Crimps Set #1 delivers in a wide way! Most of our crimps found in the Atomik line have room for four fingers for the average hand; however, we have gone big with Set #1 and Set #2. Every one of the crimps has room for all of your fingers, your thumb, and then there is room left over. These are the kind of crimps that are relatively easy to match on.

Set #1 is the most incut of the two sets. The incuts have been planned for 45-degree walls but they work on all angles of walls.

On a vertical wall, they are great for beginners. You will get a V1 crimp that is very incut. Most children can grab on to them.

On a 20-degree wall, they come in at V2. The average hold will have a very steep incut which means this is the kind of hold that you can run circuits on. The texture is amazing for skin-friendliness.

On a 45-degree wall, the party just got started. The incuts range from neutral to 15-degrees incut when set on a 45-degree wall. There is also a depth difference on the incuts from 1/2" to 1" which gives you even more variety between the shapes. The easiest you will get out of them is V4.

To describe the shape, the oval design adds extra width for your hand, plus follows the natural angle of your hand when crimping.

SIZE: The smallest hold measures 3-1/2" wide x 2-1/8" tall x 3/4" standing off the wall.
SIZE: The largest hold measures 4-1/2" wide x 2-5/8" tall x 1-1/8" standing off the wall.
V1 on vertical walls.
V2 on 20-degree walls.
V4+ on 45-degree walls.
TEXTURE: The texture is silky, grippy, and skin-friendly that feels like natural rock.

Super Comfy

Super comfy and requires a lot of work to hold on a steep wall. This is exactly what I needed for hard limit problems on my 45 deg wall. Good value too.

If I only had to choose one set it would be these

I just can't even describe how much fun and complexity I could create on my home wall with these.

All the Atomik Holds so far are incredible but if I had to choose only one set the Oval Crimps would be it. I really appreciated the screw on feature because the diversity in the problems I set increased exponentially-- considering there is only so much space on a 12x10 wall I couldn't be happier.

At a 45 degree wall these things clocked in around V4 - V6 range depending on the style and spacing of the holds.

Awesome screw on set!

I've got both set's #1 and #2 on my 45-degree wall and they feel great!! Set #1 feels about V4 to me. They are more positive with a good bottom edge for a thumb catch. One of the holds in set #1 is big enough to match on which is nice as well. Set #2 is substantially more difficult coming in around V7+ to me but not quite V8 (again this is on a 45 degree wall). Less thumb catch and less positive, but nice that 3 of these holds are big enough for matching on! Texture is good as always, and the screws are sunk more than enough. Over all an awesome screw-on set that helped me fill the gaps in my home wall!
