10 Straight Crimps

I bought these for a very slightly overhanging wall.  I love the straight edge crimps.  Nice addition to add some variation to my wall. The texture of the Atomik holds is always amazing.  The fact that I LOVE crimps helps too!  These are great!

I bought several sets of these crimps to form the basic foundation of my 50º wall. The hold set itself offers a solid range of depth and in-cut allowing them to be used effectively rotated at any angle, not just down-pulling which can often be the case with a lot of crimps, especially at steeper angles.

Problems can can be set anywhere from v5 to v9 depending on the rotation, placement, and foothold used. This is really valuable for easing into steep boulders around the v8+ range as it can shift difficulty away from *just* pure finger strength to other areas like core, contact strength, and shoulder engagement. Don't get me wrong these holds will require foundational finger strength at 45º-55º, but allowing for you to build boulders with the goal of targeting and working on other weaknesses you may have.

Should be a staple of any good home wall. Good variety of degree of incuts leads to great versatility. Good incuts for about 30-45 degree walls. Useful as a side pull or gaston too. I like the texture overall, but the nature of the sharp-ish edge might dig into your skin, though I personally haven't had issues with it.

Everyone needs a good crimp set and these get the job done. Easy enough to do verts but difficult enough that your hands know that you've done them.

This is an awesome set of crimps. Great incut, not too sharp, and feels comfy on my 30 deg wall. I can get 1/2 to 3/4 of a pad on each crimp. I can definitely throw for and pull on these with confidence. A must for any home wall.

These are positive crimps with straight sharp edges. I like the ergonomics of the oval crimps more but if you are trying to set a simulation of your project that has straight incuts then this set will do the trick. If you’re looking for a first set of crimps start with the ovals.

These are nice, simple holds.  Can be used as straightforward crimps or even side pulls or small mantles if placed correctly.

These would fit in a v4/5 on a vert wall, and likely a v7+ on my 45° wall. the size and incut varies slightly between holds offering a nice variety.

These are a great positive crimp that I can really rally on, on my 45. Most of these crimps have a great incut edge that is skin friendly.

Awesome, versatile crimps. I climb V4 on the moonboard/outside, V5-6 indoors. These are tough but usable on my 40. 1/2-3/4 pad for me, 4 fingers. What makes them versatile is the incut varies. Some are very hard, some are tough, and some are okay. None are easy enough (for me) to do a power endurance circuit on my 40 wall. Great texture.

These are a great set of crimps for an overhang. the incuts vary and allow you to adjust the difficulty of the climbs you set. I put them on my 30 degree wall and I like setting bigger moves with the better ones. They also have a great texture and are a great price.

Excellent set to start with if you’re newer to climbing. I can fit between half a pad and almost a full pad on these, and they’re wide enough for 3-4 fingers. On vertical, I don’t feel like I’m going to fall off them but I still have to work to stay on. The texture is a tiny bit rough to start out, as other reviews have said.

These are my favorite crimps on my Moon spec woody. They feel tough enough (I'm a v4/5 climber) but not impossible like some other crimps I own. No issue with skin like some other reviewers. If you're thinking about buying these - do it!

Good range of incut with some feeling a little too incut for my tastes (45 degree wall). The edge can feel a bit sharp, but these simple crimps are a deal and add great variety. If you like to crimp on 1/2 to 3/4 pad holds, these are a sure thing.

These are awesome, simple, straight crimps. They looked fairly uniform when I ordered them, but I was pleasantly surprised with the variety of incut. Some feel very easy, and some are quite challenging to hold on my 30 degree wall. The texture is great as well, with good friction that isn't too uncomfortable.

We have them on a 30* wall and they're pretty positive, some are even still incut. We could easily set V3, but to get harder out of them, we usually set them as underclings or side pulls with big moves in between. Their sharp edges can be hard on the skin when used dynamically.

lots of great texture, can be rough on the skin. perfect crimps with lots of variation between crimps to provide varied setting. l put them on a 35  degree overhang and work power endurance. great, but rough on the skin for a circuit. good value

On a 45 degree wall, some are incut enough to feel good and others will make you feel like you're about to pop off any second. Really good mix for setting different grades and movements. For walls that are not as overhung, expect these to feel solid yet demanding.

When you need a set of basic, straight cut crimps, with single pad purchase, this set's value is hard to beat.  Engineered closer to vertical climbing than steeper climbing.  On vert, expect 5.10c+.  On 30 degree wall, expect 5.11+/5.12-.  Goes great with small feet.
