I want to see Pete and Tom competing again next! Also one of those mountain goats which can stand on vertical walls

[@macgyveriii2818]

HAHAH Yes, Pete & Tom vs. Mountain Goats in a Tag-Team Mountain Matchup!

[@Muck006]

Dont do the "clothes bit" then ... or else they will eat them and get sick.

[@ripemonkey]

My money is on the ibex!

[@5amJones69]

You mean Anna Hazelnutt?

[@EmilAbrahamsson]

The off-width jump start returns.. good choice Pete. Well fought, I’m looking forward to the next battle!

[@WideBoyz]

It's now a complete favourite 😂 inspired from Sweden 💪

[@Bobbzorzen]

I was just about to say, next competitor should be Emil :D

[@skymaze777]

Obviously we want to see o-dog in the competition next week

[@WideBoyz]

Haha...it'll come, and it'll be in the cellar. We're still waiting for his next UK trip

[@TheScotDrummer]

@@WideBoyz Someone needs to set a 9c here, he would be on the first plane out to have a go at it

[@Romplei]

@@WideBoyz that will be the video that breaks the internet.

[@RubixB0y]

Aww, I'd love to see Tom at least give the rest of Pete's route a try, even if there's no points! Great video though guys! Devilish problems and antics between the two of you

[@jinenjaninja5949]

i think this should be a regular episode as a guest i would like like to see Magnus

[@mikemoore-hehim1149]

winner plays guest ? :)

[@jinenjaninja5949]

@@mikemoore-hehim1149 I was thinking triple threat

[@chaosengine4597]

Or Erik

[@tronco1093]

Pete v Tom v Magnus! Pete’s pain tolerance might make him the winner 😂

[@jakery1234]

This was sick...what a time to be alive. Need Mari vs Olly next

[@WideBoyz]

That's a good shout actually!!

[@rogerpeppe]

I wonder if comp-style time limit (e.g. 4 minutes) might end up more fun than limiting the attempts. Tom's first two attempts were so quick!

[@FPSaddiction]

YESSSSS! More of this please

[@WideBoyz]

We can sort that

[@wixic111]

Didn't see the crack school episode about what to do when some joker puts their crocs in your climb :') Great video!

[@isabelnecessary5915]

This was great, loads of fun to watch!! Wouldn’t have minded seeing Tom finishing Petes problem, even once he’s lost the chance for any point

[@craigyeo]

I thought Tom's problem was completely ridiculous and then Pete somehow made something even more dastardly

[@rolfnilsen6385]

Pete did the first dyno with all the innate grace of falling timber - but it worked out. Great fun :-)

[@WideBoyz]

😂

[@evanlovleymeyers4781]

I feel like setting the problem gives an advantage and so it should be 3,2,1 points and working the other person's problem should be 4,3,2,1 points. And as a future idea. Maybe a game of "delete". (Start with problem X. Should be easy with lots of holds. Tom removes a hold and both climb, than Pete removes a hold and both climb. Repeat until one or both fail to climb the route. One redo.)

[@benwhiley9680]

That was great! 😁😁 The only possible improvement, is to have those score poses at the end repeatedly alternate between 2 frames/stills - proper 90's style not-animation.

[@masonluedke9712]

If only gyms set boulders as creative as this

[@kavali6320]

A jammed crack😮 is that a real thing or just a special Wide Boyz' malevolence😎😜? Both boulders were quite unique, great effort, both of you💪. I'd like to see Tom's given a chance to get even.

[@wibby2143]

Every video you put out could be this and I’d watch all of them

[@ParalyzedChopstick]

From the get-go it is clear that this is a quality video! So fun, love the atmosphere!

[@pauljakeman]

Agreed!

[@minihjalte]

I think a czech style Head to Head would be interesting, so Pete and Tom would both have to find a partner to do/create a problem with.

[@hidden_sense9839]

when I first read "czech style head to head", I was imagining a double head jam... which would be hilarious with almost anyone... and even better with Tom&Pete

[@blitzroute66]

This but with bobats.

[@smokeyriceballs5880]

Toms Problem looked so gnarly Hahaha

[@jrisner6535]

I think you shouldn't be the first to try your own boulder, gives the game away

[@WideBoyz]

Yep, good idea. We'll do that next time around 👍

[@jrisner6535]

@@WideBoyz great video though!

[@azaba2007]

exactly my thoughts. It would be interesting to see how they crack each other's betas

[@theclimbingleek]

Wide Boyz vs. O-Dog feat Josh Perry would be legendary 🤣 I tried a problem yesterday where you had to squeeze into the corner like at Pete's route. My shoulder still hurts from the cramp 😬

[@alanmobbs5812]

Wideboyz vs O-Dog is the showdown this channel needs!!

[@markharris2562]

Love the cheering-for-the-enemy and good vibes. Very cool moves!

[@leedarkin-miller7685]

[@eloytoro]

cant wait for the next wide boyz collab with pete and tom

[@kiyomimcfarlane1304]

Yes!! My favorite climbing video ever was the one where Magnus and Pete set problems for each other. It’s such a good concept. Glad to see another video like it. Love route setting videos.

[@heywoodlittle5439]

more of pete and tom! bring guests also, but make it a regular thing! you can have themes to the competitions too. this could turn into the next IFSC! the IFCC

[@alessandro2649]

I could watch you guys head to head every week and never complain 😁 good energy, sick climbing

[@alexpalmiter8677]

love the format! More!

[@tanmad21]

I love everything about this.

[@jodyshughes1]

That was sooo fun to watch! Someone should have stole the drill battery😃

[@basurabasura]

More of this!

[@JakeWinegrad]

This was fabulous. This is evidenced by the likes-to-dislikes ratio.

[@pierluigifogliato3670]

Awesome format Boyz!!!!!

[@MasterHatred]

Oh the excitement! Thanks guys for great video👍

[@dreads9536]

I liked how the intro voice over and music started quite abruptly as soon as I clicked play. It added to the frantic and time constrained nature of the video.

[@clin2017]

I am here and excited to watch the vid 😊 (broke my ankle from climbing and resting from surgery now so i’m checking for content constantly haha)

[@MrZephyr514]

These recent videos have been your best!

[@DominiqueRob347]

Great format!!

[@yungODB]

Amazing video Boys!

[@climberdna4405]

Pure gold.

[@shotgunosine]

This was a lot of fun, would love to see more! Next time you could each set half a traverse problem, and then you have to start from the side the other person set.

[@toreygroen6585]

Hey guys - Love this style video with the setting competition. Keep making videos you guys are great to watch and I don't even climb cracks! Much love from the US.

[@jasonfitton5422]

“Cracking” video😂😂😂. Great fun to watch and interesting problems. Do it again 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

also trad princess! and while she is out there get her in the cellar and do some videos about different techniques you guys use. the last videos with her were awesome!

[@martipg3866]

does not matter how many times I see it: cracks + dynos are mesmerizing!!

Pete made his peace and thereby released himself from a prison of hate and resentment. The 12 years of imprisonment was a grave injustice towards a good human being. May his legacy live on for his family. Thank you Mike for paying tribute to Pete in such a respectful way.

Are chockstones for comp routes the new anti-Janja defense? Make the flash significantly harder than subsequent attempts?

[@climbjacksprat]

Wow this is a great concept and idea!! Really fantastic boulders too .... would love to see one in that style in the IFSC circuit. Def bring in the regular KZbin crews to try but it’d be cool to see what someone like Dave MacLeod or Neil Gresham would come up with

[@GlowingShutter]

Oh god I want to see such problems at the olympics (especially dyno into a stack).

[@SpiritAnimalGO]

Is this the birth of a banger new competition series? Because I'm all in and subscribing if so!

From the comments, it sounds like we'll be doing more 😅

[@JakubSkowron]

[@natef95]

I love that bouldering is a competitive sport but it has evolved in a way that effort is so honorable that even when Pete is crushing Tom's problem Tom offers nothing but encouragement.

[@prestonblesh4404]
