    I really liked the "what makes Nathaniel Coleman so good?" video, I think a "what makes Adam Ondra so good?" and a "what makes tomoa narasaki so good?" would be great. I'd also love an outdoor beta break video based on Drew Rauna, particular his ascent of "creature from the black lagoon" where he managed to skip an infamous kneebar - that would be dope too. Love your videos man!

  • @DeadlyFeet413
    @DeadlyFeet413 Před 3 lety +1

    Love this video! As a tall climber (6'3"), some will attribute my successes to my height/wingspan. In reality, having a taller/longer body composition forces longer people to climb in unique ways
    to the styles of traditionally sized climbers, and very often can have limitations. I find myself having to get very creative with my footwork and body position/tension (particularly when the terrain gets very overhanging) and trying to find new beta when faced with a sequence that's too scrunched for my body to fit in. Thanks for not saying, "he's just really tall!"

    • @Joie-du-sang
      @Joie-du-sang Před 3 lety +1

      Yeah, I'm 6'7" and it has its ups and downs. Often I can skip holds, which is great, but I can get really stuck trying to deal with a tight space. Sometimes I just literally can't move out of a position to the next hold if I follow the intended beta.

      @TornadoGod1 Před 3 lety +4

      it's a pretty easy answer, climbing competitions used to be extremely small in viewership due to their limited audience reach. You have to be a climber in order to understand the difficulty of old school climbs. They realized they needed to adapt to something more visually impressive that would be able to make competitions more interesting, so adopted a mix of old school climbing and parkour style movements.

    • @pajaroprofeta
      @pajaroprofeta Před 3 lety

      @@TornadoGod1 I think it also has to do with the fact that dynos and parkour-ish moves are almost the only ones that a climber can "learn" to do in 4 minutes. Pure strength moves are more often "do or don't", and in some cases you would only see everyone flashing the boulder or failling attempt after attempt, wich is kinda boring even to a climber audience.

    Hey just noticed that you say that Tomoa Narasaki is 5,7 ft or 1,77m , that's a small error 5,7 is more like 1,73m, but then you say that is brother should be around 6 ft or 2m, and that is a pretty big problem since 6ft is approximately 1,83m, meaning there is almost a half foot of discrepency, 2m meters being approximately 6,7ft.
