Bouldering: crash mat tip
Crash mats can sometimes pose a dilemma. While they provide a much safer landing than the naked ground, on occasion they can actually mask some ankle-twisting nasties such as rocks, ditches or tree roots. It's your call what the best course of action is - your options are either to leave the obstacle visible and hope to avoid it or you can draw the outline of the anklebreaker on your crash mat, a simple X. If you're feeling creative a skull and crossbones should do the trick.
