Why don't fingerboards ever really have pinch grips?
I think you just end up compressing. I'm not amazing at pinches but can sometimes hang joists in a garage for example primarily through compression.

I did wonder about this as there are two screw ''heads'' embedded along the line on which you should place your tips to pinch. Seems possible to milk these to get some extra grip.
pick a way to hold it, and gradually ass weight on that method!
Nice tale. Liam seems to have missed my point that by holding pinches perpendicular to the shoulders eliminates any compression. Or have your hands closer together. If they’re too easy still I’m sure adding some weight (or some grease on your fingers) would make them trickier (Anecdotally on my board pinch problems are ones where I fail the most rapidly - as in performance goes off a cliff)
