Status: All sales are final
The 12 Straight Mini Jugs give your child a full hand's worth of purchase, which feels more significant to their smaller hands. This size is perfect for toddlers to elementary-aged children on vertical walls.
Each jug is different regarding the incut and how positive it will feel. The incuts range from slightly incut to deeply incut, offering an excellent variety of grips.
The 12 Straight Mini Jugs feel different from the 12 Round Mini Jugs. The round version allows your index and pinky fingers to wrap around the hold, while the straight version forces them on the same plane. This feature makes the Straight version better suited for steep walls where you are hanging on the incut rather than the lip.
In steep 45-degree wall terrain, the holds become fingery, and they feel like crimpy edges. The easiest they will yield in steep terrain is around V3. An adult can get three fingers on most of them and even four on a few. Expect the depths of the incut to average one-and-a-half finger-pads deep.
The reviews will tell you that intermediate to advanced climbers use this set on their walls and like it. Also great as handholds for children.
