Training with an 8C+/V16 Boulderer • Aidan Roberts and Jim Pope Board Climbing

- This week we've got something a little different... British winter isn't the most reliable for conditions, so often you end up having to change your plans on the day. In this particular case, we had planned on a big day out on the Staffordshire Gritstone, only to find everything wet...
So instead we settled for crimping on small pieces of wood underground. It was a good laugh and some disgustingly hard moves were done so the day was far from being wasted.
The video doesn't do justice to quite how bad some of these holds are, but then again I guess they're about what you'd expect from possible the strongest set of fingers in the world...

The guy only training on wood: "The best beta is just to be stronger"
Aidan's got his own woodie. It would be awesome to see a sesh in his place. Great video.
I'll try and get one filmed 👍
Whats a sesh?
@@fuegopuro5933 short for session
@@WEDGECLIMBING would def love to see a tour/sesh of Aidan's wall
Man. I wish i could train that much without my body breaking. 3/4 board sessions + hangboarding and off the wall stuff, and i don't doubt a cheeky sesh outside or two. Jealous of that training history.
Well you dont just start doing that volume, you grow into it.
@@yannikbaltes3552 I'm trying haha. I'm in my 6th year of climbing though, not brand new, not an expert.
Great stuff! A video of these guys smashing out some moonboard benchmarks would also be cool :)
Thanks!
How good is board climbing!!
Also dead convenient for checking your gas meter 4 times a week 💪
😅
Nice to see what can be done with only a tiny board! Maybe I gotta get one, too.
Can't explain how much I loved this video, keep up the good work ❤️
Glad you liked it, will do!
I liked the video a lot.
Love to see so much dedication :)

They're a good combo 💪💪
More cellar video's plz🔥🔥 maybie even a video of aidens board?
I'm sure that can be arranged 💪
@@WEDGECLIMBING Heck yeah!!!!!!!
"you can do a session on these big open things and not really work your fingers" *is holding onto holds I would not be able to pull off the ground with* 😂😂😂
😅
lolol "my consensus"
😅
Nice vid, thnank you :-)
This video sure looks familiar XD Looked like a super fun session!
😅 apologies for the reupload, hopefully it's worth it for the 4k 💪
Wait, Jim's weakness is CRIMPING??? 🤣
Then my weaknesses is EVERYTHING!!!
😅 it's all relative...
That pinch campus was crazy 😅
Squeezing the juice out of them 💪
Great as always. Ratty Crimps!
Cheers!
I really enjoy the training mantra "I must be ready". Is there a story behind that saying being on this wall? Love to hear it.
It's a quote from the film 'Taxi Driver'
Are these two the DW & JW of the uk? If so I'm all for it
Cool episode! Always such high production standards. What app do you use to log the home wall problems?
Thanks! It's called retro flash 👍
Seems like if your board is in such a tight space, you gotta have loads of control just like these dudes.
Not much room for cutting loose that's for sure!
Would love to see a vid on Aidens board too!!
I'll see what I can do 👍
This reminds me of the Rumblr series GOT WOOD!?, An english version of that would be so good! You would certainly be best man for the job!
I'll have to check it out!
Nice homewall, whats it under on Retroflash?
Great video! Did you use t-nuts and if so, what's the space between each? Greetings from Luxemburg!
Thanks! All the holds are just screwed on 👍
For the record this is the 22nd time I'm watching this
😅 good effort! Glad you're still enjoying it 💪💪
Anyone know what Aidan’s trousers are?
What is the dimension of this wall? High, angle and length? And the full room? Thanks!
Nice video!
Wondering the same. Would love to make something like this
More training videos!
💪 that can be arranged
Yes, pls!
Dope
What is the brand of the holds? Because most of the holds have a branding with an W (kinda looking like the shape of an W) on it. Nice Video and greetings from Germany.
Thanks! There's a big mix, I think the ones with W are 'Hardwood Holds'
Love the dingy cellar setup! Do you know what deg the board is?
It's not bad is it! I think 45 degrees
@@WEDGECLIMBING cheers 😄
Is that the Core cellar board matting? I've been thinking about getting them for my own damp Sheffield cave.
Yes those matts are from core. They works really well for cellar boards 👌
Brill. Thanks for the reply@@WEDGECLIMBING
whats the angle of this board. building a ratty sheffield cellar board at 50 degrees this weekend so curious about what angle this one is for perspective
I think it's about 45 degrees 👍
What hold company would you recommend for people in the US? I’m looking for some crimps and pinches for a 45 deg wall but I can’t find a good brand
I would imagine a lot of the brands used on this board might be quite expensive to get in the US. Probably beastmaker would be the best option and they have a pretty wide range of holds
Any chance we could get some wood brands, aside from beast maker and hardwood holds? I built a woodie and would love to train like a savage.
Off the top of my head there are also 'Lock Holds' and 'Gucci Grains' 👍
Thanks!
Come and crush all my board's projects! Could be s series! :P
😅 touring the boards of Sheffield
@@WEDGECLIMBING Plenty of boards to get at! 🤔😅
What model of climbing shoes is Aidan wearing in this vid?
They look like the new scarpa instinct S
The new instinct slippers 👍
What are the foot holds used on this board?
They're little chips from 'Core'
what angle is this board?trying to chose angle for my build.
I think it's 45 degrees
Does anyone know wich angle the Board is?
It's about 45 degrees overhanging
What are the dimensions of this board they are seshing on?
What are the dimensions of this board? Seems quite compact, but still versatile!
Roughly 2m by 2m at 45 degrees overhung 👍
Thanks!@@WEDGECLIMBING
How tall is this board?
Probably a little over 6 foot
I want my own woodie soo bad... At the same time I'm having way too much fun at the gym tho

Retro flash 👍
