Improve Your Crimps with Shauna Coxsey
Рет қаралды 187,375
Күн бұрынIn this weeks video, @ShaunaCoxseyClimber and Hannah Morris talk all things finger strength and crimp technique on at the newly opened @theclimbinghangaruk in Reading
The ability to use small crimp holds is part and parcel of good overall climbing technique. Crimping on small edges is something a lot of climbers love, and a lot hate. Small incut edges and flakes require a lot of finger strength, technique and good body positioning and can be tricky to master. In this video, Hannah and Shauna cover everything you need to know to crimp your way up the wall, from the basics of grip types for crimping and a masterclass in body positioning to work through crimpy problems with maximum effectiveness and efficiency.

Awesome content. Big fan of Shauna through her comp career. Wasn’t sure if she was gonna try and come back for the next Olympic cycle but guess it’s on to the next phase for her. Keep up the great work.

I actually started warming up more consistentl as a parent. Do some light exercises and hangboarding at home. Change the diapers. More hangboarding, pull ups, push ups,... Do some other stuff. Cycle to the gym and be ready to go for a short but intense session 👍💪 Great video! Keep crushing it!

one other tip NOT crimp related Hannah, is for people with tighter hips, when you were trying to get your left foot up on the red slab @7:13, a useful tweak is to turn your right knee TOWARD the slab (to the left) as you can get more reach. When your hip is super open like yours was (knee out to the right) its harder to get your left foot higher. I use this ALOT becuase my hips are tight and im shorter

To add something to the start explanation: The different ways to hold your a crimp with one or two fingers open hand dragged and the rest in a halfcrimp (chisle?) as you called it. It is often a result of your finger anatomy. Which fingers are long and short. Our hands are very different from each other. Some have short index fingers and long ring fingers or vise versa. Another thing about finger strength vs contact strength. For many this might be obvious but I'll still say it. Contact strength is how fast you can reqruite your finger strength upon contact with the hold.

This was probably one of my favorite videos of yours. Shauna did a great job of thoroughly explaining crimps (I had no idea there were three different types). And to me, it felt like she did a great job of pointing out specific instances during your climb where you should use different kinds of crimps, and most importantly, why. Very cool video! Thanks!

It is very cool to hear a professional climber speak about the problem all parent-climbers are facing: warm up when your session is limited to 1.5, maybe 2 hours because there is a child or the partner already waiting for you coming back from the gym/or whereever actually. Two hip injuries caused by badly/not bothering warming up were the consequence for me. Rather should have kept it slow and easy.. a lot of times less is more.
@i3dont3care3 Жыл бұрын
Thats so interesting what Shauna mentions about full crimping indoor vs. outdoor! I have the exact same experience!! Im also definitely a half crimper 100%, and find the full crimp quite uncomfortable, except sometimes outdoors it can feel more natural. So weird she has that too... I wonder why that is

im a beginner about 2-3 months in and barely do crimps. but recently finally was able to complete a v2v/v3 one that was giving me trouble and flashed and downclimbed a v1/v2 that i was never able to do. i guess i was just avoiding it too much to where i couldnt develop any strength for these holds but after recently trying them i feel like i have some grasp of it lol.
