Abstract
The sport of rock climbing has undergone a significant change in recent times with technically harder climbs being attempted more often. This has meant that climbers have taken to more training including weight training, using artificial climbing walls and the more traditional bouldering i.e. training on natural outcrops and boulders. This increase in standards has led to injuries associated with more extreme use and training. This paper reports on a novel fingertip injury found in rock climbers. Verf.-Referat
