" Hello! This is Dan from Eastern Mountain Sports on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip I’m going to be discussing the importance of knowing your rock climbing root, knowing the different sections of the root that you’re climbing is very important so that you can build a mental map of what you’ll be doing during the climb. A lot of times it’s a lot harder to focus on what your next move is going to be when you’re on the rock, when you’re tired after you had a lot fatigue so knowing the different sections of the root before climbing is very important. In a climbing community getting knowledge from previous climbers is known as beta. It’s always a really good idea to talk to people who have climbed the root that you’re on and get some of the beta from them. They’re going to be able to tell you what sections were difficult, another climbing term is the hardest part of a root is called a crux so it’s definitely very keyed in trying to learn where that crux is so that you know you know this is the hardest part and you know if I get past this crux then I’m goaled and then I’ll be able to climb all the way to the top of this root. So it’s very important to just get a lot of knowledge about the root prior to climbing so that you can make it a little bit easier on yourself during your climb."
