Dang your channel is blowing up. Really enjoy this content.

Great video, keep it up

This was interesting, thanks for sharing!

Great shots really got angles

Excellent video, thank you for sharing! (good music choice too)

very cool, thanks for sharing

Good job Brittany!

Now I want to cruise up to Golden to try these problems!

Oooh I love the consensus board thingy! Super nice insight too, really makes one to want to go into the profession ahah!

I know from experience that it takes a lot of extra mental effort to film while you set. Good on you for making these videos happen. I really enjoy them. - Dave

great editing! loved the video

Very cool video, was really surprised to see that you have only 622 subscribers. Will be more than happy to come back in few months and see the growth of your channel :) Good luck!

I'm really struck by not just how much thought and but also how much consideration you put into routesetting. This was a really wholesome and enjoyable video to watch.

This is my new favorite route setting video. So well done, thanks for sharing!

Love this video! Fun to see and hear your thoughts behind setting routes :)

great video! in my experience there's a lack of routesetting content, so having high quality content from you is awesome! keep up the great work

Great looking gym. Thanks for sharing , very informative!

Nothing but respect for setters. I love seeing behind the scenes of setting. Keep it up!

Super interesting video! I'm exited to see whats coming in the future :D

This is cool & the editing is chill, well done

super cool insight. i love the setting at movement - awesome vid :)

unexpected rave session at 3:20 got me! :D but also super nice to see how the work is done and sometimes disturbed. keep it up! :)

Thats amazing. Not the torn labrum though, sorry to hear about that. Hope recovery is going well!

This was a great video! I can see you put a lot of work into editing. I was really interested in the work that went into making boulders accessible to a wide variety of body types. I, personally, am a very large guy (6'9") and some of the boulder starts in my gym are just impossible for me to get into the starting position and/or being very large makes otherwise tricky moves trivial. Of course, it's unreasonable to expect people to set with the very tall person in mind, but I do admit to being envious of the people who are able to do the boulders as the setters intended. Keep up the good work!

Love getting insight on how route setters think. It helps me to understand the intended beta of a climb. Though I am notorious for using my absurdist climbing and completely ignoring the intended beta lol

It's very interesting to see the thought process behind routesetting, nice video! If you accept some constructive criticism your audio is pretty bad: at first it was inaudible and then very sibilant. I'd recommend a cheap lap-mic for live audio and a pop filter for the voice-over (and some audio processing). Keep them coming!

This! Or a de-esser plugin/eq. You can often find the annoying frequency and EQ that out. And using a compressor would help level the sound between voice over and talking to the camera.

@@brittanywarren3446 Other things that work if you don't want to invest in new hardware is to just try out different ways of recording audio with your phone. Putting the phone out of the stream of air that exists when you talk can prevent the sharp S sounds, and also putting a bit more distance between the phone and your mouth.

As a new routesetter (started in the last six months) its super cool to watch someone with obvious experience set. I loved how you came into your boulders with a general idea of what you wanted to set for it, as well as how all the boulders had very different climbing styles, which is so vital for climbers. Super well made video as well, and I'd definitely love to see more of you setting!

Loved this video. :) so soothing and fun to watch. Your boulders look super fun. Yalls crowd sourced grading system is also awesome! As an aspiring route setter, I'm looking forward to more vids like this one. 😀

These videos are really interesting and fun to watch! My only critique is that the vertical footage is a little jarring to watch, and are difficult to enjoy on a computer. Other than that, the video was cool, and I learned a lot. Looking forward to more content in the future!

Great video! I feel like youtube has a lot of content from the climbers perspective, but not much content from a route setter's perspective. It was cool to see how everything is organized.

Totally agreed. There's such a curtain drawn over the whole setting industry, I find that very interesting because they are so vital to a gyms success.

Sooooo this is really fascinating both because this is all cool stuff to learn and also that’s literally the gym I go to lol so it’s incredibly interesting to see the thought process for some routes that I’ve actually climbed. As a route setter, obviously having to test boulders, do you have to be a skilled enough climber that you can climb all your routes? Does at least one person on the team have to be able to climb it? Will they adjust what routes you’re supposed to set based on ability? All I know is that testing all afternoon sounds TIRING

Cool to see our Movement Gyms on a cool channel like yours, see you around! will try to mention I'm among your first 1000 subs :)

Super cool video! I just arrived at this new gym. I’ve been climbing for a little over a year. I can climb around V4 leaning into V5. They said they need a new temp routsetter, I don’t know if I’m up for the task. I would love to do it and it’s a fairly small local gym. Any advice?

Great video ! Subscribed hoping to see more of those ;) Can you explain the part at 4:42 where you put chalk on the hold tho ? I thought the point of brushing holds was to improve grip, by removing chalk from pores of the hold !

@brittanywarren3446

Sorry I'm alittle late to reply-- you'd be surprised how slick a freshly washed hold is! Especially if the hold is older💀. Having some chalk (not a lot) definitely helps.

That's crazy my gym only does a few routes a week so it's not this much work either.

Super interesting. Would like to see more. Some of the audio was a bit lower and harder to hear. Just a small note, but loved the video!

Yes! I set for competitions as frequently as I can.

my dream job

I'm like the idea of starting with a focus hold. The gym I help set at has limited feature holds, so I've been having a good time building aesthetic routes using blockers. Looking forward to the day we have big ol honkin nearly-volume holds!

I have a question and i know it might seem dumb but how do you get into route setting. Im relatively a new climber around half a year (on and off due to school and exams) and ive only joined one competition which was nationals in Malaysia that i went just to gain experience and have fun. But im really interested in the sport and route setting. So my question is how did you start setting?

@brittanywarren3446

Definitely not a dumb question. In fact it’s probably one of my most commonly asked questions. I actually plan on making a How I got into routesetting / my tips to get into routesetting video very soon so stay tuned for that I should be able to answer your questions in a lot more detail than on here!

Do you guys set grades that you can't send consistently?

8:04 do you find that having curved walls like that limit your use of larger holds/macros?

@brittanywarren3446

Жыл бұрын

100%. Certain walls here are so curved there's just no hope, other walls are just curved enough that if you get a macro to sit flat you thank the gods. Thankfully not all of our walls are curved :').

Do you have to able to climb really high grades like V10 to be a rousetter?
