> 3 dayBefore using this hang board, I was only familiar with the boards from Metolius. I like this one a lot, though, mainly because of the split design. This means that I was able to mount it a bit wider than the average hang board -- this works for my shoulder width really well. One thing I did this time when mounting this board was install a pulley system for offsetting my weight. This is awesome and highly recommended, as its a nice way to push yourself a bit more during a workout. Even taking 10 lbs off makes a big difference. If youre wondering about the details of my pulley system, feel free to post a comment and Ill respond. One more note: Ive only used large deck screws when mounting hang boards. My thinking here is better safe than sorry -- and Ive never had one come loose.

> 3 dayIt is very easy to setup and I like that you can adjust the width and angle of the individual holds. I have owned a few other finger boards, and I like this one because you can adjust the width to fit your shoulder breadth, and because the crimping rails vary with depth as you move horizontally on them, which allows for a wider variety of hangs. Love the pinches. They absolutely kill my forearms. Overall, a great addition to my training.

> 3 dayThis thing is incredible. Its WAY more comfortable to use than other boards, even on the really difficult holds. The 2 piece setup is really nice, too.

Greater than one weekThis is rated as the best by outdoor gear labs and either the best or right up there by other publications. The only knock it gets is for slopers and that its hard to put up. To me if you cant install this thing safely then you probably shouldnt be installing anything. Get a 3/4 plywood board that fits your space. Put the holds on the board where you want them. Drill the whole mess into the studs. As a bonus, theres room on my board (maybe yours too) to put a couple of other jugs up there or something of the sort. All in, its great. I can only use a couple of the positions right now so Ill be working with this probably forever.

> 3 dayThis is the best hangboard available in the US for 5.11/5.12 level climbers, period. Ive been using it regularly for over 4 years and am disappointed whenever I dont have access to one.

> 3 dayReally great hangboard, the screws were a bit irritating to figure out as it uses two different length screws. But other than that its a perfect board and kicks your butt.

We flat out love this sport, lifestyle, adventure, and everything else it can be. Gym, sport, trad, ice, bouldering, big walls, alpine--we respect and pursue it all. In busy seasons, some staff may well be relegated to 6am sessions before long days in the office, but there’s always a willing partner. We believe in the power of climbing as a catalyst for positive change and growth. |
We jump at opportunities to put resources into service projects like trail days, crag restoration projects, and hardware maintenance. Lander, the Red River Gorge, Eldorado Canyon, and Clear Creek Canyon are just a handful of the places we’ve been able to impact. We leverage partnerships with national and regional organizations to identify needs, develop action plans, and follow through. |
Our team athletes know we care less about their climbing performance than their character performance, how they share what gets them psyched. For the Andersons, it’s about educating others on all things training. For Erica, it’s showing other families the beta for living a full and adventurous life. For Alex, it"s taking years of hard-won experience and passing it onto the next generation of crushers. We promote those who promote positivity, growth, and integrity. |
