The good climbers go so fast! Or alternatively, use such impossibly tiny holds. It is hard to see and understand the detail of what they are doing.

It's like learning a new language. If you listen to native speakers and you only know 3 words, it sounds fast and blurs together. However, once you understand the basic structure and have some more knowledge of vocabulary, you start to understand more and more.

Here is an elite climber, Lynn Hill, moving fairly slowly. It's a pro-tip video but I think what she has to say is good for anyone at any level of climbing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CrXu67X0EY
