I've recently become obsessed with rock climbing. I'm definitely not the best, and don't plan to become the best, but it is such an individualistic sport and it's unlike any other sport. It's physically and mentally challenging and always makes you want to progress. Even though I am just beginning, I already feel welcome to this family of people that do this; everyone is so happy and motivating and never negative to each other, it seems like a family and I'm happy to be a part of it now hahaha.
great video too bad I wasted so much of my training life on bodybuilding now I must make changes so all this extra meat does not weigh me down anymore..... ever see a 220lb bodybuilder climb a rock wall HILARIOUS!
damn everyone seems to have been climbing for 10 years + i have only been climbing 3 weeks i have such a long way to go before i have good hand strenght. i do love climbing, my goal is to do some deep water freesolos.
Does anyone know where I can purchase the song starting at around 5:12 ? I know its Malachai-Sweet Flower. But I havent found it yet, except on myspace... Anyone know a compilation or album containing this song?
I climb at Western Carolina University and every time someone ask me what I do I could never find a video that properly expressed it. Well, The Insiders has given me that and given me inspiration to perfect my skills. Rock climbing is definitely an underestimated sport. I am glad to say I am a climber.
I like the La Sportiva Mythos line myself -- most comfortable I've worn, although a moderate rather than aggressive toe. A little pricey (around $120) but worth it.
That route with all the round slopers at the start and with that sick toe hook incredible btw anyone else think Paul Robinson looks like Michael Jackson still a great climber
I'm not a bad climber.. but THIS is wow! Well, I don't want to climb because of a cup or something like that. I want to climb because of my heart. If you really wanna climb, climb with your heart! Doesn't match if you're better or worse than someone else. The nature is the rival but you have to climb with your rival, to feel with him. You can't beat the nature. That's because I'm a climber and I'm only 16
I don't agree with indoor climbing walls. Yeah ok, they are good for introducing people too climbing and the techniques in a safe enviroment but people forget about the origins of real climbing and just stick with the indoor scene. Put half the people in this video on a major outdoor route and they're bottle would crash !
@pikeflyfisherman These people use the gym to train. Most of the time they're outdoors, even little Ashima who I saw stick a V12 in Reel Rock 2011. For everyone else, if they love climbing, they will eventually gravitate towards real rocks. Most people don't have access to outdoor climbing, so the climbing gym is the perfect resource to introduce someone, anyone, to the sport. I can respect the origins of climbing, but you have to respect the evolution as well.
@SnipedaWhoOp Cannot argue with your reply, so I won't. I just think people are brought up in too protective an enviroment now a days. All the best climbers back in the 70's and 80's learned on real rock and those guys were just insane. Dave Macleod, for instance, if you have heard of him, a modern rock, ice and mixed climber learned too climb on Dumbarton Rock which is outdoors. But yeah I can see your point about the natural progression. And yeah, litle Ashima is hitting it up big time atm.
im tired of people criticizing indoor climbing and training indoors, the type of people climbing attracts tend to be mindful and open to all perspectives and walks of life. climbing is evolving into a more maintstream, more athletic sport. i see so much critique among those who disagree and that is extremely judgmental and close-minded...if you like outdoor climbing, spend it outdoors, if you like indoor climbing and training, then climb indoors! no judgment, do what makes you happy.
@jgraddon Do what makes you happy yeah. But dont forget about the traditions of your sport and where it came from. Infact, climbing isn't a sport. Its a passion and a way of life. Im sorry, but its just my opinion on the matter. I respect your view that you enjoy doing it, but for me alot of the best training comes from a board in your house and then hitting the boulders whenever possible.
@pikeflyfisherman i agree with what you said but would say climbing is all three of those things, and i will take passion over a sport anyday! climbing has very many dynamics and thats why it is so great!
I was climbing today for the first time in my life. My forearms are still burning, and I'm definitely going back next week. And the week after, and the week after! Loved it even tho I'm really scared of hights :)
@ElksuGuitar When I first went climbing, my fingers were dead. I want to climb, but I dont know anyone who climbs, so I just have to solo Class IV routes.
wow 5:42 was awesome! I had a go at climbing a couple weeks ago, was so fun i spent 5 hours practising after my lesson and my lats were sore for days :D
amazing sport...I`ve never actually went to a special gym...but since I was a little kid I`ve been climbing trees and all sort of buildings or walls and honestly I`m pretty darn good at it - in the near future I think it would be an interesting experience to go for a little bit of bouldering in a gym
@sharkcatalin1994 i was climbing trees too as a kid, now i am 30 and climbing indoors for 6 months. Trees and buildings practice (even if long ago) definitely comes in handy, definitely helped me to progress faster than the other beginners in the class.
@nancykilledjon bus? subway? taxi? are those things work of my imagination or do they actually exist, and serve the purpose of taking people places, when a car is not available? you're not the independent kind, eh?
