CRUSHING TIP #26: FOOTWORK - EDGING & SMEARING
Author: Matt Coleman

Crushing begins with footwork and it's important to consider how you use all that wonderful rubber on your climbing shoes. Most climbers really only edge in some form or another and this is useful on footholds that have some sort of positive edge for the shoe to grip. Smearing on the other hand is a different and often neglected technique.
