- Today, we are joined by Tension athlete and friend, Ruth Jang, head routesetter at Stone Summit Atlanta and Atlanta Bouldering. Watch as Ruth and Michael talk through how to set like a professional routesetter on the TB2.
At Tension, we've designed the Tension Board 2 on a foundation of variety which allows for creative setting and outside of the typical (as Michael puts it) "jump-snatch-jump-snatch" style of boulders many have grown to associate with board climbing. So open your mind and get creative during your next setting session on the TB2!

Great guest, excellent message, and epic climber
love what Ruth says around the 6 minute mark on
Has tension ever thought about highlighting new routes every week or two? It seems like the "Classic" designation to climbs was pretty stagnant for a while - would be cool to designate a few new climbs as "classics" each week and feature them on instagram or something - with a form to submit them for consideration.
SO TRUE! So many sets on the board are great but they're buried under even more not-so-stellar sets. I think a "classic" or maybe even a new designation for some of these climbs would be awesome. Maybe a climb can be voted in by the people or chosen by the team every week or so. Doing this might further incentivize people to step-up their setting game. Food for thought 🍣🧠. Regardless, a great video and a message we should all hear.
Hellz yes Tension Board needs voting on Classics!
Noted! We are currently working on a system around this. Stay tuned.
That's honestly a great idea. A great analog to this is map/mod-making in online games where highlighting great map/mods helps incentivize great design and creates a dynamic community around it.
Love the stone summit representation 💪🏻
Would love to hear more about the HOW to set sweet boulders vs stating don’t make them jumpy
I want to hear more from you both on setting! Can we get an episode 2 please??
always love the videos
the SKT needs more setting love on the mirror!! probably my favorite wood hold on the board, it has such a great orientation.
as a 5'6 climber I've just accepted that every hard board move is gonna be dyno cutting feet 😜😎🤪
As a taller climber I found that on the tb2 there’s a lot of small box climbs actually
Pretty dope, wish my local gyms had a tb2 :(
🔥🔥🔥
sick
yo root great job at method a couple months ago
I liked the video because you guys screamed at me. I would've like it anyway. But okay I will like it now...
Nice vid! Would have liked to see some boulders set by Ruth too tho
Two of the four boulders in the video were set by Ruth.
My mistake! I misread 😅
@@tensionclimbing I can't seem to find them on the app, though. Are they published?
Will drinking a gallon of beet juice daily like Root give me the same setting superpowers??
