ABS Bouldering Competition

[Standamanwhocan]

How do they know which hold they're meant to be using? It doesn't seem to be color coded?

[sionskates]

i need a chalkbag to watch this

[xcryanx]

no bouldering with your chalk bag on!

[Ausy13]

@boxsterwelby It actually has already been accepted to be part of the 2020 Olympics. Now the only question is: Why wasn't this done sooner???!

[touge242]

@Ausy13 wait, really?

I heard that ice climbing was accepted into the winter olympics.

[TheRoza27]

strasznie mi się wspinać zachciało, ta fajna adrenalinką:)))))))

[FSolaHalo]

is that the Red Rock center in Las Vegas? I swear it looks just like that

[uhcooldude]

There is nothing as amazing as bouldering

[SecretTechniqueGuy]

This is great climbing, but the commentator needs to speak up and enunciate. Sorry, but commentating is a learned skill too!

[thewhiteafrican]

[UnicycleSoul]

[hienpham123]

[atdrvin25]

@brodski1 brodski...i was just thinking the same thing before I scrolled down and saw your comment...

[akzorz]

@brodski1 same... i love bouldering vids that get you goin.

[snake13884]

if this is an comp....why there are so many holds still on the wall. may confuse climber.

[xEPICxSnYpErZ]

It's just a local comp that ABS wanted to record.

[jamuraisack]

awesome vid man. just started bouldering a few months ago myself. watching this gives me a huge motivational boost. btw the song is called flesh by paul oakenfold.

[elementsofinfinity]

160 points! only!!!!!! that has to be at least v5 or 6...

[boxsterwelby]

great climbing! Why is this not an olympic sport? Incredible athletisicm, everyone in the world competes, it takes great power and low weight etc......... Let's make a push to put bouldering in the olympics.  Maybe, too much veriation in top rope but bouldering 10 moves seems like a solid competition.

[b0uld3ringfreex]

i agree. But some people don't consider this a sport even tho it does need incredible athleticism. I have friends who this its just a hobby

[xpkkingx]

I play soccer as a hobby. It doesn't mean that it's not a sport.

[Rundert94]

@boxsterwelby it is a sport at olympics

[Theoderyc]

@boxsterwelby Totally agree this is sport is not given enough support

[EvilLamas]

@boxsterwelby Bouldering is part of the X-Games, they are the olypmics of extreme sports- only cool sports are allowed there.

[PinkSands]

Great vid! What is the song?

[jrpimpdog]

haha some little kid laughed at 5:33 and the guy fell, that sucks

PS Ken Kenney is beast

[huyiy]

blue pinch that came from france? no dude, that came from edmonton LOL, its teknik

[LoLitsAndrew]

HOLY CRAP im getting there haha

[chtkostucha]

Sick movie ;)

[tristinch07]

the sickest move is at 4:30 it's the most insane thing i've ever seen bouldering

[klanaficknega]

omg...look for "anam kara" by bernd zangerl...thats like way harder than fb. 8c+. a new dimension in bouldering...thats the hardest possible not a boulder in a national comp.

[FullmetalHeart]

i wish i could do that. mad upper body strength.

[chtkostucha]

Inasne moe with slow motion..... Wish to do it sometime...

[agentwtf]

That move the guy does in slow motion is absolutely sub-human. Is he a robot?

[Poltasius]

V7's?

[Rock0nsight]

[bplzizcool]

[AttackKittyCaira]

[catsgame]

"some blue plastic pinch that came from france"...

that's a teknik, dude, and they're canadian.

[TRENDisDEAD]

thats what i was thinking....

[Murdog83]

I was just going to type this exact same message. But hey, don't blame the video's makers - anything not from America has to be French. They hate freedom over there in France.

[CASPERCLIMBER]

I was in a comp in wyoming and DANIEL WOODS WAS THERE!!!

[sxywhenwired]

great stuff!

[blackpanther2819]

Beautiful

[daltondaltonx]
