XChalk
Review by: leapinlizard, 2008-03-24
Awesome product, although it is more expensive I feel it is worth the xtra money. It does everything it says it does, plus it makes my gear bag smell good.

I didnt notice much difference between x-chalk and metolius chalk. this chalk is very fine and caused me to have allergy problems either from the fine-ness of it or from ingredients. the smell of this chalk is quite strong and caused complaints from fellow gym climbers. Also the fine chalk made it through the inner layer of my chalk bag and took a long time to dissapate

Ok never buy Metolius chalk again. This stuff not only dries your hands when climbing but soothes them as well. Dont ask me how. And there is a refreshing and yet wierdly calming scent as well....I was on a long route one day feeling kinda sketchy, dipped into my chalk back and as I blew off the excess I felt calm and collected. The route was my second onsight! The stuff is from the climbing gods!

Wow, I was amazed by this chalk. I really thought it was going to be something awesome and I was sorely let down. The stuff smells nice, but now my gear smells like it, my car smells like it (thanks to a clumsy friend) and the smell is really starting to get to me. Oh and by the way. It did make my hands feel cooler, but dont try and use this stuff on anything remotely polished or smooth. I think it actually made smooth stuff worse. If you never come across anything smooth then cool, but otherwise dont waste your money.

I use this x-chalk exclusively now. I first tried it with gblauer and now I am HOOKED! I could stop using it any time(If I really wanted to). It's not a problem for me,seriously!
This chalk not only smells great,it seems to distract me from the concerns of climbing. A good "sniff" and I am in my zone. Kudo's to the Zen Lizard!
