    A lot of people are commenting about how great of a wall it is you built, but nobody has mentioned the amazing videography and editing you've done as well. Bravo my dude. Keep up the good work!

    I also have a climbing wall at home. Height 5.5 m, 74 m2 of panel. I built it 6 years ago. My advice to all those who build something for home climbing - REMEMBER TO WARM UP before climbing. Since it's easy to just get out of your chair and start climbing, it's just as easy to get injured without warming up. You have been warned :)

      In my country we have a building code that prevents me from building above 3 meters (10 ft) in your back yard so I had to build inside but what I have now would never fit or be legal outside

    The next best gift you can give yourself is asking a setter from your gym their rate to come put up a few boulders. They can set with whatever style/grade you're looking for in mind. Amazing wall dude

    Are you still climbing? I would love an update and to see how the outdoor wall is holding up long term and if there are things you would have done differently?

    This is the best wall build on the internet and I watch wall builds all the time and none of them even come close to this one and that orange bloc is great you got great determination and I love the side pull with the left into reverse side pull with the right and then reverse side pull with the left to stop the barn door, great solve.

  • @chrisembryclimbing
    @chrisembryclimbing 2 года назад +4

    I agree with Aaron. Terrific camera work, audio mixing and all. Love the wall itself as well how it has character and angles like in a gym. Fantastic work Martin, keep it up. You are truly an inspiration to us all.

    Nice build, can barely even call it homemade anymore with the level of thought and craftmanship that went into this, your parents must be incredibly proud seeing you out day in day out building this masterpiece from scratch. Very impressive
    I hope you have some kinda protective gear in place, to shield all that from rougher weather conditions, would be a shame if it wouldn't last you for years to come

    You should Replace your Concrete screws with Epoxy anchors. Also, consider starting your climes from sitting on the ground. its like adding 3' of height to the wall.

    • @MartinJEngland
      @MartinJEngland  3 года назад +4

      Thanks! Sadly, if I made the wall even a few cm taller, I would've technically needed planning permission for it since it's next to a low fence. My neighbours probably wouldn't have minded, but I thought it best to make sure there was no risk of me having to take it down.

  • @georgepilkington9350
    @georgepilkington9350 3 года назад

    this build is amazing, climbing technique still has a way to go but this wall will help you learn and improve. a simple tip is always have a solid base with your feet and don’t cross your arms unless necessary, in this orange route you could have skipped a good amount of the holds and it wouldn’t be any harder. but props, keep it going

    • @MartinJEngland
      @MartinJEngland  3 года назад +1

      Thanks so much! Yeah, I definitely have a long way to go with my climbing ability. Although since a lot of the routes involve traverses, I feel like crossing your arms is sort of necessary. Otherwise I just end up matching on small holds a lot which isn't as fun and doesn't seem to "flow" as well? I'm sure there are other options though!

    • @georgepilkington9350
      @georgepilkington9350 3 года назад

      @@MartinJEngland sometimes "bumping" can help with flow, to avoid crossing or matching. This is when you move the same hand twice, so on yours when you are on the corner trying to cross you could bump the left hand again to the pinch then bring your right hand in.
      It's just playing around, you'll find what feels good and easy, if it feels good then it will be efficient and that's the key to climbing. Also put more force through feet rather than hands even on overhangs and especially on the corner you start in, this helps relieve force off hands as legs are stronger.
      Have fun man, enjoying is the most important thing
