After one year, Kajsa Is back! The entire crew have been waiting for her arrival after the injuries, so we figured the best way to celebrate this was to create a lead video.
Kajsa chooses a route that scares her and she wanted to give it her best try, hope you like the video!

  • This was one of my favorite episodes yet. Not because I like lead climbing so much but because of the story telling and raw emotion. You can’t force this but when it does happen it’s really special. Great work and happy for Kajsa :)

  • I can really relate. I've had acrophobia since I was very young. I did bouldering for years, and still wasn't over it. Once I started climbing with auto-belays on a 32 feet wall I finally started feeling comfortable with the height, and that ended up making a huge difference in my bouldering. I didn't realize until the fear was gone how much it was holding me back even just a few feet off the ground and indoors.

  • This is cool because i'm so afraid of heights when climbing but it's awesome watching her push through the fear, plus she's just so chill and fun

  • PLEASE, MORE LEAD CLIMBING!!! Where I'm from my gym does not have a very big bouldering section and it is nice to see indoor lead climbing apposed to outdoor because not everyone gets the opportunity to go outside and can only climb indoors. Love the vids guys and wish I could climb in such an awesome gym like yours!!

  • Yaay Kajsa is back! I love watching her climb, she's just so strong and so on point. I also really liked to see a lead climbing video, and would love to see more in the future. I don't really do bouldering, because I'm too scared of injuries (I have weak ankles ok), but I'm trying to get better at lead so it's really cool to see some videos on that. Also it'd be interesting to see what climbers that usually specialize in bouldering can do on the lead wall, and what they think is the same and what is different for them. Great work on the video as always!
