and mantle yourself up over
the top of the boulder.
710
00:28:09,487 --> 00:28:12,757
So you've been put through the
test on the main climbing day,
711
00:28:12,857 --> 00:28:15,760
and this is going to be
definitely the next level.
712
00:28:15,860 --> 00:28:18,096
- Obviously, there's a lot
on the line here.
713
00:28:18,196 --> 00:28:19,946
This is your first of two boulders.
714
00:28:20,031 --> 00:28:21,933
The person that tops the most boulders
715
00:28:22,033 --> 00:28:24,251
in the fewest amount of tries
will win and gets to continue
716

on in this competition.
717
00:28:25,704 --> 00:28:27,072
- What do you think?
718
00:28:27,172 --> 00:28:29,657
- I'm psyched.
719
00:28:29,741 --> 00:28:31,276
- It's a roof.
720
00:28:31,376 --> 00:28:32,693
Love that.
721
00:28:32,777 --> 00:28:35,914
So hopefully I can just,
like, pull it out the bag.
722
00:28:36,014 --> 00:28:36,998
- It's a sexy piece of rock.
723

[laughter] Let's get going.
724
00:28:38,883 --> 00:28:40,452
I'm excited.
725
00:28:40,552 --> 00:28:43,104
I think this is, like, pretty
par for the course in Texas,
726
00:28:43,188 --> 00:28:46,124
and so I'm very excited to get on it.
727
00:28:46,224 --> 00:28:47,508
- Yeah, let's do it.
728
00:28:47,592 --> 00:28:49,543
- So Mario, you're going
to be going first
729
00:28:49,627 --> 00:28:52,380
based off of how you did
in the main climb.
730
00:28:52,464 --> 00:28:53,848
- Okay.
- Sick.
731

as long as I'm patient with myself,
739
00:29:07,879 --> 00:29:09,330

741
00:29:12,984 --> 00:29:15,569

I'm going to have to do
742

is really just dig down deep in myself.

from the first elimination climb.
847
00:32:43,828 --> 00:32:45,779
It's a less-than-vertical slab,
848
00:32:45,863 --> 00:32:47,748
and the holds are tiny.
849
00:32:47,832 --> 00:32:50,751
Most of them are only
a few millimeters thick,
850
00:32:50,835 --> 00:32:53,538
so the route is hard to find.
851
00:32:53,638 --> 00:32:55,506
You'll need to use finger strength,
852
00:32:55,606 --> 00:32:58,792
great footwork, and balance to
finesse your way to the top.
853
00:32:58,876 --> 00:33:00,261
As you can see,
854
00:33:00,345 --> 00:33:01,762

than the last one.

- Not quite as overhanging,
856
00:33:03,281 --> 00:33:04,732

- Yeah.
859
00:33:07,318 --> 00:33:08,702
- It's a lot more technical,
more footwork
860
00:33:08,786 --> 00:33:11,189
and balance involved, and, you know,
861
00:33:11,289 --> 00:33:12,806
finding the right body positions.
862
00:33:12,890 --> 00:33:14,909
And that idea of being patient
is always important
863
00:33:14,993 --> 00:33:16,644
in slab climbing.
- Mm-hmm.
864
00:33:16,728 --> 00:33:19,213
There are definitely some
holds where you are dreaming
865
00:33:19,297 --> 00:33:21,315
and wishing that they could be better.
866
00:33:21,399 --> 00:33:24,068
So the challenge is trying
to get your footwork
867
00:33:24,168 --> 00:33:25,918
to support you as much as possible,
868
00:33:26,004 --> 00:33:28,255
and also keeping your body in
and keeping your core,
869
00:33:28,339 --> 00:33:31,576

thinking with that sort of...
871

that foreboding or that sense of failure.
872
00:33:37,348 --> 00:33:38,899
You have to accept, and I have to accept,
873
00:33:38,983 --> 00:33:40,434
and I always have accepted that failure
874
00:33:40,518 --> 00:33:41,835
is part of this process.
875
00:33:41,919 --> 00:33:43,003

you can't grow.
