Detailed Product Description
2009. 254 pp, hundreds of b/w photos. New paperback.

Sport climbing can be the best way to unwind after work, or an excuse for a road trip with your buddies, or a month-long personal challenge to repoint a difficult route. For many climbers, it's a bit of each. Whatever your motivation or skill level, you'll benefit from the tips and technqiues included in Sport Climbing, From Top Ropes ro Redpoint, Technqiues for Climbing Success.
 
* Sport climbers are the largest climbing demographic
* Foreword by Chris Sharma, the best known American sport climber

Sport climbers often project a route that tests their physical limits in hopes of an eventual completion, regardless of the number of attempts. Succeeding requires a solid understanding of belaying and other climbing techniques that are used in various climbing disciplines, but are detailed here specifically for sport climbing.

Targeting varying abilities, Sport Climbing teaches climbers how to rehearse moves and train for routes, how to get through the pump, how to fight until the end of a pitch, how to stay composed when tired, and how to best use their bodies to climb efficiently and expertly.
 
Whether inspiring new climbers to learn the nuances of scaling vertical terrain, or delving into a deeper, more conceptual understanding of how to go about projecting a route, Andrew Bisharat brings confidence and a level of practicality to the sport. He demonstrates how skills specific to redpointing transfer over to traditional climbing, making this a must-have book for any climber. Featuring tips from famous climbers such as Tommy Caldwell and Alex Honnold, the author brings a modern voice to a fun and exciting sport.
