6 World Cup Gold Medallists Vs 15 Insane Boulders
Day 2 of an amazing training event at Rockcity in Hull, United Kingdom in March 2024.
If you haven't seen it already then check the Day 1 video here:
• Worlds Strongest Climb...
On day 2 we revisted the '1 minute / 2 attempt comp' with levels 1 to 5 of Balance, Coordination and Power.
In March 2024, Rockcity and Serious Climbing Distribution kindly provided a training camp that included some of the Worlds best climbings holds that were expertly set by B-Pump owner Katsu and renowned Climbing World Cup setter Tsukuru.
There were strong Japanese, German and GB climbers that included no less that 6 World Cup gold medallists.
Climbers included Sorato Anraku, Miho Nonaka, Yoshiyuki Ogata, Daiki Sano, Alex Megos, Yannick Flohe, Max Milne, Hamish McArthur, Jack MacDougall, Jim Pope, Erin McNiece and Toby Roberts.

watching yoshiyuki ogata and alex megos on that coordination level five was crazy! really showing their mastery of those moves. great video toby!!!
Such a great climb, it was great to watch 💪🏼 thank you!!
This video and the last one are the missing content on KZhead and something that the IFSC should produce on its own instead of only focusing on competition. Please keep those coming and show us how friendly this sport is.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed I’ll keep trying to push the content out 😆🔥
Back-to-back incredible videos with amazing athletes!! These new holds look so clean, can't wait to see them in comps, thank you so much Toby!
Thanks a lot, yeah love the new holds. Can’t wait to compete on them 😈
Alex's face when he sticks Coordination level 5 is priceless😂
👀😂
Haha Alex’s aside was hilarious, that guy is a maniac. Thanks again for the video Toby!
Yes 😂 thank you!!
Your slab climbing is phenomenal! I remember watching a vlog from one of the world cups last year and you mentioning slab wasn't one of your strong points. The work you've put in definitely shows when looking back, you're evolving into such a well rounded climber! Banger content as always Toby, could watch these commentary style videos for hours on end
Thank you so much, I put a lot of work into slabs so it’s nice to see the work pay off 🤩 Thank you, glad you’re enjoying them and stay tuned for more!
Wow I didn't expect Megos of all people to stick the coordination 5 boulder. Good job from him
Very strong from him 🔥
I totally love this format! Nice to see you climb together 😗
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
These toby videos are slowly becoming a new favorite of mine. which is not an uncommen phrase but before it refrenced segar now a roberts. well done great content :D
Haha thank you 🤩😂
As a 16yo guy who just got their first finals/podium finish, you are without a doubt my biggest inspiration :D This comp style format looks sick, wish I could give it a go!!
Thank you so much, glad you’re enjoying and keep training hard 😎
Besides...he's 19 😉, but insanely smooth in his movements. With a little more experience he'll manage to figure out the Beta even faster. Holy Moly, the New Generation is so incredibly strong!
@@jengaremus I know, I meant that I was 16 lol mb
dude these videos are absolute gems, keep it up
Thank you!
WHAT A VIDEO! So many cool details in both the climbing itself (as well as the setting etc..) but also the production of it is silky smooth. Really enjoy the commentary, especially the moments when you point out things to learn from the specific boulders: interesting to see a more in depth analysis. Alex's side line was very funny (and not that inaccurate). The 'weird types of training' montage was really cool to. Please keep making these kind of videos. And thank you for inspiring me in my climbing.
Thank you so much!! I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos, stay tuned for more content 🤩💪🏼🙏🏼
Glad to hear it’s inspiring you, keep training hard 😎
This video was amazing! I love watching World Cup climbers come together and train. It really shows a new perspective on how much they love climbing. Those climbs looked tough, but Toby definitely crushed it! Good luck training!
Thank you so much, yeah it’s great to train with such psyched genuine people!
i love toby, he’s so genuine and he’s a real inspiration
Thank youuu :D
Really enjoying these last few videos. Cheers!
Great to see all of you in one big, fun training sesh! Really shows how collaborative climbing is!
Such a killer style. As a viewer I loved the pace, and it was cool that Alex Megos was just one of the guys in the video--it was low key but also had star power in it. Anyway I hope this blows up.
Incredible video!! So cool to see the best climbers on the circuit all training together and the commentary is so entertaining 😂 thanks for sharing and keep up the great work toby!!
Great video! Love this kind of climbing video with amazing climbing, clean edit, and your wonderful commentary. Can't wait to see more from your channel👍
Such a top level content. Amazing boulders, awesome climbers. Enjoyed watching this ❤
Thanks a lot for making this beautiful content Toby! Have been watching the world cups and see you improve so much over the last few years. Good luck for the Olympics! Rooting for you! Also, what a beautiful sport climbing is. Where you can hang out and have fun with the people you're also competing against. ❤
It is a great privilege to be able to watch them climbing in this competition. I am really enjoying this format and editing of the videos. Thank you very much for these incredible videos. I am very proud of your progress😊
Amazing video, thanks so much for sharing all of this.
No worries, thanks for watching :D
Your channel is such a wonderful outlier amid the rest of climbing youtube. for a top (the very top) level athlete to be producing content that as poetically articulate as this, from a perspective as rare as yours, while managing to maintain relatability-it's pretty unbelievable.
Thank you so much, it’s been great putting some content out to give an insight and I’m glad you’re enjoying :)
Thank you Toby! Best climbing content on YT.
Your videos are insanely outstanding ! Can't wait for the next one.
Thank you!! Stay tuned 👀
enjoyed your last couple of videos, subbed. looking forward to what you bring in the future!
Thanks a lot :)
Such a brilliant duo of videos from this camp. I wish there was more! Thanks so much for sharing
Thanks so much for watching 💎 new content to come soon 😆
Loved watchimg this!
Thankss 💎
Wow these videos were incredible. I'm quite new to being a fan of climbing (although I've watched many years' worth of competition streams already haha) and it's so so SO cool to hear your thoughts directly and see such amazingly skilled people have fun on these problems outside of the competitions. You're all very inspiring. All the best for your training Toby! Those were some genuinely super interesting looking ways to train haha.
Fantastic video! Love your inside perspective on what we can see! 🙏💪
Thank you :)
this was so fun to watch. the combination of such incredible setting, top climbers having fun and friendly competition/training is just so cool to see! great video Toby
Thank you so much, stay tuned for more 👀
These videos are great. Really enjoying the content 🙌
Thanks 🤩
I love you Toby, see you on the podium soon
Thank you

Love your new video. I only recently started climbing and it's so cool to see what can be achieved. Knowing what it takes me to top one of my routes I'm even more impressed with what you can do.
Thank you so much!
Love your videos, voiceover is an amazing insight into elite climbing!
Thanks a lot 🤩

I’d love to see that too!!
Man that was so enjoyable! Great video!

Thanks a lot!
Amazing content Toby! Can't wait to see you at the olympics!
Thanks you, can’t wait 😈
Another excellent video Toby. The glimpse into your non-climbing training was interesting; would be good to see more in a future video.
For sure maybe in the future. Thanks for watching!
Great vid men! And what a nice way to see and live climbing, great luck at Salt Lake!
Thank you 🔥🤩
Another fantastic video. Good luck in Salt Lake this weekend Toby!
Thanks!!
Another banger from Toby! Good luck in the Olympics bro!
Thanks a lot!!
I honestly haven't been climbing much due to other interests in life right now, but this just made me really psyched and you've earned a new subscriber for sure. Awesome video
Great to hear thanks a lot :D
Good stuff as always
Thanks for watching 💎
that was awesome!! the non climbing training looked like so much fun too, those exercises can be so creative and often feel more like games :D
Yeah it’s great to add them in to mix the training up a bit!
That was a really cool collaboration. Great stuff.
Thank you :))
Tsukuru is one of my favorite setters, with Riccardo Caprasecca! Thanks Toby!
Me too!!
amazing love the channel
Thank you!
Masterpiece, as always…congrats
Thank you!!
That looked like it was so much fun for you guys. Amazing boulders! Amazing climbers!
It was awesome! Thanks for watching 💎
bloody good video, thanx
Thanks for watching 💎
Loved seeing the friendly banter between Toby and Sorato knowing that these two are gonna lead the pack of indoor competition for the years to come
Great video as always! Would love to see a video about your general approach to training. Some of the stuff you showed looked quite unique.
Thank you! Definitely maybe in the future :)
Brilliant series of videos! No-hands eliminates of some of those towards the end were impressive
Thank you :)) love doing no hands climbing 🤩
super good videos, thanks
Thanks :D
Loved the video and the enthusiasm of everyone in the video. Hope you don't mind me asking - Are you planning to put up a video of all the off the wall training that you have done that helped you improve your toe strength and overall lower body stability? Absolutely amazed at the slab climbing part
Please upload an uncut version. I wanna see every single attempt on every single boulder by all athletes
amazing video and quality (thanks for the HD options at 50fps)!
Glad you liked it!
Such a cool video once again
Thank you!
Thanks a bunch Toby. Not sure if we'd have gotten to see this event otherwise. SO AWESOME! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
No worries, thanks for watching!!
You aced it Toby, these collaborations are viewer favourites as well and it’s good t see you competing with your true peers
Thanks a lot 🙏🏼 glad you enjoyed it
We NEED Jajna in this format !! Nice one !!
Yesss it would be cool to see!!
Great video!
Thanks 💎
Heyy Tony All the on-sight camera recordings are in stereo 2 channel mode, (left ear). You can change it to mono in camera so you dont have to manage it in post. But you can also select the channels of audio in your editing software. So it doesnt into 1 ear only : )!
Thank you :))
Each new video is topping an old one! It's nice to see you training and laughing together. Unfortunately, this is very rare in other sports...
Thank you!! That’s what’s so amazing about climbing is how genuine and supportive everyone is!
Another banger. Cool to get a little peak behind the curtain at your supplementary training.
Thank you 👀
@@TobyClimbing a full video about it would be really cool, like everything you train apart from regular strength training and actual climbing
Wow Alex really improved in the dynos! Great to see
Very cool to see Miho in the mix!
Yesss 🔥
"I was psyched that all of my toes didn't simultaneously break". Gotta love the man's humour!
😂🔥
It’s so crazy watching you at my local gym. Tried the blocks after and they were absolutely insane 🤯
Thank you 🙏🏼😉☺️
So nice to see behind the curtain a little bit. It's genuinely inspiring. 🙏 Do you plan to compete in the Budapest Olympic qualifiers by any chance?
Thank you! I’m not actually allowed to compete there as I have already qualified. But I would if I could 😢
I loved that last power boulder because it still needed really subtlety (as well as power) to stick those crimps
Yes! It’s a common theme on the world cups. Everyone is very strong so the power boulders have to have a bit of a subtlety to them to split the field!
Insane coordination, strength and body control on level 5 -- congrats to Alex and Yoshiyuki!
So strong 🔥
@@TobyClimbing great job with the videos. Love how you're' so inclusive and appreciative of your cohort. And I'll be cheering for you in the Olympics!
I should’ve focus on climbing contents but 12:50 sorato is so cute 🥹
🤣
This is becoming my favorite gang of climbing pros.
😎🔥
The level 5 slab is insane! Can't image how those positions get established and transitioned to the next. Wonder if you may have a video talking about how to train for slabs
It was crazy! Maybe in the future 👀
Now you've got me wondering how a world class ballet performer would do at climbing and vice versa 😅 great video, and so fascinating to have a glimpse at some of your weird training exercises haha
Hahaha I’d be interested too 🥸
Great video! Could you maybe do a video on the training you do in addition to your climbing and the reasoning behing it (starting at minute 14 in the video)? That would mega interesting
Yes maybe in the future :)
Saw Yannick start that lvl 5 power boulder and instantly knew he was about to send it
🔥🔥
Damn, no matter how i think about it, its actually insane to believe someone has that much strength to do most of these boulders. My poor fingies & toes hurt just thinking of the strain
A lot of training!!
so inspiring and motivating to develop the right mindset
Thank youuu :D
Those slabs were gnarly, especially that level 5
Savage!
Miho is a powerhouse!
Beast 🔥
Dancing on the wall, that's how it looked like to me. Inspiring and motivational training format. Looked like a lot of fun despite the sketchy falls ;) Big shout-out to the setters.
Dancing in the wall is pretty accurate 😂
Great video
Thanks for watching :)
Love your videos, super inspiring. Can you show us what is your non climbing training session ? It would be super insightful , cheers
Yes for sure maybe in the future 🤩
i really like Alex wisdom at 2:31, felt that way after my last beginner level session :D
😂😂
i love how annoyed alex is :'D good stuff. bring back some more oldschoolstuff in comp climbing! :)
😂🔥
