Crushing Tip
  C'MON CRUSH THIS!  
 

For new and experienced climbers alike, a quick reminder to focus on precise footwork is always worthwhile tip. "Focus on watching your foot all the way to the hold," explains Jon Manz. "A lot of people see a hold and before they've placed their feet, they're already looking at the next move." Is that you?

Watch your foot on each and every hold! That means more than seeing it. Follow your foot to the best position on the hold and watch until you're applying pressure. That, ladies and gents, is precise footwork. Go to it!
