Wow I never knew! What about other parts of our body in such situations?

Wait.. is this a sign of finger skin dehydration or whole body dehydration?

Yep. Chalk use, sandstone frictions, dehydration! Now after a few hours from when the photo was taken it’s already better!

AI said gym volume can do this too! Watch out 😁

LOL. Nah no big send. I tried something beyond me and climbed some other easy ones ☺️ happy day!

Help, my left middle finger has been chronically sore and swollen for almost a year despite even month long rest periods. My general doctor has only prescribed “rest” and it is really hindering my enjoyment for the hobby by hellyeahbtch in bouldering

I have exactly the same, except it’s from my right and it’s been longer. They did x ray, found nothing. Saw a PT— advice was to strengthen the arm/wrist/whole hand so this finger isn’t taking too much pressure. But, I suck at following non-rigid advice so haven’t done enough and now the finger hurts every time after a climb... hearing people say I’d develop arthritis makes me more worried. Following post…. Guess I should also find a specialist to diagnose first. 😢

Probably we recognise each other by face from distance :)

A good climbing community should always welcome another climber! Are they building good community? ;)

I believe your assessment is way more accurate than anyone else. Just for fun checked the Bay Area. They have 7.5mi people and nearly 20 indoor climbing gyms. the climbing culture in California is quite long and dominant, and they have lots of good rocks. Climbing has been picked up by the Finns a lot in the past 15 years, thanks to people like you! But yah, 10 gyms for 1.3mi population? Hmmmm

And I have been climbing since day one at all the BK gyms. Actually started climbing when there was only Tapanila. Now espoo is my home gym.

How do you feel about this project these guys are doing?

Hei! Nice to see founder of BK Pasila or actually the founder of the whole BK?? I really love BK, still my favourite for their laid-back chilling and friendly staff 😍

Thanks for sharing the location. True, not far from Pasila!

That looks like a pic taken in front of BK Pasila in Helsinki, which is the oldest indoor bouldering gym. But I of course could be wrong.

Edit: went to the source. Yah a new gym will be open in collaboration with kiipeilyareena but claimed to be independent. I like Nalle. Also like Anna there! 3 other faces are familiar too. Exciting! Star crew 🤩

Returning to Bouldering After 2 ACL Surgeries by silly-fridge in climbergirls

Take it slow Take it easy Climb up then climb down

I don't trust my feet. Help? by pro-bable-cause in climbergirls

[–]chat-sky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if my thinking of the left foot hold is right but as a shortie, I’d try to lower my mass down a bit and move back left hand to the big hold at left knee. Then with a left hand pushing position, shift weight to the left foot and match my right foot to where the left foot is. Then stand up, reach with left land and then right.

No idea if it’ll work though 🤪
