5 Large Limestone Slopers (Sets 1 through 3)

Overview

Below is a video comparing all three sizes of mini, medium, and large limestone slopers:

The limestone texture of these climbing holds has a significant influence on how you grip them. The intricate details on the landing areas and various realistic-feeling thumb catches provide just enough purchase to help you maintain your grip on these very slopey sets. Like climbing on natural rock, the challenge is to explore what feels most comfortable. 

Sold in packs of five, these slopers are perfect for all climbers looking to create challenging boulder problems and routes. 

Set #1 ranges from 5 to 10 degrees of sloping. We discovered that climbing on Set #1 allowed us to create bigger moves than the other sets and utilize the holds in various orientations, such as an undercling.

Set #2 ranges from 10 to 30 degrees sloping. This set strikes a good balance between the three, allowing for both very challenging moves and easier ones.

Set #3 ranges from 25 to 35 degrees. The holds are brutally hard and can be used to set limit moves on boulder problems. We found that even with slight variations in moves, they remained difficult.

• SIZE: The average hold measures 5" wide x 4" tall x 2" off the wall.
• Set #1 on vertical walls feels 0, and on a 25-degree wall feels V4.
• Set #2 on vertical walls feels V2, and on a 25-degree wall feels V6.
• Set #3 on vertical walls feels V3, and on a 25-degree wall feels V8+. 
• Texture: Atomik 1.5 features a detailed, rock-like feel.
