Video: John “Verm” Sherman’s Tips From the Updated Better Bouldering Book

John “Verm” Sherman invented the V grades in rock climbing, mastered 20,000 bouldering problems over 37 years, and wrote the book on bouldering. Here he talks about the updated Better Bouldering, now in its second editions.

And if you are going to Outdoor Retailer in Salt Lake City this weekend, he will even sign a copy for you at the Falcon Books booth from 4 to 6 p.m. on the 20th. And let you cut in line at the keg.

Read our interview with him on climbing the Strike in the Needles of South Dakota.
