My fav is the bonus tip. Strong friends also often know where the interesting climbs are when going outside, and they often make great spotters, and they learn alot (hopefully) when coaching you.
This is mandatory viewing for new climbers! Nice video. I've been binge watching all your videos since I discovered your videos the other day. I love them all.
That was awesome. The strategies are extremely similar with Louis', well worth the watch. And awesome to choose a harder climb that not only you had to think about, but could tailor the moves to your style as well. Great job!
Have you guys had any finger injuries? How did you manage them and keep yourself strong? All I want to do is climb but I worry it's making things worse.
Hey Danny - I haven't personally had any significant finger injuries yet, but my partner has had a couple over the years. His advice is to tape it for support (Alex Megos' method is awesome), continue to climb carefully and do rehab exercises. The old school advice is to stop climbing for a couple of weeks, reassess and after that only climb jugs for a while. I don't think this is helpful. As far as I understand the finger needs to continue to be loaded to heal effectively. (I'm no expert so definitely chat to a physio. Treatment will also always depend on the severity and type of injury). Hopefully we can collab with a physio and do a video on this sometime soon!

Very true! I also find they encourage me to hop on things I might avoid if I were alone. Always pushing me ☺️ In the best way.

love the Jack Russel thing. Tip rest 1 minute for every move you complete
Thanks Nick! Great tip! 🙌
Bonus-tip: Lose your sense of self-preservation. Yeet your way up as if you'll land every move and never get hurt falling. Injuries are a myth.
Haha not sure about the last bit 😅
