video taping is a good way to get control of some bad climnbing habbits and work on improving technique. seriously. a good climbing is a good climber period.
Ran into one of my favorite climbers at the collums this weekend (mike south you know you RULE) and i waited to watch him climb. I wanted my noobie to see true poetry in motion. every time i see him climb it insprires me to want to improve my grace and my fluidity on the rock.
it is true that by in large women have better foot work then men do out of neccesity. we are less likely to be able to muscle our way up something so we work it out with the strongest part of our body, our legs.
oh and for those of you new to climbing, you might want to invest in some arnica. your for arms are gunna BURN i like the gel stuff the best. it really helps sore muscles.
