EDGEWORKS TEAM INTEREST MEETING |
|
|
Interested in being a part of Edgeworks’ Climbing team? Think you’ve got what it takes to pull hard and represent Edgeworks? We want you!
We’ve recently finished an extremely successful season for Team Edgeworks, with our climbers competing throughout the region, and receiving invites to the Divisional Championship in Utah, and the National Championship in Georgia. As the new school year begins, we’re looking forward to an even more exciting season’s beginning, and in order keep improving our team we’re shaking things up.
First, we’re recruiting new members! Team Edgeworks is holding an interest & information meeting for prospective members of the team Wednesday August 15th at 7:00pm. We’re looking for youth climbers who want to improve, and are willing to work hard to do it. Climbers and parents of climbers who want to find out more about what Team Edgeworks entails, and whether or not they would be a fit for the team, are encouraged to come to the meeting. Remember, attitude is more important than age or present ability, so don’t be scared to come and learn about the team. This is your chance to ask questions of the Edgeworks coaching staff and current team members all in one place.
If you have any questions about the meeting feel free to shoot the gym an email. We’re looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday, August 15th at 7:00pm. |

C'MON CRUSH THIS! |
|
|
It's frustrating to hit a plateau, whether it's at 5.7 or 5.11. Climber Steph Davis has some tips for overcoming your plateaus and moving on to harder routes:
"If you feel like you have a solid base in your difficulty range, one way to step up your progression might be to start working on routes that are out of your current ability range. So if you feel solid at 5.9, start your climbing day by doing a few routes you can do (so you warm up and have fun), and then choose a 5.10 or 10+ to work on. Go through the whole exercise of figuring out the moves and then redpointing it, whether it only takes 2 tries or 8. If it happened quick for you, try an 11- next time for your project route.
When you start getting on routes that are too hard for you, it gradually changes your perspective about the climbs that are more in your regular comfort range. Just make sure you keep doing climbs that are easier for you also, so you continue to like climbing and get to experience the flow of movement on routes that aren’t at your limit.."
