Molly's face when Aiden crushes the crimp problem. Priceless
like us, she contemplating in awe the strenght of aidan
Molly casually hanging from the Beastmaker edge 🥲
Ok definitely need more of Molly's really positive energy! Great video 😊
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Nice to see her climbing again!
that held dry fire was wild
The best action of all the boards videos combined
Has anyone noticed that “wow, that’s hard” in Aiden-esse directly translates as “ok, I’ll get it next go”??? Lol
😅 and 'Looks flipping well ard' means I'll flash it...
@@WEDGECLIMBING Exactly!! 🤣
"If you wanna make it in climbing stay off booze and women" -Aiden Roberts
Aiden's body control and quickness and precision in getting his feet back on after cutting is as incredible as his finger strength.
When Molly is shaking her head in disbelief, you know it's some impressive climbing!
Love that the underground UK training scene is dank cellars and disgusting woody's
😅
Quickly becoming my favourite climbing channel, love not only the climbing, but the production quality and cinematography are outstanding!
Thanks so much Jack!
Thats where the tape measure went!
😅 thief!
Wedge, another banger! As soon as Aiden comes back from Swiss, flashing his 8Cs, get him to do more board sessions. We need the psyche.
Thanks! 😅 Will do
love these cellar board session videos! :)
Glad you like them!
It really does show the level of climbing on display when Aiden flashes Alex's project!!
13:18 No cmon another one of these saves?
This should not be possible 😅
I watch this over the IFSC WC every day
I gotta be honest, these board climbing videos are some of the best climbing content videos on CZcams right now. Absolutely killer vibe with the basement colours, tight space and incredible chill personalities. Plus, it doesn't hurt that these climbing peeps are absolute monsters! Aiden... nuff said, but Molly is also killer!!
Thanks so much! Glad you like the vibe :) Plenty more to come...
That was completely off the planet; 'we're gonna screw on some thin air'..classic. Brilliantly motivating and so ridiculously understated.
Thanks!
Absolutely love these videos. Need Aidan board climbing siphoned directly into my brain
😅 thanks!
That’s what it feels like when you’re trained up to your potential.
It feels like it’s not a thing and anybody could do it.
A one handed half crimp hang is an amazing feat of training!
aidan: "wow thats hard"
and then proceeds to flash everything he said looks hard
Ah yes, finally we’re back in board business!
I first thought that was Jim‘s with a massive reset xD
Awesome video as always!
They do look remarkably similar! Glad you enjoyed 😁
So nice to see these clips now that we can no longer follow ifsc comps!
beautiful wall, good vibes. Now I'm hyped for my next climbing session
Glad to hear it!
I love watching board sessions on rest days. Pssssssssssssaaaaaaaaaaaa
💪💪
This makes me want to build a board so bad!
Do it!
Pure joy to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it 😁
@@WEDGECLIMBING Left the comment in the first minutes, but there's actually so much to comment on! Aidan looks strong as hell as always, and Molly's face when he flashed the 4-5mm hold problem is golden haha
All the problems look absolutely brutal, it'll never cease to amaze me how easy they look when climbed by Aidan, (and also Molly this time)
It's so good but unfortunately there will never be enough because I can't imagine being bored watching this, whether it's indoor or outdoor!
@@raphaelmardinli9921 Thanks so much! Yeah those two are something else on a board... More on the way :)
Rewatching this video, at 13:18 it's similarly ridiculous and also reminiscent of Jim on Appointment with Death x)
80085, sick name. And awesome video.
Thanks!
Potentially the greatest name for a boulder ever
@@johnshipley1389 true! Also “Father I Compress” is quite good.
Fuck the system is my second favourite after 80085
This is psyche straight to the veins
The Aiden " project" holds would be difficult to hold for may on a vertical wall. LoL
Many
Nice board setting!!
Crew vibes! 💪🏼
I will never forgive my sub-box for not showing me this immediately.
😅 glad you found it anyway 💪👌
@@WEDGECLIMBING I will always find your videos, don't worry ;)
@@duuplo 😅 glad to hear it 😁
Yeah boi we back!
such a bloody fantastic video lads!!
Cheers John!
Also, the outtakes are pretty good too!
best content board sessions
Thanks!
Great how much fun these are to watch, not the most exciting thing when it comes to B-roll or story telling. But a compelling watch and so much fun!
Cheers Jules!
06:33 that metal hook thing sticking out of the wall looks soooo dangerous :D :D
😅 probably wouldn't pass any regulations...
just love this film
Thanks!
Another top shelf video - loved it, keep crushing
Thanks!
Molly's board is awesome. All these gorgeous cellar boards give such hope for us trapped with tiny little home walls. I actually love this kind of content just looking at the holds people have and how their boards are set up. Super cool stuff. The nails-hard climbing is also pretty rad
Glad you enjoy the board vids!
What's your setup like?
@@WEDGECLIMBING Wedge!! Any idea what the width of most of these cellar boards are? I'm hoping to figure out what the minimum width is that I can get away with, and these seem like they are pushing that boundary. Thanks, any help would be so greatly appreciated!!!!
@@TheDrwpuma Jim's board is about 240cm by 240cm, which is roughly two full sheets of plywood. I'm not sure about Molly's, but it's very similar 👍
so sick! Loved the Alex Waterhouse cameo!
Thanks!
Well done guys! Great efforts! Awesome to watch how you worked together! Very good filming too!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Ok that looked so fun
Always good fun in the cellar 👌💪💪
So so cool
Thanks!
ANOTHER ONE !
Best climbing vid in a very long while! So much positive energy! Makes me wanna jump on a board and kill it! :D When is Aidan going back to Burden? :D
Thanks, glad to hear it got you psyched! I'm not sure, I imagine it won't be for a little while now
it's been 12 days and I am now officially frothing at the mouth for more board videos
I keep going back and watching all the old ones in order every now and then 😭
😅 I'm glad you're enjoying them! There's more on the way soon...
Big board vibe
Acc love Aiden⭐️
Sunday psych is high
Class again wedge. Not so much babes for me. More booze and vapes😂. Add in my grandad hips and u got ya self a steady plodder 😊
Thanks! Haha sounds like a winning combo...
Love that mosaic hold at 3:23, any idea where it's from? I'd love to buy artistic holds like that!
That was a trophy from the beastmaker footless festival a few years ago, so sadly not one you can buy anywhere
Fat sam the ladies man at it again. Love this channel - keep the psych coming!
😅 thanks! You forgot the PH and the 4 😉
banger
Thanks!
Love seeing a session on a board this size! Does anyone know if this is much bigger than the wideboyz freestanding walls? I have a deposit on one 😊
Glad you enjoyed! I think this board is a similar size, potentially a little taller 👍
How did Aidan get away with that slip at 13:19 ?
Do strong climbers just have access to other strong climbers houses or something
😅 a master key for all wads...
No it just so happens that lots of them live together 💪
How hard are some of these problems? The thing at 12:25 legit looks at least v14.
They didn't grade any of them, but it's safe to assume some are well into the 8s 💪💪
Late to the party. Hope its still popping 💀
It is now 😉
What are the trousers Aiden is wearing?
I think they’re the Terebone Joggers
What’s the size of the board ?
About two full sheets of plywood I think. Which is roughly 240cm by 240cm in total 👍
aidan's cuticles must hate him
😅
What's the angle of this board?
45 degrees I think 👍
This is getting ridiculous. Is there a crimp Aidan can't hold? Hanging 1arm for a warmup like iy's nothing wtf? I can barely hold myself on a bar...
Booze and woman. Dang so that’s why I’m useless on a board.

tf is up with these clickbait titles lol
No need to bait with Molly though :D
What was a clickbait ?
@@amvnumber1018 originally the title was « Has Aidan finally found his match? Board session… » Maybe they changed it, or i don’t remember well lol. I understood the term match in a relationship way, and i thought it was a bit corny to put it that way… still some real good quality content :)
That was the original title, it was intended in a has he met his match with regards to difficulty of board climbing/would Molly give him a run for this money. But after posting it I realized that some people might interpret it this way and didn't want to mislead 😅 Hence the change. Glad you enjoyed the vid regardless 😁
@@WEDGECLIMBING english ain't my mother tongue so i might be responsible for the misunderstanding aha. yeah loved the vid ! keep up the good work :)))
Black woman nice
