These videos of Louis trying outdoor climbing stuff with Neil are top tier!!
glad to see at 11:25 Neil keep the strand in hand. sure he is comfortable enough with a grigri to never worry and to arrest a rope if one begins to travel, but has been good to see maintaining control in a relaxed position. Pretty consistent professional videos showing hands free grigri usage.
Ever since learning about ice climbing I’ve wondered whether something like this existed but every time I thought of it I’d forget and not do any research. Thanks for the introduction! It looks extremely hard and technical, especially with the clunky shoes. My respect for Neil just doubled, same goes for Louis; that was amazing to watch! Can’t wait to see Neil taking Louis ice climbing.
Louis outside of his comfort zone and struggling like us mortal climbers. Priceless.
To be fair he struggled on a route graded M9, which I will probably never achieve 😂. What a beast!
@@amberblackford9999 totally agreed. Outside of my league as well.
To get to the top is one climbing discipline takes so much effort, but to see guys such as Neil, Tim Emmett, Dave McLeod, John Arran, etc excelling with multiple skill-sets is incredible. Louis is beginning to feel the sense of adventure, and could be on such a journey himself.
I do drytooling with climbing shoes, i know that it wont translate at ice climbing, but its so much more fun and feels a lot more secure when you feel what you are standing on
"Wow, great sensitivity on these!" Hahaha fantastic stuff as always. Love seeing neil!
Such a cool video! Neil is just absolutely awesome, I love your videos with him. Also really cool to see you trying something way outside your comfort zone. You guys both smashed it!
Fantastic stuff Louis,. Dry tooling, such a full body work out its ridiculous. Glad it rained on you so we hopefully get to see you with Neil in the lakes again some day.
Looks scary as hell. I would definitely impale myself.
this has given me a massive insight into dry tooling . i really need to try this looks amazing 👍
The audio is almost mute, especially the intro.
Trad climbing would be another cool thing to see!
The audio volume is a bit inconsistent between clips
Absolutely brilliant 👍
Good effort guys! little typo the route is 'first blood' blood line is further left. 💪
what a good effort Louis! gotta go back for the redpoint now!
🎶 Louis’ gonna ice climb this winter 🎶
My mouth was hanging open for the entire vdo. This looks incredibly, awkward, hard and super intense. Bravo.
Is dry tooling similar in difficulty to ice climbing or perhaps a bit harder?
Epic guys. Gutted I missed seeing this session go down in person.
How would you suggest someone start to learn dry tooling? Any courses on offer worth suggesting. Assuming most of us rock climbers don't actually know anyone who dry tools and could teach us.
I don't like in the UK thus may be different but not sure I have ever seen any offerings for dry tooling courses. There have been some in the gym, using tethered wooden axes with rubber edges and climbing shoes, but depends on your gym. Otherwise it is simply know someone who does or who has the gear. As long as you can set up a top rope, you should be good with a pair of ice axes besides your usual equipment of helmet, harness, and shoes (you do not need crampons necessarily, but many dry tool crags are seeping masses of choss.
Good on ya, Luis! Gave it one hell of a go, cheers!
Good effort!
Great stuff gents. I can TOTALLY see the appeal!
Damn I thought Neil was joking when he said time to get on a M9 !!!
Loved the episode!
Considering ag1 to deal with lack of vitamins with the diet I'm trying to get on. I'll be keeping the calories in calculation though.
Louis, if it makes you feel any better, ice climbing feels MUCH more secure, you’ll definitely have a good time trying it
Damn, fking good effort Louis, thought you was in there.
what would you say the best climbing gym in london is?
No idea how you didn't drop a tool there haha
So basically aid climbing
I recently tried this at my gym (though with leather loops instead of metal axe head but same handle) and this video makes me feel much better 😂 so intensely hard and brutal
Are u guys boning
I am also curious to know.
This doesn't look fun at all. The shoes especially look really annoying.
Most underrated video on this channel :(
