Big movies happening! I also have a little hidden treat in the end of the video ;) Much love to Rungne as always! Use code ‘EKB’ for 15% off storewide from Rúngne! ▶︎rungne.info/EKBI
I was halfway through a new video from another RUclipsr. Saw your notification and it was an automatic switch! Great way to spend lunch. Thank you for your videos!!
There was another difference when you did only the ending of the V11, which is that your right hand was on the top left most hold of the C formation rather than the top middle one, which meant that the span from there to the second-to-last hold with your left hand wasn’t as big, and therefore the jump to the last hold wasn’t as tense.
Your videos always get me truly so psyched to climb and constantly reinterpret what the true meaning of joy is! You have a lot of love coming your way from México, hope one day y'all come down here. 🇲🇽
4:15ish-4:40 shows how intelligent Nikken is, especially in his second language. The way he expresses the nuances of pinches was super helpful. That was a keen insight and is much appreciated!
Glad to see Nikken back at it. Injuries are soooo immensely frustrating and hit your motivation and mood mega hard so happy he's doing his thing again!
It's so nice to see Nikken back in action, I am still psyched that I met him in Berlin this summer, ripping of some nice problems at Berta Block. Keep going strong Nikken and you too Eric!
Interesting that at 6:42 Nikken has his right hand on the diagonal hold, but all the other attempts he has it on the downward facing hold. I wonder if a bump to that hold would've made the second last hold better for the other attempts.
@@Lucroz94 The entire crew is trying them out atm, will know more about how they work after 1 month of use, but so far very impressed with the build quality, and it’s one of the most comfortable shoe we have ever tried. Hopefully I can give them a real recommendation after we have put them through the ringer :)
I have an honest question to help understand the grading. What makes an "impossible" or "super hard" 6C+ still a 6C+ and not a 7A? Is it that the holds pretty much set the grade or the required strength or the move sequence or what?

I loved hearing your microbeta of when your engaging your thumb on those pinches. The details are the best part of climbing
Hello Mickey, is Nikken a professional climber?

This is what i love to hear ;D
16:02 Calling a Pain au chocolat a "Wienerbröd" is wild 😅 Great video Erik, hyped for the upcoming films!

I saw this as well. I think it made more of a difference than the feet did
What an epic session from Nikken. That boy's something else. Can't wait for the new projects coming out Eric!

The lighting and color from the sneak peek outdoor video is actually insane. Super psyched to watch!

If I remember correctly Nikken actually grew up in America, which makes Swedish his second language.
Still a smart guy though!
Happy for your Eric, that you got the support you’re deserve. Now you can create many little masterpieces. Super hyped 🎉
I opened RUclips looking for something to watch and thinking "man i would really enjoy a new ekb now"
Couldn't be more satisfied!
Glad to see Nikken back at it. Injuries are soooo immensely frustrating and hit your motivation and mood mega hard so happy he's doing his thing again!
great tip on how to approach pinches. thanks nikken!
So hyped to have you come visit us in Estonia, Nikken!
Damn, I'd never ever stop on this kilter project after such progress. Nikken did all the moves and was imho able to link them this session

Keep going strong Nikken and you too Eric!
1:38 giving Emil and Brandon vibes.
Haha true
Bought the Rugne Highballer pants ! Big shoutout for everything you do Eric much love from Canada my man.
Really appreciate that ❤️

I love watching Nikken climb and listening to his analysis!
I asked myself the exact question about if he intentionally did not engage the pinch immediately on the mint v9 so yes the explanation did help !
Obviously Nikken is super strong, but his understanding and control of his body is really beautiful to watch
ah i hear some maxime :) music choices always on point!
Love to see so ill getting more and more attention
Thanks Magnus for helping the Boulder Vid OG make his visions become reality... Quid pro quo! :*
Anyone recognise the shoes Nikken's wearing? The all black look is dope!
@@christianv-b.nielsen1505 so ill torque 👍
soill torque
Always good to see the Spicy Meatball in action!
Nikken: „now I need something harder“
The voice in my head: „that‘s what she said…“
Banger video!
Pink problem legit looks as amazing as you it make it look climbing it.
Time to make the hardest projects on the spraywall! No routescrewers
ahhh I want the outdoor videos so bad :)
Hi Eric, as a starting creator I want to ask you for an advice, how do you choose music for your videos?)
It's been a long time since we could play the game "is it a thrist trap or a Nikken thumbnail?"
Can’t let go of classics ;)
what song was used at 11:00? it's really good!
twenty20 - Maxime. 😁
15:00 Thats some insane back dude, what the fuck.
Boy is jacked for sure
I NEED to know what song is playing when nikken sends the second boulder
I have a nasty habit of lay backing all pinches
hey! great vids - thanks!
what are the shoes Nikken wearing?
So ill torque 👍
@@EricKarlsson mega thants for reply! :)
@@EricKarlsson What are his thoughts on them ? We don't see much people wearing So ill :)

Nice Video
I'm really curious why Nikken decided to stop on the project, was it because he felt like there was a risk of injury if he were to push it?
@@SauceVinaigrette yeah, to make sure the fingers don’t get injured again
Nikken. Looks. Great.
Can a flash count if he set the boulder himself?
No don’t think so, I think he meant day flash :)
WHERE IS THE NIKKEN BAG RUGNE?
nice hair tho
what shoes is nikken got on
So ill torque, we are tying them out atm, very impressed so far
Looks like the new so ill torque
@@EricKarlsson great thank you
@@ThomasTaylor-z2d thank you
Hi :)
First in Aus
I think you are first in the world also ;D
Does rúgne deliver with other companies than fedex? Because fedex is horrible.
Not sure actually, I’ll look it up and come back to you :)
