Overview
Basic, shaped slopers with a variety of angles of slope. The beginner climber (V3-) will be challenged on these holds on vertical. If you can’t grab and move off them, it’s not because of the texture; they’re grippy—good, simple, hard open-handed training.
For climbers sending V4+, the choice comes down to the wall's angle or the volume you can put them on. What we mean is that if you place a volume on a 45-degree wall, creating a vertical plane, that works.
On our 25-degree wall, they can feel V4+ to hold onto and move off. On our 45-degree wall, there were a couple we could move off of in the V9+ range, but the majority of the holds were set on volumes. We used our Multi-Angle Volumes to rotate and identify the wall angle best suited to each sloper.
For such small holds, it's true, there is no hiding or cheating on them. Very challenging to match on. However, in terms of cost-effectiveness, the variety in this set is wide and the holds that may challenge you beyond your current strength, you can always use them as intermediates or as big feet. We have them on our spray wall.
- V2 on vertical walls
- V4+ on 25-degree walls
- Dang son, those slopey V10+ on a 45-degree wall
- Small footprint, low profile, makes these genius for volumes and top out boulders
- Great tennis-shoe-friendly footholds or walls that require no shoes
