26 FEB 2024 · I'd highly recommend jumping over to Youtube and Checking out the Magnus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPcf4Ye0bb4&ab_channel=MoreMagnus of him trying the comp boulders to give some context to what we're talking about in parts of this video!
12 JAN 2024 · Genya and I chat about her start into routesetting and the evolution of her role at Urban Climb in QLD. We discuss the pros and cons of social media, alterntive sources of motivation, riding the waves of psych, hiring and training new setters and much much more!
31 OCT 2023 · I chat with Canadian setter Kaleb Thomas.
Kaleb has worked at multiple gyms across Canada, spanning an almost two decade career as a route setter. In his current role as 'Director of Setting' at Blocshop in Montreal he talks about the challenges and satisfaction that come with training new setters and managing teams across multiple venues.
Kaleb is undoubtedly one of the hardest working and most passionate setters I've spoken to and I have a renewed appreciation for my comparatively easy and undeniably privaliged introduction to setting many years ago.

In the last couple of years, he's taken on a role as head setter at Hang, one of London's newest bouldering walls where he's taken on the challenge of 'making climbing fun again'. Hear about that and much much more!
