Overview
Reviews

The main difference between Set #3 and Set #2 is that Set #3 is lower profiled. The bottom line is that there is less edge to grab.

This style of climbing hold gives you a taste of what it feels like to be climbing outside. These grips mimic the ridges and angles found on natural granite. This design style prepares you for outdoor climbing or in that they offer you a realistic experience inside.

Set #3 has crimps on multiple edges of the holds. Four of the holds offer this. These additional locations provide you with more variety in route setting options. The various areas also allow you to turn several of these grips into shallow pinches and crimps with thumb catches.

These are advanced-level climbing holds as they stand off the wall 1/2" to 3/4".

You can expect V2+ feeling crimps on a vertical wall, V4 on a 25-degree wall, and V6/10 on a 45-degree wall.

Hard Comfortable Crimping

Depending on feet these holds can go from v6/8 to v10+ on a 50° wall. The holds have a great texture, but based on how they were shaped(more edge than incut) the hard crimping isn’t painful. These holds don’t “bite” allowing you to hang by your finger-pulp, and instead require and boost finger, and contact strength through climbing and utilization. They force you to maintain tension when climbing, especially when on steeper home walls like mine.

Small but comfortable crimps

Of the three sets of screw on crimps this set would be the most friendly on less steep terrain. I have them on a 45 degree wall and can easily set v6+ with them. Depending on feet you can easily go harder than v6, bad feet on a steep wall and things get hard fast. The holds in this set seem a bit less incut than the other two granite crimp screw on sets. Contact strength and friction are the focus with these. The texture is helpful, a comfortable granite that has a lot of friction but since they are not super incut they are not sharp.
