    9:50 They should really just set grades upon how red Adam Ondra's face gets when he climbs

    • @hellofhonour
      @hellofhonour Před 6 lety +22

      But how would they grade moderate difficulty then? No redness

      Hahaha

    • @lucylane7707

      Captain MacMillan no red for him is like hyper red for non-Adam Ondra climbers Lol

    • @DaftFader
      @DaftFader Před 4 lety +2

      Or how often he screams...

    • @challengemasters775
      @challengemasters775 Před 4 lety

      His head is only mainly red because he’s upside down idiot there something called gravity ya know. Like I said MOST of the time but not all so ur comment applys to about 5 perhaps 10% of all his face redness

    Heck yes! I love how tight knit the climbing community seems to be across the world.

  • @linga42

    I watched this and then straight onto the live stream, then saw Hannes Belaying. The master at work!

    • @yannikbaltes3552

      I just got recently into climbing and yesterday i saw a video of this route and wondered how Adam is gonna do on this, one day later i get video :D :D :D :D

  • @mousem40mousem40
    @mousem40mousem40 Před 7 lety +11

    Absolutely love this, up close and personal with Ondra, talking you through his thought process. One of your best videos yet Eric, amazing!

  • @thomasduncan1855
    @thomasduncan1855 Před 7 lety +220

    Is Adam gonna hang around after he tries it tonight? A bouldering episode with him and Nikken would be amazing

  • @nicklozica8914
    @nicklozica8914 Před 7 lety +66

    He seems calmly frustrated

  • @Rainbowstunting
    @Rainbowstunting Před 7 lety +726

    I don't understand why he keeps looking for solutions while trying that roof section, he's already wearing a pair.

  • @venomdog747

  • @nathans1764
    @nathans1764 Před 7 lety +5

    I've been watching you for a while now and I must say you guys out in Sweden have one of the best if not the best climbing channels on CZcams! Your training videos have helped my technique significantly and your other videos are super interesting! Keep up the amazing work!!!

  • @jmlesfrite
    @jmlesfrite Před 7 lety +19

    I wish they would give you a camera to film him during the event, so nice to have such close up shots in a route

    • @StuffSlimey
      @StuffSlimey Před 7 lety +5

      jmlesfrite Eric has two cameras of his own, he could've filmed. However, he wouldn't be able to use the lift to film during the event since it would block the audience and live stream camera, so no close-ups anyway.
      And tbh I wouldn't want him to as he hadn't slept for over two days when he filmed this.

  • @kjr8677
    @kjr8677 Před 7 lety +11

    really funny to see adam climbing on plastic:D. usually the videos with him are on the rocks or at certain worldcups^^.I'm quite envious, that you can see adam face to face:D. Hopefully you will make more videos with him👌. Thanks a lot for this video:).

  • @kavali6320
    @kavali6320 Před 3 lety

    Jaw-dropping! Footage, music, beta chit-chat! Awesome Adam plus Eric capturing everything perfectly on film and asking the right questions at the right time! So well done! It's a pity you can give a thumbs up only once!

    Really terrific intro, great capturing of the action (slo-mo is on point here, too), and fun interactions with Adam. I really enjoyed this and can tell the time you put into these videos is well-spent.
    Where is Liam in this one? :)

  • @Cabose426
    @Cabose426 Před 4 lety +1

    What the status of this route? Is it still there?! I remember there being a bounty on this boulder for the first to send it and it would go up each year, but I still see nothing in the news about it yet... So curious if it's still there and maybe @EricKarlssonBouldering should make another video about it!

  • @maximecautres715
    @maximecautres715 Před 7 lety +18

    He has a really strange version of the la sportiva solution, it's not the normal solution's heel and there is the S-Heel technology. Maybe a new prototype from la sportiva?

    • @TheMrHannez
      @TheMrHannez Před 7 lety +5

      Well spotted sir. Yeah they seem odd. Hopefully a re-master of the solutions soon to be released! =)

    • @StuffSlimey
      @StuffSlimey Před 7 lety +14

      Jonah Husak It's not recommend since you could easily hurt yourself. And it won't count as sending the route. But since he's just testing it out, it's fine.
