'Going feet first and locking it in the crack' = 4.5🌟 I'm ingraining the cracks into you gradually Magnus 😉

About a year ago I started an incredibly stressful job in the public mental health field, and started a membership at my local climbing gym at the same time. I was instantly hooked by the mindful nature of climbing and it became my most important form of self care. I wanted to get better, so I took to KZread for guidance and I found Magnus. This guy has inspired me and helped me with my climbing more than anyone and for that I’m so grateful! Thank you so much Magnus!!!

Woo, welcome to the bay! Pacific Pipe's the biggest climbing gym in the US, but for bouldering you've gotta check out Dogpatch Boulders back in SF proper too. It's got like 2x the bouldering square footage and even more interesting route setting (though I think the same route setters). Pacific Pipe is an awesome gym, but it's possible that Pacific Pipe has a higher rating than Dogpatch because it's brand new. While you're in town, I hope you can make it to Dogpatch!

I don't even climb, but climbing videos are my favorite 😊Always lovely to see Anton as well! 💜

Glad to see you make it to Pacific Pipe in Oakland, Magnus! This is my home gym where I meet with my climbing group. Among other amenities, this place has programmable lockers (so no need to bring your own locks), showers, and a dry sauna. I remember coming when it opened Summer 2021 and thinking it was so huge that it felt like a climbing theme park!

Thank you Magnus for keeping me going throughout my climbing journey, once I hit v4-v5 I started loosing hope that I wasn’t good enough for this but your videos gave me hope for what’s to come, now I’m almost v6. Keep up the good work!!!

Watching your videos always makes me get out of bed and head to the gym to keep pushing myself to try to better myself each and every day. Thank you for getting me into and showing me a new love for climbing!

I like how cheerful Anton always sound. Bring a smile to my face.

I loved this gym so much my wife and I took a day off and traveled here. I absolutely love it. She says she’d rather stay local and climb with friends. Of course she’s right. The best gym is the one with your local climbing community. So maybe we have to move to Oakland 😂

I would like to watch a multi part series of you guys climbing every single wall in one of these climbing gyms. Start with every V0 then V1s and so on up to the hardest routes.

You are just an incredible climber Magnus! Just awesome and get so inspired by your video and channel! Thank you

Never climbed but watching your videos about an year already, they are addictive really, thanks for quality! As just an observer I can say how much power Anton is putting in where Magnus is doing it with half of that power (I can see the difference between the tension of their muscles), so I guess it's all about technic, not power. So keep trying Anton, you only need some practice, don't relate just on your power, but understanding where to push and where to release.

Next video challenge idea: Climb routes without knowing their V# and then guess which ones they were.

Forcing everyone to listen to specific music is dumb in a gym. If you want to listen to music, bring your own. Especially in a gym this large where it's not awkward to be more or less silent.

Seems like a great gym! And most importantly it looks like the two of you are having fun 😄 Editing-wise it was a bit much on the cuts from different angles. It made the video a bit too chaotic for my taste in watching. I know you take your videos and the quality very seriously, so I hope this tiny bit of criticism helps you out for the next one :) Keep up the good work and making those boulders look easy!

I really enjoy when u go from low to high grade wise. So pleasant. Thanks for the entertainment as allways!

I love your videos, they're great and always make my day!

I don’t think that the music thing should’ve contributed to the scoring because it’s a commercial gym. If you were invited to film or if you asked all of the other customers for permission I’d say that it could be considered but it’s a public business after all.

Can you make a climbing specific entrine body workout with focus on grip an pulling strength? 💪
