Your video on Jain Kim was the first climbing video I ever saw. It was sent to me by someone who wasn't even a climber, and at the time I didn't climb either. It was just such a good video, we loved it watching it anyway! You have a really genuine style of content creation that feels totally unforced. I remember that video was so fascinating and informative, and the footage you edited in to illustrate your points so well was just beautiful. Seeing her climb, and hearing how you spoke about it- analysed it, explained it, celebrated it- stayed with me. I started climbing a little while later, and fell completely in love. I feel lucky every day to have climbing in my life. I wish you all the best!

I have always thought that most KZfaq channels present their content because they want teach or are passionate about the subject or want to perform & that if they made a little $ it was a nice benefit but was secondary to the former. Your short thank you at the end of this video demonstrates my thinking is mostly correct. And as a viewer & not a content provider I would also say thank you to you as well as others who provide the content, you are the reason YT & other less censored platforms exist & thrive. Hope you do well in your chosen profession & are honorable in a field where so much corruption is the absolute norm.Thank you!

We have to thank you! I learned so much about limbing from your videos. History, techniques and simply different angles of how to look at climbing and why it is such a great sport. For there is a big difference between knowing the big names in a sport and actually knowing why they also deserve to be "these names". You made this possible for me. Videos on another level. I am truly amazed by your ability to destill these videos out of videos of people "simply climbing up a rout". So thanks for showing me a glimps of the horizon of what climbing actually has to offer. All the best to you and hopefully you can still bring out videos or host your from time to time, we need you ;)

If you're looking for something stiffer hop on Naked Teenage Girls 12a (super stiff and techy)
