Vertical Thoughts

Today we interview Vital Climbing gym setter Max Klauss(@maxklauss) and discuss his roots in competitive climbing, and his journey from a competitive youth climber, to a casual gym climber, and now as a professional routesetter. Max shares with us the mental obstacles of being a youth competitor, and how your mindset has to change to think and perform more like a setter. We also talk indoor vs outdoor sport climbing, and our hot take: Rock Climbing is Dangerous?!?! See you next week!
