Climbing Holds, and the use of them.

There are a lot of climbing holds. There is eleven different ones that I am going to tell you about but there is many more. There is one called the Crimper and it is a way to grip a small hold with the thumb over the top of the fingertips which are pressing on the hold. They say the crimper is a big enough hole for only three or four fingers. There is also one called the edge and that is said to be just a little bit bigger than the crimper. Jib is another one and it is used for great foot holding. Jug is one that is a large hold that is easily gripped by the entire hand. Knob prutrudes like a door knob. Pincher is a thin hold that that is designed to "pinch". The pocket hold has a hole usually big enough for one or two fingers. Roof Jug is for holding upside down, Sidepull is similar to an under cling except to its side. Sloper's are size ranges from a few inches to a foot in length. An Undercling is a type of hold held from the bottom with the upward pull.
