Coach Matt Pincus came on the show to talk about something he knows a LOT about: board climbing! It’s a popular topic and he gets a lot of questions from his clients about which board to use, how to use it, and for what, so we’re going to cover a bunch of info about it today. Matt is one of our coaches here at TrainingBeta and he uses boards in his own training and in his clients’ training (and just for fun and performance purposes).
Details
- Most common questions he gets from clients about boards
- Who should NOT use boards, if anyone

- Common pitfalls with board climbing
- What to use the boards for
- What grades Matt sends on boards vs. outdoors
- How to not get wrapped up in board grades
