Beating Adam Ondra and the reigning Olympic champion Gines Lopez to win an IFSC event and qualify for the Olympics - as an 18 year old. Absolutely incredible!
Can’t help but smile through the whole video. We (anyone that knows climbing in the UK) are unbelievably proud of you. Keep up the epic work and so impressed with your mental game.
Wow that story about the setters giving you that hold you qualified on is one for the history books, and it's such a sweet gesture as well to write messages inside it! Love that ❤ And massive congrats, can't wait to see the British climber smash it in Paris next year 😁
Tbh it made me a bit teary. You come back so much stronger after every set back and you absolutely owned the semi and final. I absolutely loved the static movement on final M4, that was something. And as much as I was cheering for you, I wouldn't mind if Alberto won that. His coach was absolute legend congratulating you between firsts I think. Good luck to the future!
Congrats man!! As a fellow brit climber - what you're doing is so inspirational and going to do some much for our community in the UK. We all firmly behind you for the olympics!
Absolutely delighted for you Toby. It's been a privilege following your journey this season on RUclips and seeing how you develop and learn from each competition. Whatever you did in Laval, remember it for the Olympics! If you can get in the same headspace you have every chance of a massive result. SO exciting to have a British climber providing such massive results. You've genuinely provided some all-time great moments in climbing comps this season. My 2 year old son learnt to shout "go Toby" as you were on the lead wall 😂.
So lovely to see your emotions and how composed and strong you were during this competition. I had the pleasure of watching you compete in Koper and I am so glad to see you qualify for Paris. And your dad screaming his lungs out at the end is priceless. Well done!
I knew it! I believe in you since the beggining. I cry again!! I am so happy and proud of you. Thanks to you and your dad for the amazing videos. I seeend you a big hug from México. I aaaaaam really happy for you. Bern was so heartbreaking but i knew that you are going to be an olimpian sooner or later. Have a nice rest. You really desserved
man, watching you top the lead route that brought you your olympic ticket brought tears to my eyes!! And then to perform as you did in the Olympics.. incredible!!!!!! Much love from Canada!
I’ve never seen anyone read a gym route so well in line with his own physical capacities. Astonishing. Really looking forward to seeing him develop his skills on the rock.
I was there watching at Laval, one of the few brits in the crowd. We were screaming for you! I dont know how you managed to not let the pressure get to you. We were nervous just watching!! The moves on the lead route where you had to cut loose with the feet (around the 21:14 mark) had us all palms sweating, but then watching you top out at the end was magical. Congratualtions! See you in Paris in 2024!!
Huge congratulations to you and all those who support you directly. I watched the Laval champs live and with bated breath and the result was the best I could have hoped for.
Definitely one of, if not, the best moment in competition climbing ever! You’re a huge inspiration for the young generation of climbers (which includes me). Congrats man!👊
Absolutely loved watching the finals, rooting for you and seeing you brining it home on the lead wall was such a surreal experience. Great job. All the hard work payed off!
Wonderful to watch this after the Olympics and what you did there. Truly amazing, congratulations and that 10 months of work on top of what all you had already completed certainly paid off.
Well done Toby, your a humble young man and your parents will be super proud of you and not just because you qualified but for the man you have become. Good luck 👊
I'm so bloody hyped for you mate! Been following your progress through the junior climbing scene and into seniors, and you're such a great climber and guy. So hyped that you'll be representing Britain. Love from Ireland!
So so happy for you!!! It's going to be exciting to follow and support you along the way!!! Congratulations and keep having fun (and climbing hard!!l ;)
Come back to this video every so often to relive the journey with you, you're going to smash it at the Olympics, we'll all be cheering you on! Always remember, dreams really do come true!
It's a joy to follow your journey here on RUclips. Besides delivering top-notch climbing your work on the production behind each video is fantastic. You're great at talking to the camera and describing your feelings. That's the real enjoyment of following you here on RUclips. You're also a great role model with your personality, which is incredibly fun to see. Keep up the great work!
Just got around to watching this. Great stuff Toby, you’re such a grounded and positive person, it’s so inspiring to see this. I’ll definitely be rooting for you in Paris. Good luck!!
Such a nice video, really cool that you've got your Olympic qualifying hold! Loved watching the competition, but watching lead is the most stressful thing xD
So so pleased for you Toby. It was phenomenal watching you competing in Leval and what a finish to the comp to blow everyone away on the lead wall like that. So glad you showed your dad's footage and screaming as you approached the headwall and topped out. Can't wait to see you next season. Train hard and give it your all 💪💪💪💪💪💪
Great vide, and amazing performance out there, it's crazy what a good mindset can do for you, definitely keed that up at the Olympics! I will be rooting for you!
Amazing story and sequence of events. I can't wait to see you in Paris. A bit of advice from someone whos gotten some of that media attention before, just take it with a grain of salt! Your family and friends are your biggest supporters and the only people who matter!
Way to bounce back and make working on the weaknesses fun! I was so psyched to watch you at this comp! Any outdoor plans for the offseason or is it back to training after a holiday?
Excited for you Toby and great film, well done! On day 1 do you get to know your standing after the boulder round before the lead? Nice to hear that you can actually recognise the improvements that you have made in technique. Maybe that means they are significant leaps forward rather than the usual and unnoticeable tiny improvements of elite athletes? Wow, that final climb was simply amazing :-) Bravo!
Haha that celebration dinner looked awesome. An English bloke in France having an American sized burger w a pint. Kinda surprised they serve Bud in France...
Your attitude is perhaps more impressive than your abilities… it’s probably the edge that got you the gong… and the ticket to Paris. First or last just savour the moment… you’re an Olympian forever! 🇬🇧🇫🇷🏅
'Get off the wall!')))) No, Mr Tristan Roberts, it's too late, your kid is way too high up now))) Huge congrats to you, your family and team coaches. Yet again I woke my cat up with a loud 'yeeeaaah' when you topped the final route. He has to get used to it I guess)
9 months later and you're an Olympic gold medalist! Absolutely incredible.

Same! Damn this kid is good
@@SandbagBouldering chill bro
Thank you so much 😆
Couldn’t take the smile of my face for a second
I’m so proud of you I hope to do this sort of thing in 4 years
Wow that story about the setters giving you that hold you qualified on is one for the history books, and it's such a sweet gesture as well to write messages inside it! Love that ❤ And massive congrats, can't wait to see the British climber smash it in Paris next year 😁
Thank you!! Yes it was so kind of them. See you in Paris 😎
Next video: How I became an Olympic Gold Medalist! Congratulations Toby! You were fantastic! Very well deserved!
Tbh it made me a bit teary. You come back so much stronger after every set back and you absolutely owned the semi and final. I absolutely loved the static movement on final M4, that was something. And as much as I was cheering for you, I wouldn't mind if Alberto won that. His coach was absolute legend congratulating you between firsts I think. Good luck to the future!
Thank you! Yes Alberto’s coach (David) couldn’t have been more humble. Everyone in the competition scene is very supportive 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Glad it wasn't just me. Watched this on a lunch break and had to laugh at myself for welling up over a climbing tournament recap video 😂
Congratulations for the gold 🥇🎉🥳
best part of watching the comp was you reacting to spilling your chalk - one of the funniest moments from the season
Everyone relates to that feeling of nailing your chalk bag from the top of the wall, no matter where I put it I always land on it 🤣🤣
Screaming my head off when I watched you top that route live! Epic climb, gold medal 🤞
Thank you :D
Congrats man!! As a fellow brit climber - what you're doing is so inspirational and going to do some much for our community in the UK. We all firmly behind you for the olympics!
Thank you! I’ll do my best 😆
That hold as a souvenir is legendary. So cool big ups to you can't wait to watch you in paris!
Cried at the end ❤❤❤❤

Thanks! Koper was a great comp, hope you enjoyed :)
His voice didn’t appreciate it after 😂
I knew it! I believe in you since the beggining. I cry again!! I am so happy and proud of you. Thanks to you and your dad for the amazing videos. I seeend you a big hug from México. I aaaaaam really happy for you. Bern was so heartbreaking but i knew that you are going to be an olimpian sooner or later. Have a nice rest. You really desserved
Thank you so much! Yes I worked hard after Bern to get into shape for this comp, I’m happy it worked out 🤩

Commentator : "Oh la vache!" (can't believe you pulled off the move)
Thanks for the translation 🤣
@@TobyClimbing In fairness he only said "holy cow", but that was the gist of it.
Love the fight you got in you dude. 💪 Come the fuck on 💪💪
Big stages definitely need more of you watching you since brixen keep doing your magic things toby🥷🏼🐐🤙🏻😄
I’ll try my best!!
absolute legend
Did I just shed a couple tears at the gym? No, my eyes are sweating because the kilter board is hard
lovely video ❤
Waaaaar Roberts!
😤
nice video format
Amazing comp! But I still don't know who put the bullfight song when you won 😂
😂
Your attitude is perhaps more impressive than your abilities… it’s probably the edge that got you the gong… and the ticket to Paris. First or last just savour the moment… you’re an Olympian forever! 🇬🇧🇫🇷🏅

Gonna say it again... FREAKIN' OLYMPIC CHAMPION!!!
Can't wait for the video.

Thank you :D nope, straight into hard training for me 😎
'Get off the wall!')))) No, Mr Tristan Roberts, it's too late, your kid is way too high up now)))
Huge congrats to you, your family and team coaches. Yet again I woke my cat up with a loud 'yeeeaaah' when you topped the final route. He has to get used to it I guess)
