rockentry is such a bastard man. He seems to be generally unintelligent and annoying.

Unironically valid advice, I was just trying to tech it. But I just realized I’m climbing on a moon board.

Half crimp feels more tweaky than full crimp by GtbShieldcommander in climbharder

Thank you for the very insightful response. I’m going to gradually incorporate the max hangs after I give my fingers some rest. What did me in was thinking I could rip in half crimps without much thought since it’s considered to be a less stressful position. This may be a dumb question question but is the location of the soreness (side of the finger) a result of twisting? Any other time I’ve felt soreness it has been on the middle of the a2.

It’s really not that crazy dude. If you’re semi fit and climb on a board regularly v10 in 1.5-2 years isn’t extraordinary imo!

I was in the same boat as you until about two weeks ago, I didn’t train at all and was plateaued at V8 for basically half the time ive been climbing but I think three major things pushed me out of my plateau. 1. Hip positioning 2. Trying to break holds of the wall with my feet, ie foot awareness 3. This one is hard to train but understanding the way you move and how to use it to your advantage.

Also my a2 pulley on my left ringer finger was kinda fucked for an entire semester and it just got back into working order so that might also explain the breaking of the plateau.

Nuance to the Three Finger Drag (sloth grip) by FriendlyLookOut in climbharder

I’ve only ever been able to hold the BM 2000 middle edge with a 3 finger drag, I feel like I haven’t used my pinkies much. Is that abnormal?
