      Really like this format of Nikken setting routes and the rest of the crew trying them, keep on doing this great job. I also like the duration of around 30 min., especially if it includes the details of the route-setting and optimization. Thank you all 😊
      BTW: Eric, it would be nice to also see you more often, trying some of the boulders maybe.

    @Tristslayer Před 2 lety +90

    You've consistently got the best indoor climbing filmmaking in the business. The ratio choice, colour balance, shot positioning, keeping the climber in-frame and the goal of the route obvious. Mind-blowing. Add to that audio remixing good enough I can listen to this without headphones and not get distracted by the busy gym. Mate. Fucking artist.

    One of the best climbing videos I have enjoyed watching for a while. Your creativity and quality of filmmaking just get better and better. It was a joy to watch Nikken create his masterpiece and to see the crew of crushers crush and get crushed. Robin and Nikken - the former makes everything seem super easy but it's not, it's because he is so good and strong too and the latter is super strong. Inspiring stuff. Keep up the great work!

    *In climbing --
    because watching you guys climb is fucking amazing! You all crush so hard, it's just so cool to know the human body can even do that. 😆
    I'm 40 years old now, hence the name 40-year-old climber😏 actually 41 on the 29th.... My point is my body probably isn't going to do a lot of what you all can do, but I can damn sure try and I bet some of it will work🤘😜😅
    * For editing and camera work--
    Because you're a freaking badass with the camera. I have a ton of trouble figuring out which shots to get for slow motion or just b-roll. You do that so well and it's such an inspiration for someone like me who is trying to get their channel up and going. So thank you guys! All of you, for the inspiration!🙌 I always get so happy to see a notification. From Eric karlson bouldering! Anyways, yeah! Keep fucking crushing it guys! I freaking love it! 🤘
