    Truly an honor and a privilege climbing with you Magnus 🙏. Thanks for coming to visit us in Las Vegas! Next time, we'll bring you to the Refuge, or better yet, bouldering in Red Rock. This climbing sesh ranks up there as one of the best days of my life. Don't tell my wife, but it's up there with my wedding 😂. Also, no one ever gives you enough credit for your video editing.

      Agreed. These guys would be very solid amateur climbers in a typical experienced group - me and my old guy friends occasionally surprise each other with a V6 send or good V7 attempt, but typically are working V4 and V5 in a fairly graded gym. Seeing the difference on the red V6 route is a good demonstration of the difference in pro-level strength, knowing exactly how to position, beta, etc. Most of us would look like the tall guy - not sure exactly how to start and flailing a lot until you see it done right.

    While I enjoyed the video, one thing I liked about the Tokyo video was that they didn't seem to know you were coming. While it's probably difficult given your popularity, in this video it seemed like they were expecting you so you had a presentation compared to a normal climber's first experience. While I doubt it happened, it could also affect your honest review of a route since the owners of the gym are right next to you. Still enjoyed the video though!

You mentioned how one of the climbers was fully crimping and you asked if he had been injured. I am working towards climbing upper 5.12s and I just had a finger injure (from monos). I am wondering what your thoughts are on finger training/care - should I always avoid full crimps, even when projecting climbs over my onsight ability? I'd love to hear what works for you.

The Pad is super clean and friendly, but the grades are all over the place and the quality is never consistent either. Refuge has great setting but there isnt much thought that goes into hold selection and is expensive for being so dingy. The gyms are rated in the vacuum of sub-par climbing gyms.

    I really don't know why I started watching this channel but it's really addicting lol.. I've never climbed and not actually planning to do so but I keep watching 😆

    Can we please get some lead climbing. 🙏 There has got to be plenty of people who enjoy watching it.

    So hard to tell how strong Magnus is until he climbs with people that climb a full v-grade higher than me and god damn it it looks so easy. I thought I had a chance but I don't.
    He could campus all my projects and probably run up all the slabs too.. In crocks..

    Very awesome to see Magnus at my home gym! Was sad to see we didn't have anything hard enough for him :(

    You should really try out Red Rock Climbing Center. It's an old, but amazing gym! The layout is unlike most other gyms and the features are cool!
