Show Notes

Granite has shaped climbing history — from Yosemite to crags around the world. In this episode, we’re joined by coach Kris Hampton of the Power Company Podcast to unpack why granite feels so damn hard, how to get better at it, and what makes it such a cornerstone of climbing.

The bar doesn’t fit a regular carabiner but I like the way it rolls better than the d ring version.   Karlos Nasar video - training session overview:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZsq1rlBsmQ
