After many years of dreaming to climb this boulder, it’s finally closing in to being a reality. The moves feel doable, and major links are being made. Will it be possible for me this trip?

Heyo all!
I'm currently in Fontainebleau, and wanted to post a sort of "update" with how things are going here. This video is maybe a bit unusual compared to many things i've posted lately, but I hope you all enjoy it nonetheless!
Cheers homies
so psyched
Cool format for a video. Looking strong!
4:35 very nice to hear that you consider the wildlife while climbing!
Outdoor content is my favorite content. Bonus points for it being Font, because I have many good memories myself.
Rocking the drones og or 2.0's?
Such a magical fantastic video!
It somehow feels like you've filmed this after sending the boulder and making a small video apetizer to prepare for the big drop.
Loved the video and really don't want to be a downer here but it's just not cool to climb at night in Font and it says so in every guidebook…you even mention it yet you're still outside when it's completely dark (or at least the footage makes it out to be so). We all know how hard it is to let go when you're making progress in a session but a lot of people will be watching this and may do the same and also climb at night. So just stick to the rules I guess. We don't need another climbing area being shut down. I hope this does not come across as condescending or anything and if so it's not supposed to be. Love and peace!
great video !
I was looking forward to this one 🙂 Merry Christmas and thank you for 2023 content. You have been my biggest motivation this year and I think it's mostly thanks to you, that I've managed to reach my goals and raise my climbing level a lot this year. Your energy and love for the sport is incredibly inspiring.
Honestly, the light makes it look like peak conditions. Great how this video feels and, ofc, stoked as always to see you climbing !
Keep on grinding bro! Your "fight for progression" videos are the most enjoyable (at least for me).
Amazing to see you back on this again!
gg Emil
Wow, this makes me so excited to get out and project! Thanks, and merry Christmas! 😊
this is a sick update!
Could you share you protocol for using antihydral?
Let's go Emil! I know that you can send this boulder. Keep that positive attitude and remember you're capable of so much more than it seems like in any given moment.
How can you still not pronounce Fontainebleau…
Keep working on your dreams Emil! You will get it one day! Your body is already adapting to make this a reality! <3 Good job!
I love the hard projecting comtent. I am just starting to enter a fase in my own climbing were real projecting is beginning and it is good to see someone so much stronger struggeling with the same things!
duuuuuuude this has me so stoked (the color work on this video is incredible by the way)
Love it!
God Jul, Emil
Love watching you session famous boulders 👌
Immediate like. Love this style of video
Love this style of video. Super laid back and relaxing but also you're really trying hard and sharing your technical progression as you go. Hope to see more of this kind of video if you like making them!
really love this kinds of videos!! just you talking to the camera about the beta micro-beta and all of those stuff seeing you struggle is kinda in an odd way inspiring even though you dont succceed you always get something more out of the climb! keep up the good work Emil, love your videos!!
Seems like maybe that right foot smear thing isn't taking enough weight on the last move you were trying? I assume double heels is too wide? Obviously I'm just speculating blindly here lol
I love how you celebrate small learning experiences when you're climbing rather than just getting frustrated by similar-looking attempts. I can see how this is smart and makes the whole experience better!
Lets goo buddy
why am i getting sam sulek vibes from this video? 😀
the dog: "what hooman doing?"
Videos like this are my favorite. Keep it up, man.
I love that climbing has progressed to the point that people are using V11 footage as b-roll background video while they talk about their main project. Super strong man. And the big island looks like a lot of fun.
Good luck 🍀
This looks and sounds very similar to when I project at my limit, just way harder 😂
Hi Emil, as someone that usually projects for hours. I sometimes find hard to explain the level of focus and why I stay so long at one spot. But it is all about those micro adjusments and learning. I enjoy this type of content a lot, I hope you share more!
Was needing some more outdoor Emil content. My favorite videos.
i love this style of video! i hope for many more!
I dont really like the tiktok format where you show a send video while explaining something. Id prefer to see the whole thing and give it my attention.
7:25 "so for sure it could potentially go" 😅 thats the spirit
Is it wise to keep throwing yourself at it all day long while progressively getting weaker and weaker and weaker? Save some attempts man 😂
Looking good!
I love how positive he remains after every fall. He falls and says, “ok! It’s good!…”
Good stuff. Cool that you posts these projecting videos. Good reminder that everyone need to fight to when you`re trying at your max level. Also nice to see progress and how you remain positive after multiple attempts. This will go for sure! Keep pushing!
Hey Emil, could you add timestamps to a session like this in the future? This would give us a sense on how long a session like this takes and how much rest you take in between attempts.
Thanks!
