Overview
Reviews

This banana climbing hold is easy to grab, making it an excellent choice for your youngster. There is plenty of space where you can grip with both hands at the same time. You can also get some very interesting pinches on the slopey side.

On a vertical wall, you can expect V0, which is easy.

For the older climber, you'll find you can set this product on many angles. Up to 3-degrees overhanging, it remains a jug. From vertical to steep, you can expect a V0 to V4 feeling hold. It is incut enough to get some purchase on it in a roof.

SIZE: Measures 8-1/4" wide x 3-1/2" tall x 2-1/2" standing off the wall.

The incut is a jug on walls up to 30 degrees overhanging.

So fun!

Like most of the novelty holds, this hold is entirely different based on how you spin the hold, great jug right side up easily turns to finger confusion sloper upside down. It works great as a pinch too. I've had this hold on my 40 and roof section. It goes from anything from v0-v4 hold. Super fun!

Finisher

This is an excellent hold with many possibilities. We currently have it hanging down at the end of the of our route were you swing from the monkey banana bombs. So the kids want to swing and monkey around over and over. Originally had it on a vertical wall upside down as a Sloper with finger catches but the finishing jug at the end is an awesome prize for the little monkeys.

Monkey Grab

It's a substantial hold, lots of different options, super cute. It's fun to orient it vertically upside down for goofy single-pad crimps. Yellow or green is mandatory (or red if you're a Mitch Hedberg fan).

Rotates for lots of different feels

The way the bananas bunch makes for a bunch of different options in terms of how the hold functions. I think it's maybe best upside down or as a big pinch, but I think it could even work as a roof jug in the right orientation. It also looks like a bunch of bananas on the wall, which is a fun visual departure obviously.

Super fun jug with a blocky feel!

I made an “overhang” roof in my basement by attaching holds vertically to the ceiling rafters. I placed these as the finishing move. Having ordered them in fluorescent colors, my kids call them the electric bananas and they make up the finishing move for their overhang route. The inside of the jug has blocky edges which makes it more challenging than smooth jugs. I like the idea in the review below to turn upside down to create a fun sloper!

Fun Bunch of Bananas

This hold looked super fun, so I decided to order it. It is a great two hand hold. My 60 year old mom came by and said "oh I really like the bananas". Definitely adds some character to any wall.

Super fun

Who doesn’t want to climb to the bananas. Looks great on the wall, definitely a favorite. Lots of options for grip depending on rotation. But overall fun for any age to go ape over!
