  • Soon I'll be going to Flatanger, the cave that hosts a chunk of the world's hardest routes, such as Silence (9c/5.15d) and B.I.G (9c/5.15d). In today's video I train in preparation for a trip to Flatanger using a gigantic playground.
    Coordinates to the staircase: 59.293177, 18.056768
    Huge thank you to ‪@EricKarlsson‬ for joining me on this session and Cordelia for filming!

    I’ve made it to Flatanger already, and believe it or not but this was actually the perfect training for it. I think if I trained to climb this a few times per day for a few weeks it would be great preparation for the climbing here, as it’s around the same length. A lot of the holds are a little bit better on the routes, but you have difficult boulders in between everything, so with good endurance on jugs you can manage to recover for the hard boulders. Keep your eyes peeled for future videos from the gorgeous cave! 👀

      @sysdollarsystem Месяц назад +13

      If you are going to seriously use this for training could I humbly suggest that you a) don't use the bars at all and b) add some variation on the long drags by moving out to the edges of the staircase and back and diagonally through to provide more consistent finger difficulty while adding some more "awkward" positioning.

      @@tegridyfarms6197 will try and do a route called Odin’s Eye and see how much endurance I can build! Very cool climbing, but I struggle a lot with kneebars and the cave is quite dependent on them, so I’m currently figuring out bathang rests and other tricks to avoid the kneebars 😅

    Since it is a man made structure, all the round "holds" are identical and all the flat "holds" are identical - which probably makes this climb even harder for your grip and CNS, as the exact same muscles work all the time. Where as on a natural rocks, there will be variation, tireing out more different parts of the grip musculature.
    Well done, young man. Now you just need to do it a couple of times a day for a couple of weeks 👍👍

    One specific tip: If you have very flexible hips, then you can do one-leg front lever moves, with the other leg up along your upper body. Doing that increases your reach so much that you can sometimes static roof moves that otherwise have to be dynos. I could do that when I was young and flexible 30-40 years ago, but not any longer. :-(

    There's a bolted cave in Nevada with completely horizontal routes about 250 ft long if you want endurance. You won't find it listed online or in a guidebook but it's there and awesome.

    I like how an outdoor staircase becomes the ultimate climbing challenge.
