  • Alex and Chris are testing a new boulder this time, which Alex had to face during the (CWIF) finals in Sheffield. A handstand boulder that has it all. Maybe a good idea for upcoming worldcups or too far away from bouldering?
    Write in the comments what you think how you liked it and feel free to suggest ideas for furture Movement Lab Series. As always, please refrain from making stupid comments and just watch other videos, if you don't like ours. Our suggestions: Stefano and Adam have good ones too ;-)

    seeing the entire genesis of a problem from idea through setting and climbing was fascinating just like the rest of this channel. this is one of the best climbing channels on yt.

    was fun to watch! very interesting to see the progress how the boulder was created 🧠

    Great concept, really interesting as a setter to see what makes a specific move possible/how to force it. I'd have liked to see how to continue it nicely.
    For a next one maybe a 180 on one foot

    A forced bathang in the middle of the boulder would be great to see

    Super idée ce Movement Lab !
    Pourriez-vous faire des tutos pour ouvrir des mouvements classiques à apprendre lorsqu’on début l’escalade ? Ou montrer des principes permettant d’induire ou de forcer certains mouvements ?
    Aussi j’adore ces chaussures noires et roses ! Quel est le nom du modèle ??😅
    Bonne continuation

    I mean, whenever a new type of move hits the competitive stage, the competitors who've done it before have an advantage. It was the same with crack climbing and Adam doing it in Meiringen and showing the Japanese crew the technique. Not exactly a level playing field I suppose but I do really appreciate innovation in the bouldering scene, with regards to new moves. Also keeps competitors on their toes to learn moves they see go viral on instagram coz some route setter may decide to throw it into a comp

    Huh. Very interesting to see someone work through a problem of how to try to cause a specific maneuver to be the easiest way to do a boulder.

    I would be interested on watching build a oldschool style slab boulder, slightly overhanging and with the smallest crimps and footholds as possible. Just because i am working on a limestone boulder right now and it feels still impossible because the crimps are so sharp and tiny and the footholds so small and slippery...I never saw stuff like that in plastic. So, what are the smallest crimps you have in plastic 🥸 ?

    "Very physical. If you've done it once or twice you will have a huge advantage over someone who hasn't done it before. It's very dimension dependent."
    Sounds like crack climbing.

    Awesome move! What would you grade this if it ended with a match on the yellow?

    • @alexandermegos8129
      @alexandermegos8129  Месяц назад +9

      Very hard to grade! It's probably only 7C or even easier, but I reckon most climbers who can climb much harder will not flash it or do it in 5 minutes

    great content and exploring thank you guys :) but the handstand doesnt look forced at all from the strarting position, you can always spring dynamically from the starting hold and make use of the good holds on the right bottom volume with your feet and catch the highest handhold with your thumbs right? I just can't see how this start should force you to handstand... but maybe it's just that i'm on my computer and not in front of the boulder haha! please let me know what you think of the forcing movement issue on boulders :)

  • @Fred-oz3tw
    @Fred-oz3tw Месяц назад +1

    its kind of a one arme planche in the beginning of the move. thats why chris said its harder than a one arm handstand :D

    • @Fred-oz3tw
      @Fred-oz3tw Месяц назад +1

      so thats not parcour in bouldering. its calisthenics in bouldering.

    since you dont like it: coordination dyno where its not physically hard, but you need to transition between 4-5 different bodypositions fluidly and in one go ;)

    Ich würd mich ankacken, müsste ich auf einem Volumen einen Handstand machen. Aufgrund dessen bitte ich euch um ein Video zum Handstand.
