In this slab climbing masterclass, Hannah Morris Bouldering teams up with pro climber Jenya Kazbekova as she shares her expertise on the art of slab climbing. For those of you who don’t already know Jenya, she’s a extremely accomplished competition and rock climber, who at 16 became the Ukrainian champion and is a regular face on the international World Cup circuit.
In this video, Jenya breaks down the different types of slab climbing techniques. She covers a range of topics, including body positioning, footwork, balance, and weight distribution, all essential skills for climbing on slabs. She demonstrates various techniques for improving your slab climbing skills, including how to use your body and feet to create friction, how to read the rock, and how to stay balanced on even the steepest slabs. In the session, you'll learn how to execute slab climbing moves with precision and confidence, and take your climbing to the next level.
Meeting Jenya, I was really taken with her attitude towards climbing as a sport that constantly gives knowledge and growth and her insights into mental training for performance. I hope you enjoy getting to know her throughout this session as much as I did.
