WHERE HAS HE BEEN!!👀 Japanese Climbing Legend Kokoro Fuji🇯🇵

[@CrispyCrimpsClimbing]

Epic! Kokoro is truly one of the kindest pro's I've met and I think you described it perfect when you said he carried no ego despite having accomplished so many incredible things. Love the videos 🔥

[@Jonathan_sin88]

One of the most humble and down to earth climber I’ve ever met for sure

[@rokkimaize7333]

Despite the language barrier the emotion and honesty really came through in this video. Man I hope we continue to see Kokoro do great things

[@Jonathan_sin88]

We had someone there to translate and all but he really wanted to say things in his own words and all so I really appreciated it!

[@alexandragloth2483]

@@Jonathan_sin88 that was also the impression I got while watching the video! I admire his courage; I'm just learning Japanese and don't even dare to speak without a camera.

[@uncletobsy]

When Jonathan releases a video, its a good day

[@Jonathan_sin88]

Hahaha thank youuu🥹🥹🥹

[@b0604]

Kokoro's always been one of my favourites to watch. Wishing him the best in his comeback to the comp scene.

[@Jonathan_sin88]

the come back is gonna be mad

[@031075lyc]

Great video! Kokoro is my favorite professional climber, and it’s rare to see this type of content with him. He’s so chill lol. Also I noticed that your video quality has drastically improved over the year, great work! Can’t wait to see more ❤

[@Jonathan_sin88]

I think it’s quite rare for him to do any content, still feel like I lived in a dream haha

[@erikcarp9359]

This was sooo cool to see! Kukoro Fuji won the first climbing competition I ever watched (Moscow 2021) and it absolutely blew my mind. It was a truly incredible performance

[@Jonathan_sin88]

Kokoro seems like such a wholesome guy. Hopefully he succeeds with his goals of making back onto the Japanese team and sending burden.

[@Paahtis]

Havent been to that gym myself, I should probably check it out some day.

[@Jonathan_sin88]

It’s worth a trip for sureee

[@Hayduke0]

Looking strong Jonathan! What training tips (from the pros you've climbed with) have you continued to use? I've been trying to incorporate some of Tomoa's stretches he showed you into my workout lol

[@Jonathan_sin88]

I think consistency and like being mindful of each decision you make when climbing, including stretching, what climbs you gonna do, why you fall nd all that

[@Gulzath]

Sick bro ^^

[@n3v3r1s4]

great guest! =)

[@ayuxoxo]

dude seems hella chill

[@Jonathan_sin88]

[@dglasti833]

Any chance we can have a more detail of the warm up with the pros? Hope we can learn something from it.

[@Jonathan_sin88]

perhaps something in the futureeee

[@EikeRo]

Great video! love to see him climb!

[@labanix]

i would like to see a more extensive view into his warm up routine he did with you :)

[@Jonathan_sin88]

Perhaps I’ll upload that somewhere in the futureeee

[@Jonathan_sin88]

I'm going to Tokyo in a few months and was wondering if anyone had some good gym recommendations for a non cracked climber (e.g. v4 max) - I'm still gonna sus out both bpumps but any other nice ones lmk!! Thanks :)

[@Jonathan_sin88]

Plenty of options haha, CHECCK OUT MABOO!!!

[@alexteo4537]

[@TheCadocas]

[@joakkim2642]

If only 5 Japanese athletes can represent Japan in a world cup, then why are there many semifinals with like 10 Japanese athletes?

[@pyfffiiiii]

I believe its different in lead climbing meaning they have more slots available. That’s why there are a lot of lead wc finals with 6 or 7 Japanese athletes competing

[@colemantrebor6574]

Looking at the results for the boulder world cup in Prague last week, there were 9 Japanese climbers climbing in qualification. So it's not just lead climbing.

[@kwongshuchung]

It is a new rule for the next year's world cup series 😂

[@Jonathan_sin88]

Certain athletes have their spots already based on result from previous season, but I think the rule is that if you didn’t make top 10 in the world the year prior, you don’t get a spot for YOU. If you ranked top 40, you earn an extra spot for your country but then it’s down to your federation to decide whether or not to send you or someone else. So I think in Japan, making top 40 in the world is just not good enough for them so who gets the spot is determined by top whatever number in the Japan Cup, disregarding athletes with their own spots. Definitely not 100% sure on this info but that’s my understanding and I’m pretty sure the rules are changing
