very interesting seeing a small and big shoe comparison - that explains why me and my small feet might like foot chips/slabby/balancey climbing more than someone with bigger feet... had never previously considered shoe size as a factor, but it's just like how height changes our style/strengths/weaknesses/preference I guess.

Thanks for yet another super useful masterclass - there are so many of your videos that have me coming out the back of them feeling like I actually understand climbing better than before, and this is no exception. Such useful advice, and applicable to so much! One thing that stood out to me that wasn't mentioned here: the importance of hip mobility to get the most out of your feet. As someone with terrible (and I do mean terrible! But working on it!) hip mobility, one of the main reasons to choose standing on an edge rather than the pivot point is often that I simply can't do the latter without pushing myself off the wall, as the more sideways edge stance allows for hips closer to the wall without major rotation of the hip joint. The same goes for the "dig in your toes" part - which also requires quite a bit of hip flexibility to get close enough to the wall to find stability, as without that most likely my knee would be hitting the wall and pushing me off. While I do wish this had been mentioned in the video, it's still super interesting to spot, and it kind of validates my feeling that some of the times when I feel like I'm either not strong enough or just can't find a good hold, it might actually be down to needing better mobility in order to get into the position I need. And, of course, practicing moves like these is a great way to work on that mobility!

@TheManInBush 3 ай бұрын
that was mind blowing - espeically the ending comparing larger vs smaller shoes - larger need more stability for comfort climbing and smaller require move movement just to complete routes - imagine a big person who can effectively use their pivot point, those moves could be massive!

Oooh interesting! I’ve been in my CS Drones for 5ish months now and they seem pretty durable so far, but the real test will be if Nathan goes though the toe knuckle like he usually does with climbing shoes 🥲 I’ve never tried the OG.

Great video! I got some good tips and insights out of this for sure. I agree with what's been said earlier in the comments though: slightly less theory (maybe 1/3 instead of 1/2). However that's not to say that the bit of theory that will get 'left out' isn't useful, but maybe it's better suited for another format, like shorts? That would maybe make the total big video under 25 min which would probably increase the click rate as well and help with the overall pacing. Also: Casual Louis feature haha

Hello folks! I have an unusual question and would be interested in your experiences: As I have a slight foot deformity, I often have problems in everyday shoes, and if they don't fit well, they also hurt quickly. As a result, I switched to wearing toe or barefoot shoes a while ago. I realise that climbing shoes should be tight and fit well. However, classic climbing shoes don't work for me, or I would have to choose shoes that are much too big because otherwise my toes would push over each other. Does anyone have any experience or ideas for climbing shoes or similar that don't squeeze the toes? (Also toe shoes etc.) In the past I had Vibram Fivefingers (VI-B), but unfortunately they were not at all designed for the strain on the wall and the sole didn't convince me at all.. Thank you!

I'm really considering the Drones for next shoe and I'm primarily an indoor boulderer who's mainly used thin shoes in the past. I just wondered if you would recommend the CS version and how much you would recommend downsizing as I've heard conflicting ideas. Thanks!
@hannahmorrisbouldering 4 ай бұрын
The CS is the shoe I wear most regularly, and I’d recommend if you’re climbing indoors a lot. I don’t downsize at all. I’m a street 5 (US 6) and go bang on 5 in the CS HV. I could probably get away with a half size down, now that they’re worn in, but it took me a fair bit to get them worn in so 5 seems right. Hope that helps! ☺️

So I have a question for any climber reading this. I started climbing about 2,5 months ago and it seems like I'm currently getting stuck at 6A/6B and I have a rough time getting past that. I know there's a lot of technique I'm currently missing, but there are loads of boulders with horrible crimps that I just cannot even get started on because I don't have the finger strength yet. I've had to use some of those before, and I succeeded with quite some trouble. But past the point of 6A/6B it seems like these horrible holds are suddenly getting way more frequent and way worse. On some of them I can hardly even get moving from the starting position because of it. Currently I just feel like I need to keep climbing 3 times a week and be patient until I get the finger strength I need and simply focus on my technique in the meantime. Am I correct or am I missing something? Is there perhaps something else I can do to speed up the process, or will that just end up injuring me?
