Awesome video Eric!! Love the intro with the old clips🤩
first
Hi Magnus
must be beautifully nostalgic
Love to see yo try hard, so cool.
Amazing Boulder 🤩
Of course we want to see that trip in Fontainebleau happening!
Like is it really a question? Ahah
DO IT!
Here for the Font trip!
With a bit of luck, they asked to hype us but they are actually currently doing it!@@qotsa1234
YES
Magnus has that sparkle in his eyes when he talks about climbing and training that I haven't seen from him in awhile. Great to see him falling in love with it all over again.
Thought the same! So cool to see
Honestly, I have a hope/think since seeing him 1:1 with Dave Macleod (who I personally knew when he was an emerging E7/E8/E9 climber.. long stories, but he caught me once in an inverted trad fall... which his "go for it" attitude also had a role in.. but.. I digress).
You saw how he told Magnus to lead Rhapsody after a TR...
But Dave told Magnus he is STILL getting stronger mid 40's. He is ONLY reaching a plateau.
Magnus eyes lit up.
Magnus has ANOTHER 10 years of strength improvement if he stays injury free and trains.
And Dave has had injuries since I knew him. Magnus says he's not yet been injured.
Magnus: you can do 9c+.
p.s. probably sounds grumpy. Dave saved my life as a belayer.
Huge gratitude.
I flipped, and fell on trad gear inverted, and he caught me. Thanks Dave.
@@PB-sk9jn Not necessarily muscularly stronger, but from what Tom Randall has said his endurance just gets better and better. It'd be nice to see Magnus do more outdoor sport and even Trad climbing with this in mind
if buying rugne means more videoslike this coming out, I'm ready to drive my bank to the ground
Your bank, not your bank account. We all just rob our local banks and give Magnus the money to become world leader.
-wz9mp... AI bot much.... Lol.
I’m on board with that
Shipping prices on the chalk is killer. Having to spend $120 in chalk to get “discount” shipping is crazy.
Nikken, with the absolute master-level setting.
Magnus with the incredible strength, skill and determination.
and Erik, with the incredible storytelling through editing. You don't get enough props for what you do. This video was a journey and genuinely had me wanting to cheer at the end.
This collab was everything I'd hoped it would be and more!
You know the setting’s amazing when you can make an entire (great) video projecting one indoor boulder
It just felt like a masterclass :)
Embracing aging … is difficult to do gracefully … I started climbing at 35 … now 40 … it’s like you relearn how your body work … so cherish your youth …
its crazy because nikken is an absolute beast and it looked like he was at his limit for a lot of moves and magnus made them look easy like he always does but then magnus goes out with shawn raboutou and can barely do a single move that shawns breezing up its just amazing to see the skill difference between top level athletes
Dude right?! So crazy seeing these monsters compared to each other it's like holy fuck y'all are STRONG strong!!
Absolutely! I once met a female pro climber from my country and we tried some boulders together (7b-7c range). She demolished me and i felt like a weak sack of poop. When I saw her in competition with janja it felt like there was the same skill gap as with me and her, which is insane to me.
climbing is a great example of "there's always a bigger fish" lol
Been waiting for this collab since the original one 6 years ago again. So glad to see you guys climbing again with everyone being stronger and having developed new skills. Super psyched!!
I could barely believe that it has been that long.
Audio engineering tip: sometimes when your voices are having trouble cutting through the music it makes sense to carve out a frequency band in the EQ that you'll lower the the music and boost the voices. Individually, they'll sound terrible, but together they might be more distinct while still filling the frequency spectrum.
We need that trip to font!
This was everything I could have asked for in an EKB x Mag collab. Seeing Magnus try hard on an indoor prob was super cool, but honestly I'm most impressed with Nikken these days. So much power, phenomenal setter, and god-like hair.
PETITION: you must have that collab at least once a year !
It's crazy to look back on that time. So much nostalgia, brings back good, good memories 😊 I'm glad you're still here, Eric. And I'm SO glad to see you all get together again ❤
Today just got better. Super happy to see you guys connecting again, and it was really nice seeing you get to throw down a little in his video. Miss seeing you climb dude! Now I'll stop typing and just enjoy!
This is just genuine feel good content. Like these guys could sit on the mats and just look at the boulders for thirty minutes and it would be amazing!
It’s nice to see Magnus actually having to work for an ascend rather than just flashing everything. It is good to see that no matter how good someone gets, there is always room for improvement and things they will struggle with. That’s actually encouraging to those of us just starting out, that even the best started somewhere and had to do projects above their current comfort zone to get better.
this was such a good video!!! magnus seemed so much more comfortable in this video with just eric and nikken, the vibes were awesome. great vid
Happy to see magnus so happy climbing again
You've outdone yourself on this one Eric. I want to appreciate your editing, if you've done this yourself. The choice of music, the shots, it all felt so calming. The music especially, it made me feel things I haven't in a while. Thanks for doing what you do, my brother. Hope to see more of you on camera. Love from India!
The video is great, but for me the music felt a bit too depressing. Maybe to start off, but later I was hoping for a bit more up beat snd positive.
@@goosjer I felt that the music helped build the anticipation.
It’s almost sad seeing videos like this, it’s so clear to see how much Magnus loves just hanging out and doing this yet feels kinda pigeon holed to hitting the algorithm. I hope he finds more time to just have fun.
magnus has not aged one bit
Just started the video and there are almost tears in my eyes. So beautiful to see where it started and where it is now :) Eric you are an amazing creator, and this group of friends/youtubers is just lovely to watch
Superb video. Great to see you back together.
Get that trip to font organised!👍
8 years later, Eric still is one of the best climbing youtuber it never feels like you're just watching people climb. There's so much personality here, people are always humble and interesting. There's a story and characters let you in in the conversations. I forget that I'm watching through a screen, I feel like I'm there in the moment.
you deserve a much bigger audience with your videos Eric, this was a treat! Really good music and angles as always.
is there a track list anywhere? looking for the one starting at 4:50
That first clip is literally one of my favorite moments on climbing youtube! So siked to see you guys back together!
8:40 that smile in genuine
We have missed that inspired/inspiring smile somewhat ;-)
so cool to see magus actually trying hard on something
“A shopping list of Magnus’ favourite moves” Love it!
Dream collab ;) Happy faces, an exquisite boulder and great climbing. I'd like to see this reunion as an annual event ;) Rewatched the videos from six years ago✌️and now looking forward to the joint sessions in Fontainebleau with great anticipation.
Magnus is just a whole different kind of breed
So excited for this one! I remember watching the first collab so many years ago and loving it.
This video gave me so good vibes. It made me think about following my dreams. Super inspiring Eric and Magnus, thank you both.
I always love your editing decisions. Just makes for a great experience every time I watch one of your videos
It's crazy how strong Magnus still is, even though he hasn't done more than "staying in shape". That Nikken has definitely improved a lot, but is arguably still "weaker" while looking like an absolute beast.
I do think Emil has surpassed Magnus in bouldering and power, but Magnus probably does laps around them in sport :D
Not that it matters of course, but it's cool to see the progression.
This is the feel I was hoping for from Magnus' video! So much more personal and familiar! Great job as always Eric!
It's probably because Magnus no longer edits the videos himself. It does make a difference.
@@boogaloo4640No, I think its because he knows them from back in the day and he has kept up with their growth. This was like a long overdue visit.
Fucking awesome. Magnus is still such a beast of a climber even though most of his focus has been on other endeavours
great vid eric! Love your channel, have been watching it for years. Awesome seeing Nikken getting even better at setting! Just great, cheers!
Such a great collab vid!! Absolutely loved the setting break down too!
This video had such a nostalgic feel, the Magnus, Eric and Nikken we all first fell in love with watching
Sometimes it's easy to forget how strong and skilled Magnus really is, given his humbleness
OMG, my psyche-levels skyrocketed when Magnus said he wants to train to get stronger again!
So cool to be able to see Magnus trying hard like that on a boulder. Thank you, Nikken
I love how well he explains his thought process of solving the boulders!
You can tell the admiration between Nikken and Magnus.
That boulder is a masterpiece!
Wooow! Nikken didn’t pull any punches! :p Really cool to see magnus trying hard! As someone who was there close to the beginning, your evolution is still a privilege to witness 😊🎉
Love this! I watch Magnus a lot and he looks so comfortable and happy with you Eric. I'd love to see more content of you guys together.
So good! I love watching good climbers struggle on a climb, it makes the content much more relatable
That chalk commercial was...smooth? 😅 love this.
Could it be any better? Coming back from a bouldering session and finding this gem of a video in my feed! Great one, Eric!
i love that they wanted to make such a good climb for magnus that they used any color available
Should coordinate with Magnus set up some hard ass problems for him, to prep Magnus to climb something crazy with Adam Ondra outside that he hasnt done. I'd pay 10 bucks to see a 90min movie on Magnus sending something hard as hell with Adam Ondra, and trainin montages of him doing your boulders and routes.
It’s always a good day when a new EKB video comes out! Love the video, love the storytelling and love how at ease you all are with each other.
you guys have such good chemistry! love to see it! great route setting as well!
Loving the EKB editing, song choices etc. Very enjoyable to watch 👍
YES! Definitely would watch a great Fontainebleau team outing!!!!! Great video guys. Magnus keep rocking it man, you are an inspiration to so many climbers.
Any video that starts with Magnum Meatball yelling at people to do the pink one in the corner, is a top level video
Sometimes, you just need the right people to push you. Good collab
I've been waiting for this collab so many years! Hell yeah!
It's so nice to watch the old videos, they have the a different kind of touch to them
Fontainebleau would be a cool video!
Love that place :)
Great reunion climbing session! You two should do more together for sure...maybe fountains bleu
Sounds like the consensus is an epic team trip to Fontainebleau
"and then it finishes out with kind of a meatball power sequence"
We know exactly what you did there, Nikken.
Absolutely great video, brought back many memories of watching you guys so many years ago
Awesome video! And yes - go to Font together! That would be so incredible cool!
Truly as masterpiece Eric. Terrific job and story telling. Thanks all involved, Eric, Nikken, Magnus
Wow! Absolutely loved this video! Can't wait to see the trip to Font!
great video. awesome job Nikken, Magnus and Eric!
I like how Magnus is chalked up all the way up to his elbow :D
This is an incredible video for so many reasons. Def a world class set boulder, really amazing and Nikken climbed it so well too. Well produced by Eric, the shots and angles and synced with the music was lit. Thank you all
As a long-time subscriber to both of your channels, I can't describe how happy I was when Rungne started sponsoring you guys (and Emil). It just feels right.
This was something special
I started climbing 2 years ago and fell in love with the video from Nikken and Magnus, for the true fans i didnt have to wait 6years but even 2 years was long enough for me. Production is spot on as well. Thanks guys, love from Australia
Time flies! Happy ya'll were able to collab, hopefully many more collabs to come.
Been watching a few years now - you guys all look insanely strong. Props to the hard work
Absolute banger video. It brought me back to old magnus 😊.
Awesome! Lookin' forward to the Fontainebleau trip and trying to get back in the 'old' shape. As AdamO also mentions in other vlogs: "you are ((still) so good,, you should train more!"
Sidenote: guess I'll have to order Rungne online, having no idea if anyone sells it in the Netherlands....
And great to see that the Swedish crew is able to inspire Magnus into going more hard core as we love to see!
Really it's been some time I have seen Magnus so inspired....
I would like regular collabs please. Every other month or something would be INSANE! This stuff is SO freaking good.
To add my voice to the choir, a trip to font is a must at this point.
Great video, Eric! Great setting, Nikken!
Good times 😊
Dude I love the second collaboration. I can’t believe I’ve been watching you guys for more than five years now.
Fontainebleau with Nikken Magnus Emil Erik and the boys.... sounds like a video for the ages, cant wait for it to happen
Amazing as always! The immediate asking for Nikken to move there was hilarious 😂
Btw yeah a Font video series would be spectacular
This was simply outstanding. Well done all of you. Keep the collabs going because this is some of the best climbing content available!
more magnus and nikken collabs pls!
super nice video eric!
i couldn't really believe that it's been that long since your first video ^^
definitely want to see those two making a video together soon! It was really enjoyable to watch!
So nice of Magnus to keep the shirt on and actually fail a couple of times to make the video more dramatic and exiting.
A font collab would be sooo nice to watch!!! Let it happen :)))
There was a definite excitement seeing you guys climb together, so wild ! crasy fun to watch
Good job Eric! And I‘m such a big fan of Magdust. I love the soft feeling, it sticks so well and what I really like, are all of these small chunks I can break in between tries. 🎉
Great edit and so nice to see you both climbing together 👌 Fontainebleau yes please 😀
Font vid would be a dream come true!
It's feels like a distant memory that old video but I still remember it, trip to Font would be a DREAM!
This was an expensive one for me haha. Just got a bunch of stuff from you!
Nice music touch 14:40
omg those old clips are so nostalgic, such a simpler time.
6:36 You don't often see shaking hand for Magnus but it happens here!
Watching Magnus is just a wholesum experience, he seems like a genuinely really nice dude.
