Happy New Years!

Everyone at Edgeworks wants to wish you the best for the upcoming year. But more importantly, we want to thank you for the last one.

The best part about Edgeworks is you. We love coming to work and supporting your climbing addiction. Thank you for leting us be involved in your climbing escapades - indoor or outdoor.

These indoor and outdoor adventures are the icons of another great year. Now, to celebrate 2011 - and to get pumped about 2012 - we want you to submit your best photos of 2011 for our EDGEWORKS WORLD Facebook photo album.

Email your greatest shots to climb@edgeworksclimbing.com. We'll put 'em up and randomly select one to win a Kleen Kanteen, an Edgeworks sticker, and some FREE day passes!

We're all excited for the upcoming weeks, months, and year. After all, we're committed to make this another Year of Crushing.

Crushing Tip
  C'MON CRUSH THIS!  
 

We like to think of our routes as ways to teach good climbing movement. Getting to the top of a route means that you've started to learn the lessons of a specific route. "But just like good movies deserve repeat viewings and good restaurants deserve repeat visits, good routes deserve repeat ascents." Explains Jon Manz.

Trying to climb routes faster, smoother, quieter, or with a different sequence are all great ways to learn something new from a route you've already “finished”. Alex Huber once said you haven't really mastered a route until you can climb it both up and down. He just might be onto something.

What to do? This month find a handful of routes near your climbing level and... CLIMB. Put up a few ascents on each until, "you can climb it both up and down."
