How Many V8+ Blocs in 90 Mins? A Simple Try-Hard Time Trial Session Catalyst Climbing 2023-09-26 | Louis and I like to tell each other a lot that we 'work well under pressure' when in reality we've both admitted once or twice that this really means we 'only work under pressure' and today we test that hypothesis. After the V8+ circuit in Bethwall Climbing Centre in East London got updated, Louis, fuelled by double espresso and Tenzing chaotically tries to tick off as many of these (quite hard) blocs in 90 mins. What ensues is a classically chaotic session filled with nuggets of insight into the way Louis approaches hard blocs like these, and Ink, as usual steals the show with his cameo appearances. 00:00 Introduction 00:47 An Unexpectedly Hard Bloc 02:40 Very Small Edges On An Overhang 03:07 Bicycles and Slapping Slopers 04:44 Seemingly Impossible Slab Made Harder By Volumes06:30 Second Slab09:14 A Louis Style Flash 09:45 'Shouldery' and 'Crimpery'10:35 A Full Value Flash12:00 An Unusal Rest13:57 Underclings and Hand Flips (hard)15:20 The 'Hard Hard' One16:07 Clutch Toehooks17:00 "Is That a Vape?"17:57 Confident Flash18:35 Sometimes It's Easier To Skip Holds19:58 A Year of Stretching 20:48 Louis Is Speechless (for once)22:49 Back For Revenge (slab edition)23:19 Back to Slapping Slopes24:30 The Last Hurrah 25:45 Punishment (outro)Want to get WEEKLY on-the-wall training from Louis Parkinson and off-the-wall training from Neil Gresham?
