It's always a good laugh watching climbers try and pretend to be overly competitive The moment someone's on the wall instinct kicks in and you start yelling encouragement 😅
Orin said there are two things that are going to happen today .... then proceeded to name three things. An opportunity briefly lost to point this out. But then remembering Louis's counting/miss-counting ability 😀
Video idea for Catalyst - give Louis a fake mustache and a purple hat with an P on it and call him Pouie Larkinson. Make him coach amateur climbers in the exact opposite style of Louie. He tries to encourage a pessimistic mindset, implies that everyone is failing boulders because they're not strong enough, brags about his own skills constantly. As people are climbing he shouts discouraging remarks and sprays really bad beta. I think it would be hilarious lol.
@@deanraney1049Not that bad of an idea for pranking someone that they know but if it was stranger then it’s really not that funny to just straight up wasting their time.
Woohoo! I am a blurry shape in the background my first time seeing Louis in person, and at my local! Big shout out to Big Rock climbing Milton Keynes! Louis, you are legend and I've learned so much from catalyst vids so many thanks, and to keep things even Orrin's top of boulder 2 was EPIC!
Orin and Louis are so fun to watch, their dynamic in this video was hilarious ❤ Great job to both of you, who are way better and stronger and handsomer climbers than I’ll ever be lol
I was wondering if you could make a video on why a lot of professional climbers "retire" so young or is it just comps are grueling ways to make money and after a while if you have another option you'll likely take it?
The trash talk is absolutely hilarious in this one - dare I say the Orrin-Louis rivalry is the biggest thing in UK bouldering since Ben Moon discovering the sport for training
Brilliant to watch this and saw myself as a blurry shape right at the end of the vid! Great to see you both down there and get a photo with BOTH of you!! 😂
I guess this proofs again that the ability to read boulders well and find the correct body positions fast is what makes a good comp climber. I'd really like to see Louis climb these problems again, but finish them
I was waiting when Louis in the end will say "Louis, your the best" as they were discussing exactly that before finals, but oh :D he forgot the formulation ;D
Ok so I'm fairly new to climbing/bouldering, but what is 'clotheslining' by the routesetters? is it like setting boulder too hard so no one can top (send?) them?
Louis might have been joking there. Also competion grading is different, cause you can have a V5 slab that none of them will climb until they learn the correct beta, at which point it feels like V3. They often try to make the boulders puzzles that you have to solve, and if you don't solve it correctly it will feel much much harder.
Kind of a shame they didn't get a better route setter, because I think everyone was aware that he kinda messed up in this comp, including himself. There's a reason he ran over to give a hug after the first top, because if no one had gotten it things would become even more embarrassing for him. The problems looked fun, but just way too hard.
Outside of the first one, the other two seemed of a good hardness, Louis got to the zone of the second boulder (and was close to topping it) and Orin almost did, and vice versa concerning the top for the third. I don't think it's fair to say they should've gotten a better route setter, this is basically what happens at the Olympic level as well, some top, some only get the zone, and rarely some don't get the zone...

wtf are you doing here lmao. how many more interests do i have in common with you??? get back playing rimworld :P
And they remember they had to pretend to be mean and spiteful, so they add and "actually that was shit" after. lol
Damn, you a climbing enthusiast
That parking lot fight 😂😂😂

The gay energy was resonating

Top of boulder 2? Do you mean boulder 3?
@@colemantrebor6574 I may do, 2 was the slab wasn't it? althrough louis was very impressive on the start of that with the stand up
@@yogimojo4685 2 was the slab that Orrin didn't top.
I have an essay due tomorrow but I’ve got to se this 🤣

Orange’s accent just makes the banter so much funnier 🎉🎉
"The mark of a very weak climber there... Tactics" really got me. Love the banter in this one. Was laughing all the way through the video
The manly giggles during the fight did it for me!
Congrats on 100k, keep up the good work

Loved this! Well done Louise and Aaron!
That was great!
This Aaron guy sure can climb as well as he is handsome.
It's not Aaron, it's Orwell!
Owen?
I quit 😂
Auryn?
Pretty sure it's Floryn.
big rock! Was great to watch
Smiled through the whole video, nice one lads
Brilliant to watch this and saw myself as a blurry shape right at the end of the vid! Great to see you both down there and get a photo with BOTH of you!! 😂
Congrats on 100k guys!
I've said this before, your videos are so much fun. It's crazy to me you don't have more subs. Thanks so much. Also, interesting sponsor.
Best video of the last months by far imo 😂 Please let us see more of this feud!
Don’t know if Sam is the only editor, but he’s getting a lot better!! Love Sam!! I’d love to see more videos with him climbing too!!
Really fun to watch. I'd be happy to see more of this.
Awesome video! Its always great to see Orrin pop up in random videos from the British Climbing youtubers!
Super fun to watch. Love the smack talk and fighting in the parking lot!
That was huge fun to watch. One of your best! You're both incredible and hilarious.
the smack talk is so good I've never seen louis have such good acting skills
This is by far the best video you guys have ever made! Laughed non-stop! :)
Finally some love for big rock!
Finally a video today that I get to smile all the way through :) Well done guys, strong climbing and creative!
Huge congrats on 100k!
"Yeah, I think we just tied for second place... Should we just have a fight in the car park?" ROFL.
One of the best/funniest climbing related video's I've ever watched
It was fun to hear the breakdowns on each boulder in the finals.
I guess this proofs again that the ability to read boulders well and find the correct body positions fast is what makes a good comp climber.
I'd really like to see Louis climb these problems again, but finish them
Alan and you both climbed really well .. the fight was brilliant haha and the fact you both had no shoes on lol. genius lol
Before I watch the video, my money is on the team kids.
Of course I want the home team to win but Orrin immediately won me over with the heckling
I was waiting when Louis in the end will say "Louis, your the best" as they were discussing exactly that before finals, but oh :D he forgot the formulation ;D
This was my first comp!😁 Met you at the top of the top out 😂 the comp was soooo fun! 😁
how isn't this video viral?? it's so good what 😭
This was so fun!
My local gym!
i let out a ”holy shit, he’s at bond” lol
I've been waiting for this vid since I saw them there!!
Great episode, would definitely watch more content like this.
Congratulations on 100K!
Well done Aaron and Squiggy!
So amazing! Def need more comps with lauren 🤘
CONGRATS ON 100k
Very cool boulders!
Well done Aaron
I really enjoy your videos in general! This one... ahahah 😂 was surely one the best! I had a really good time watching it!
This was amazing
Ok so I'm fairly new to climbing/bouldering, but what is 'clotheslining' by the routesetters? is it like setting boulder too hard so no one can top (send?) them?
I really loved this! Would have like to see the beta on the blue one as well
10:55 you say you think that blue is v13, is was labelled at v8 after the comp!! Just shows how bad the grading is a Big Rock...
ye i was trying to remember what it was graded absolutely mental i think if i ever go to a different gym i might be a v10 climber lol scraping v6 rn
Louis might have been joking there. Also competion grading is different, cause you can have a V5 slab that none of them will climb until they learn the correct beta, at which point it feels like V3. They often try to make the boulders puzzles that you have to solve, and if you don't solve it correctly it will feel much much harder.
Great fun!
"i dont even warm up on v5s" was so demoralizing 😭
im a minute in and this is already gold
This was great :)
This is great content 👍
you guys are awesome
The fight in the parking lot made me laugh at loud I was not expecting that
Enjoyed the shit talking. And making fun. Thats what I miss in a lot of climbing vids!
Great video
WHO MADE THIS BEAT ??
Did you like the setting in general there for the regular boulders, it's one of my locals I'm a member of but rarely boulder
8:19 just look at that tongue boulder 😅
I say Orrin wins for everything
The fight in the parking lot 😂
Loved this video! Please bring Florian back!
"Go on Florin" probably the most lul for me.
Aaron, oops, I mean Orrin is a really dynamic faller. He falls with the grace of a roly poly. I wish I looked that good falling.
2:46
2 things are going to happen
holds up three fingers
More colabs with you two please🙏
Orrin is the GOAT!!!
loved it
Delightful.
Mm, fresh content
I'm impressed by Orin hairline though 😄
watching thes guys climb super hard routes easily makes me cry in v5
really entertaining
Yeeeeeaaaaaah my local gym, I spot an Alex and an Alison and a Chris and all the crushers :D

Nah, these were marked as V2 after the comp....

Blorin? Florin? That got me xD
Poor route setter. Y'all not strong enough 😂😂😂
Aww I was at this! I got 0 points lol 😂 better luck next time
