Fingerboarding: Back Three?
August 27, 2014, 01:19:38 pm
I've started doing a bit of systematic finger boarding for the autumn season, and I've noticed that I'm weaker on Back Three than I am on Middle Two. I suspect it's because I have rather short little fingers and have to adopt a contorted wrist angle to get them on the hold.

Worth worrying about / focusing on? The Beastmaker boys seem to think it's a grip that one should train.

Actually quite useful in the FraJu (is that where you're based/climb?) as some asymmetrical 3 finger pockets are much more comfortable back three than front 3.
