    would you be allowed to film the test climbing and upload it afterwards?

    • @TheConorFinegan
      @TheConorFinegan 7 лет назад +2

      I would say so, I mean the Legends Only comp is a different format to others. Competitors will come in work the boulders for a couple of days and then compete on the same boulders. It's pretty cool, they can share beta with each other, discuss the problems, etc. It means the boulders are much harder then those in the World Cups but it makes for some interesting climbing. It also give an advantage to climbers who are super strong but may not perform well in a tradition world cup style, example: Alex Megos, Jimmy Webb.

      you could just watch the video, he answers this question ...

    • @soulseek2
      @soulseek2 7 лет назад +3

      well aren't you a genius.. guess why i worded my question the way i did. in the video he said that he can't film it because they want it to be a show/secret which is completely understandable and makes the event more interesting. but if erik would film the testing and upload it after the event concluded there shouldn't be a problem.. which is exactly what i was asking in the first place

    • @Talarimm
      @Talarimm 7 лет назад +1

      he was doing that last year, guess he would have mentioned if it would be possible to do so

    nice vid! I always wondered how they know that the difficulty is just right? Must be a fine line, especially for la Sportiva Legends only.

  • @willrnaylor

    Hey Eric or anyone, is the Klättercentret that the EKB team mostly climbs in (which I assume is the same as where the Legends only was) Klättercentret Solna? I'll be in Stockholm in a couple of weeks, and it seems there are a few Klättercentret to choose from.
    And, thanks for the content Eric.

    Alex Megos uploaded a picture of him climbing on the Black Diamond Project on Instagram. Do you have footage of that? Would love to see him on this route!

    • @EricKarlsson

  • @MrXsim1

    How does the difficulty of these problems compares with the World Cup problems? Are these harder because the athletes have some time to practice them?

    What if the competitors see the beta from your videos before the comp? ;)

    • @MANIRES
      @MANIRES 7 лет назад

      this is a special comp where atheletes are even allowed to test the boulders beforehand. so watching them setting shouldn't be a big problem

    I don't know much about routesetting, but why all male setters when the actual comp will only have women?

  • @guillaumeprovost2813
    @guillaumeprovost2813 7 лет назад +3

    I was just thinking, if the routesetters are able, or at least almost able, to climb the problems, how would it be hard enough for some of the best climbers in the world?

    • @t666y
      @t666y 7 лет назад +5

      Guillaume Provost not all strong guys are well known sponsored athletes. i️ think everyone can think of a local crusher who maybe wouldn’t be a real competitor here but could climb all the problems in the video if they had enough time. like they said the problems are ~7c+ - 8a+, which is gonna be relatively hard for anyone

    • @NicolasJulioFlores
      @NicolasJulioFlores 7 лет назад +3

      Yeah remember that the competitors don't have the benefit of being able to take huge rests and knowing the intended beta

      Route setters are always strong as hell! They just fly under the radar as they are behind the scenes

    • @elephantintheroom7636
      @elephantintheroom7636 7 лет назад +2

      afaik those guys have all repointed boulders up to around 8B or harder outdoors.

  • @MrTobitobitobitobi
    @MrTobitobitobitobi 7 лет назад +4

    Isn't it a ladies competition again? I wish there would be some female routesetters too since they should have an even better understanding what can be done.
