear that you took the disappointment in prague so well , such a good mental . looking forward for more climbing video once the comp season end :)

[@anaundercover363]

Truly a wonderful debrief I really enjoy your mind set when it comes to climbing, it's so refreshing and interesting to really get to hear a professional athlete's opinion. Hopefully you enjoy your Pokemon endeavors and some vacation time!

[@themagicalmystery3936]

That Elmo clip had me cackling 😂😂 regardless of Prague. congrats on your bronze in Seoul! 🤩 such a crazy turnout with your Asian superpowers obviously!!

[@ceciliawang6541]

The first World Cup podium! Congrats 🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩

[@estiedawson6169]

so much love from alaska! love watching you climb and hearing your debriefs is really great because you seem to learn something from everything/just do something because you love it!

[@casualking173]

Another brilliant debrief. Congratulations at soul as well. You did amazing. Can’t wait for that debrief

[@thezigzagwanderer000]

Thanks for another debrief, I enjoy these insights quite a lot. Looking forward to the Seoul one! As for other climbing videos, I always really appreciate comparisons between pro climbers and good-but-not-great climbers. I think that format highlights the minutia which makes a huge difference, but can take years to learn. Thanks again for the videos!

[@ssssundae]

so happy for you after watching your seoul boulder performance! absolutely incredible job, and i can't wait to see you on lead as well! i'm so glad I found your channel after the olympics :)

[@mairsilpretner6119]

Really cool to hear your thought after the comps! Personally I always love to watch training climbs too, especially if there's a boulder that takes a few attempts, and you can tell a little bit about what happened, and what you're planning to change for the next attempt, those are super insightful. Also put in as many little Elmo clips as you like, that was such a fun little break from an otherwise pretty serious video.

[@fuzzy-emma]

really love your climbing！rooting for you and congrats the podium in Seoul, you are a real inspiration

[@wenzhang225]

Glad you can talk about it with big smiles now. It's definitely one of the most dramatic stories lol. Yessss, more training videos please! They're super inspirational! And big, big congrats on the World Cup podium 🤗👏 Good luck in lead, and wish you the best holiday!

[@ActuallyMichael]

These videos are great, I'm so glad that you're doing KZbin!

[@matteobecchi1210]

Loving these debriefs! And congrats for the podium in Seoul 💪🏻

[@heaaatherchong]

amazing job in seoul! i audibly cheered when i found out!!! so incredibly well deserved! good luck in lead, rooting for ya always!!!

[@DrMattBug]

Great mindset going forward. The experiences are invaluable, even the ones that suck. And you've got your podium place now to tick off the list too 😊

[@PotatoTK]

McBeast on the podium, good job!

[@lekanteto]

Thank you for the insights into what's going on in a top level athlete's head. I like your character.

[@rhettetherington1351]

These debrief videos are great. Congrats on your podium finish👍

[@azndraon]

rooting for you erin!!! you were so close to gold in seoul, you got that next time for sure

[@dagmarcirlan440]

so cool to hear all the details! ❤

[@jayb555-r9k]

Congrats on the podium! Let’s gooooooooooooo 🎉

[@belowyellowbells]

Great work in Seoul! That 3rd boulder was a shin destroyer haha

[@flwi]

I'm impressed by your strong mindset. Going from 4th to 10th is a tough pill to swallow (I imagine) and it seems like you're handling it well. Good luck in Korea!

[@Silly-s8n]

"My favorite place to compete is Asia". That's the Pokemon Go talking. A maybe obvious video idea would be to check out Magnus' gym in Norway. Ideal place for vacation too.

[@Confelicity_]

I'm positive that in Seoul 2025, we are going to have a better accounting of how much of a beast you are in sports climbing. Unleash it, Erin! ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@ozozcoz]

you did so amazing in prague !! i really love your climbing :))

[@Jam....]

I'd love to see the odd outdoor crag vid. Loving the content though Erin :)

[@wonderfulland6127]

Congratulations on winning the Bronze Medal!!🎉 It was a pity to see you shivering in the cold 🥶

[@Shaunaisbae]

Imagine going to Soul for a world cup in climbing at this age, I personally can't believe it, must feel so abnormal!!

[@rica3947]

I was there in Prague and was so gutted your zone on W3 got removed, it honestly didn't seem fair to me after rewatching it. But congrats on your medal in Seoul, that was so amazing!!!

[@jimmyrustle165]

When I saw it live I said to my friends it was gonna get appealed and I think it will get removed, but when I watched it after I felt the same, she grabs it and bumps her hand up it before trying to go up with the left, that bump to me shows control but I actually don't know if there's a ruling on moving from the zone with the same limb.

[@dorveille1]

@@jimmyrustle165 I looked up the rules. It's about *using* a hold to establish a stable body position. For example, if you just touch a hold when you are stable, that's not necessarily using it for stability. So touching it twice (i.e. bumping) isn't automatically using it for stability either (we've all been there!). In slo mo, Erin's thumb and fingers are slipping at the first contact, and her thumb at least is slipping during the second contact while she releases the left hand, goes for the next hold and falls. So I think the judges got it right on appeal, though I would have loved to have seen her in the final.

[@fstew1]

I like to watch people having fun and enjoying climbing if that helps orient future content

[@deplo4]

If you could post some more training videos on plyometric/compstyle movement training that would be awesome!!

[@m1l917]

Was great to have you in Prague 🇨🇿, hope next time too

[@KungFuPandaria]

I just got around to watching the Prague comp and I have to say the decision on the appeal seems a little tight to me. My understanding is that the zone is awarded once it has been used to either achieve or change a stable body position, and watching that video it seems pretty obvious that a change of stable body position is achieved just before the second bump of the right hand on the zone. Of course I am a brit so not exactly impartial 😀

[@SRclimbs]

Good job and keep up the hard work!

[@brendanacord]

2024 kind of the year of Erin NGL

[@wolfgangpokorski4483]

I always felt these "appeal" rules were shit. Here's why they have to be changed. There never can and will be 100% justness. But this afterward-correction bullshit is just annoying for everyone. Anyways, best reaction yesterday, very nice and deserved first podium ❤🎉

[@zeitwidrig]

You can check off podium now, congrats!

[@leo_skinner]

The Mcbeast was robbed !

[@eatmykwad]

Wanto to see a holiday video trying not to climb haha

[@Tarabulus]

A quick scan reveals no animals, but a furry Muppet. I'll take it :) Happy to watch an elite athlete less than half my age who seems like she would be a great role model for my daughter.

[@Tarabulus]

Having watched the Muppet scene now, I... I... I got nothing.

[@oleanonymus3014]

You could do some non-rock climbing stuff. Ninja Warrior, on trees or these outside parks perhaps

[@hamidgarcia1]

I really like knowing your thoughts around competitions. Moreover, I like very much the training session with Louis Parkinson.

[@morgancampbell3505]

congrats for the medal in seoul!

[@LoganC-wl9ns]

Congrats on bronze!

[@opiniononion]

I don't know if it's just me but you look really tall on screen but ifsc says you're shorter than Natalia?

[@votth]

soo an upheld appeal on a zone beat "Elmo" like that... what will happen when an appeal on podium happens? 💀

[@Vincent-v2q1e]

Marks don’t help. Juste think about good points, and what to improve.

[@kwanjkh]

This comment isn't about climbing but which is your favourite Pokemon? 😂
