Overview
Reviews

With 1" of incut on these edges, they perform well on vertical through steep terrain. The incuts range from 30 to 45-degrees. To explain 45-degrees, if you put a 45-degree incut hold on a 45-degree wall, the incut is now horizontal to the ground. It becomes a crimp. The incut is smooth yet has some undulation, which gives an organic feel to them.

All five holds make for an excellent set to put on vertical walls for beginners to get the feel of crimping. As you build confidence in them, move them into steeper terrain. The holds will yield V1 on vertical walls and V4 on a 45-degree wall.

Set #1 is the most positive out of the three sets. For more challenging versions, check out Set #2 and Set #3.

The largest hold measures 4" wide x 2-1/2" tall x 1-1/4" off the wall.
The smallest hold measures 3-5/8" wide x 2" tall x 7/8" off the wall.
Patina design on the face, organic and smooth incut.
V1 on vertical walls.
V4 on 45-degree walls.
Texture: The texture offers a grip that is skin-friendly and feels like natural rock.

good stuff

These holds are comfy, colorful and durable. I like em!
They are on my home wall-slightly overhanging to 45.
Will try them on the steep stuff next.

Handy range of depths

We have these on our wall right now. The incuts range from very shallow to a bit less than a shallow mini-jug. I like them because most of our climbers are not quite ready for real crimpers and edges, but this progression-oriented set lets them build comfort and improve. I think the hardest holds are on the order of V3 (at 15 degrees) while the easiest are V1-ish at that angle. Climbers in the V4+ range could use these in place of mini-jugs on their problems to make the rest holds trickier or on a higher angle wall for more challenge.

Nice edges

Nice little holds and can't beat the price for them. Great for a vertical wall, I can almost use them on my 30 degree wall but I am a new climber and not that strong yet. Nice variety of different edges. Some are incut a little. Great holds.

nice!

I'm an intermediate climber (barely) and have these on a 30 degree wall. The bigger ones are definitely usable for me, feel like V3 maybe, but the 2 smaller edges I'm using as footholds for now. I got these in fluorescent and they're so cute.

Great Edge

I use these on my volumes on my vertical wall. These are great holds. Some are more uncut than others.

Amazing holds!!

These were the first holds I put on my home wall which has a slab, a flat wall with a roof section, a 20 degree angle, and a adjustable wall. I put them on the 20 degree angle and they made a great crimpy, challenging route! The texture is great and I love climbing on these holds!

Solid Stuff

These holds are comfy, have a range of depth, and at a price which can't be beat. Colors are bright and vibrant which was a nice change from just wood holds on my home wall. Good challenge on overhanging walls but may be a bit challenging for new climbers.

Nice edges!

These hold offer a variety of widths, depths, and angles. Work great for vertical and semi-steep terrain. most are fairly difficult at 40*.

Juicy on a flat wall

Almost too easy for my flat wall...using these to set routes for my 5.7 and 5.8 friends. Would be excellent on 20 degrees and more.

Good Variety

We have a 40 degree wall and the 5 edges really hit the range. The largest is pretty easy to hold and makes good side pulls and the smallest is pretty hard to hold. All in all a great add and bang for the buck!

Great Holds

For a pack of 5 there's a good variety in the hold difficulty (ranging from pretty in-cut to pretty shallow). They're comfortable to grip and not sharp. Great price for what you get, too!

A must have for kids

These holds make great jugs for small hands. They are smaller than lot of jugs out there lending for slight difficulty yet are not too tough for kiddos. I use these all the time for my kids problems. They also make for great foot holds on easier overhung problems with their positive lip.

Huge steep wall feet

I bought these as a compliment to the patina set as big footholds. They more than serve this purpose at a tremendous price!

Great Holds for small hands!

These holds are great for my son (6 year old). They are easy enough for him to use easily on a vertical wall. He's asking for more of these!

nice edge with the perfect texture

Just installed these on my 20 degree wall and I would say they are about a v3 to v4 feeling. If these were on a vertical wall expect a v1 set-up. They have a comfortable texture that feels great when you are climbing on these.

High Quality / good texture

I ordered these holds to go on my 1st at home bouldering wall (COVID Project). They we part of a large order that I put together at Atomik holds. I have been very satisfied with this order. The holds have been strong and steady. The texture has held up well so far (other brands have lost texture very quickly compared to these).

Super smooth and fun holds!

Cheapest set I could find on the website and they are some of our favorites! We put them on a 60 Degree training wall and they are great! Very challenging at this degree and on our 90 degree kids wall they are just easy and fun and they aren't kidding when they say skin friendly! We absolutely recommend this set!

Good range of edges

These holds have a nice texture. Some of them have a slight incut, 1 with a completely flat edge, and 1 that is more like a pinch. Good range of colors. These add some good variety of challenge to my 30 degree overhang wall.

Very classic hold

These edges are the perfect size. On more vertical walls they are great for open hand crimping. On steeper overhangs these holds are big enough for putting your thumb on also and really cranking on them. They are a really good value for the price too.

great for a 45 woody

I have this at home as my cool down holds when i had a session of gnarly crimp grabbing.
