I think this is one of our most insightful and helpful videos we've published - whilst I was filming and editing this I realised just how many golden nuggets of advise Louis was handing out during this session.
We're approaching 100K subs, and according to our analytics the majority of people who watch our videos aren't subscribed to the channel - we would appreciate it massively if you'd hit that sub button. Not only to help us reach a major milestone, but doing so really helps us to make more and higher quality videos. Thank you!

most of these tips were so obvious to me while watching, i was constantly mumbling to myself "yeah duuh", but immediately realized that these are the exact mistakes i constantly make! (i climb v4-5) Thank you very much for this video - the illustration with a climber that is relatable in skill & grade, and the dissections of each move afterwards were just perfect. Glad I am subscribed
-
These are all great. but the best tip I ever got from watching Louis, was for stepping on to bad footholds. It was the "just concentrate on taking the weight off the other foot, rather than trying to weight the bad foot". It completely changed slabs for me.
-
My key take-away from the video is that to progress further I need to think more about moving between body positions instead of moving between holds. Thinking of the holds as the steps is such a natural beginner mindset, but at some point it just stops working. Grabbed the hold, fell down, didn't progress to the new comfortable body position.
-
I love how Louis shapes movements and breaks them down into little steps to make them doable, so that at the end the entire movement actually is achievable. Nice work Louis! 👍
-
I can't get enough of these kind of video's. Exactly what I need: people on my level being coached by the best! Thanks Fin and Louis! (Key take away: do your footplacement drills! I need to hear this every video, haha).
-
Its all so technical, everything has to be really dialled in. Love it.
-
Absolutely loved this...Louis' coaching style is brilliant. I'm a teacher and so much of what he does is in line with educational theory - in fact I've used clips to show student teachers what to do!
-
THANK YOU FIN, Louie & Catalyst climbing for these amazing coaching videos
-
Louis, you are the reason for my quick progression. I watch your training videos religiously. I've been climbing since mid November. I'm currently flashing up to 5c and can do most 6a-6b after a few tries. My friends often comment that I've progressed very quickly and I always point them to your channel. You've helped me so much, Thank you!
-
Really love this video! Part coaching, part movement comparison, all helpful. Thanks!
-
These coaching videos in general are by my favorite part of your account! It’s been incredibly helpful in my climbing. The most helpful parts for me are breaking down dynamic moves and the mindset work - especially with other female climbers!
-
Awesome video! Louis your advices are great and well explained and Fin thank you for doing this, it was so good to see you taking in the advices and then improving!
-
Very instructive ... I have all of those issues/technical limitations so this really resonates with me. Thanks Louis!
-
Very helpful video - great job Fin! I’d have similar issues with these climbs, so your efforts were great examples for me. Very helpful advice Louie.
-
Great tips, Louis. My son was just saying to me the other day to break down the moves, get the positon right, and concentrate on each move as it comes. Really first-class coaching.
-
Fin's handle is fantastic! And the tips are definitively going to be useful, I think 😀
-
as a climber currently plateaued at v5, i'm excited to learn from this video!
-
I'm usually sceptical about climbing tips videos, but the format of coaching combined with/turned into general tips makes it very watchable, and makes it easier to pick up the lessons as well!
-
Thanks for the video. I love this kind of series. I mean, all your videos are great, but this kind of video I get the most for my next climbing training as a beginner
