XXL Granite Pinch

Noah Kranz

Fun feature hold

Great feature hold with a lot of options from wide to narrow. Pretty deep pinch options. Works well for heel and toe hooks too!!

Love the Texture

Really love the texture on this one. Have set it as a final pinch at a slant toward the top of my 40 degree wall. Lots of grip options. This is really a stellar hold on any wall.

My Favorite XXL From Atomik!

Really fun hold with so many options that it is my new favorite of the larger holds I've gotten from Atomik. I put it on a 40 degree and turned it with the more positive side facing down so its a little tougher. It's really fun to try to reach for this one and have to inch up it from below.

Jim Agostino

Almost too fun

I love everything about this hold. It's super versatile and for a XXL hold it doesn't take up too much real estate on the woody.

I'm constantly having new ideas on how to use it.  It's great as a ledge for sit starts, Dynos, heel and toe hooks. Obviously awesome for various pinch grips.

Fully horizontal the rounded side becomes a vicious sloper. I also have two right next to each other which mimics a full fist crack. A must buy

Pinch or Rail—You Decide

Big, fun hold that can be mounted vertically or horizontally. We mounted it horizontally on our 15 degree wall and it feels like those ledges you dream about when you're climbing something hard outside.

This Pinch is Perfect

I can't express how much I love this thing. It is way more comfortable than it looks and has multiple sweet spots. Currently have this on my new 45° wall and it is good enough for v1+ climbers to use with relative ease. Great hold and looks great up there!

Nick Blankenberger

A great pinch workout!

I most often use this hold on slightly overhung walls to maximize pinch strength training. The texture is quite positive and one side is slightly inset giving you options on adjusting difficulty based on orientation. The hold is long enough to match and switch hands if the route dictates, heel hooks are a blast on this one as well. Highly recommend a pair of these for your home wall!

Joseph Armas

Great training tool

This hold has a unique shape and texture to it. Truly feels like a real granite rail or pinch. Versatile as a start, mid route, or finish hold. I've set two of these on a 20deg wall and they work great for beginners or more advanced climbers. Slant the pinch and practice hand flips. The only drawback is the lack of a bolt or screw on the wide end. If set horizontally this hold can flex a little but still feels solid enough to stand or mantle on. Texture is as close to real granite as you can get with a poly hold.

Great two hand hold for the price

I just put this up on a 30 deg overhang.  I'm playing around with it in the horizontal position.  It makes a great match for going up or traversing.  It has one side that is super positive, and one side that is more pinch like.  Holds this size are much more expensive in other companies, I love the value.

Brandon Pecoraro

my favorite hold from atomik

I love this hold!  I have it on my 45 degree homewall.  One side is more positive than the other, and it is definitely big enough for two hands or a hand-foot match.  It's great for setting up into a big move into the roof section of my homewall.

James Marshall

Great value for money

Can't get much better in terms of price. I have this on my Moon spec woody, and it can be set in a variety of ways. Could be a little lower profile as you can seriously pinch it, but it's a great addition for any home wall. Would buy again.

Quality, versatile hold

I have used this hold as a pinch on 25 and 45 degree walls, and am very impressed with its quality and versatility. The texture is unique, and the hold can be rotated to be suitable for both easy and difficult routes. Rotated horizontally, it also makes a nice grippy edge, which I am hoping to use for dynos in the future.

alan dickinson

great hold

(set this on ~37 degree home wall)

I have this thing set just off vertical, tapered side down, right in the middle of my wall. So far some of my favorite problems use it. One side has a bit of an incut edge, and the other has little positive scoops. Both edges can be pretty sharp feeling until you learn where and how to hold it, but I've never had too much of an issue.

Isaac Green

very positive

a favorite of new climbers at my wall, extremely comfy while also feeling 'like rock' in terms of shape. as a vertical pinch it can make some harder problems but on a side as a ledge it makes for a bomber rest or as part of easier warm up circuits. 20 degree overhang is still extremely positive. It would go on a much steeper wall no issue.

Joseph Legotte

Versatile Shape

Great vertically added a pinch, or horizontally as a rail/sloper based on your wall angle. We have one on our 45 and one on our 60. They shine best set diagonally, having problems that move through it requiring matching and flipping on it for the hands, and it also has great locker heel hook options as well. Texture is nice to get some rock like feel on the home wall.

Derek Redmond

Amazing Hold for the Cost

Purchased two of these.  Absolutely love them.  One i use on the roof as a very difficult pinch.   Texture creates a large amount of grip.   Great hold and size for the cost.

Lexi A

in love

This hold is huge and both sides are different!! One side is a little more incut and jug like, the other side is less incut and more smooth. I haven't set this yet but it looks dope in the dark grey color on my light grey wall! Got this for a 30 degree wall.

Noah Sahady

One of my favorites

I use this on my 40 degree wall and love it - the tapered width is really nice to dial in the sweet spot for different climbs. There are a few small, positive bumps along the edge that you'll find yourself wanting to cling to every time.

Benjamin Carney

Great Bang for the Buck

This thing is super cheap for such a big hold. Great design, very versatile, but it's quite sharp (just like real granite) so avoid this pinch/rail if that's a concern for you.

Grahm Hornsby

A crowd favorite!

I have this hold at my local gym and everyone loves it, so I had to buy it for my home wall. This hold is very affordable for its size and fits two hands with room to spare. One side is more incut but they both are good. I plan to set this vertically in order to create a challenging traverse move on a 15’ wall.

Jesse Wall

Love this hold, huge tapered pinch with shelf qualities

We have several of these and use them for every kind of setting you can think of from bat hangs to toe/heel hooks, to lie backs. They are a nice texture but have the ability to shred skin if people aren't ready for them. We set them vertically on 45 degree overhanging with taper down for really hard stuff, the top edge has a great sloper as well. Great stacking ability, we have created nice cracks with them.

Ryan Taylor

Good feel and lots of options

I have this hold halfway up my 45 wall and it works as a comfortable pinch, an interesting foot hold, or good side pull. The granite texture and the asymmetry give it lots of options. Im buying a second one.

Russ Renzas

Another excellent rail from Atomik

This is about the perfect size for a home wall - it's big enough to feel like you could mantle off it with the right placement, small enough that you can get a good pinch (and the pinch feels different depending on orientation), and it has enough texture where it feels like a natural rock ledge when it's horizontal. Currently considering whether to get a second one because we like it so much.

Adam Vallaster

fun hold for all sizes

This hold is a good addition to our home climbing wall. It's great pinch that tapers, the length makes it great for 2 handed pinching,  has a narrow end that smaller hands can pinch, and a fatter end for larger hands/fatter pinch. Lots of options with this - use it as a pinch, turn it and use as a rail, and the fatter end has kind of a slope to it( my son wants to try that ) The texture of the hold is real grippy, you can get a good hold of it with or without chalk.

Paul Vervalin

Merry Christmas to me

My son got me this hold for Christmas.  I have it on about a 20 degree overhang and holding onto this thing is no problem.  It could easily go on a 45 degree wall for more advanced climbers.  Once you get a grip on this, you ain't slipping off.  The granite texture feels very "rock-like" - I think that's the goal.  The designer got it right.  This thing is called a pinch but it is also rail IMO.  Mounted horizontally, you could hang off this thing all day long.  You can also change the difficulty significantly by just flipping this thing vertically because of the taper.  It's harder with the narrow end at the bottom (obviously).  Anyway, I love this thing and will probably buy a couple more.  Thanks Atomik!!

Kate Worster

Super fun

This pinch is a super fun addition to my home wall. One edge is more positive than the other so there are tons of grip options. Fun hold and looks cool too!

Dan Duncan

2 hand pinch

I have this xxl pinch at the top of my 45 degree wall. It's a great finish hold, but will be moving it mid problem to get more versatility out of it. It is a positive hold and has some sweet spots.
