How we use our feet in climbing is one of the very most important things we do in this sport. Whether you're a boulder, sport climber or trad climber, it has a HUGE impact on performance!! Whatever the angle or terrain or movement style, the ability to weight our feet effectively (i.e. transfer force through them) will make or break your success in climbing all the way from the first day of climbing to your fifth decade in the sport... it's a lifelong thing!

In this video, Tom takes you through the basic and beginner techniques for footwork. He's starts at the toes with how you use the "power point" of the foot, then moves to the middle of the foot (watch out!!) and finally goes to the knowledge on the allpowerful heel. There's a cool little trick in there on how you use the rubber design of the shoe as well....
