Power station
Review by: rudolphluciani, 2007-08-09
We've got this thing at my gym and it's alright. i like that the texture is pretty smooth and after a long bouldering session doesn't contribute to my shredded tips. I only really ever use the jugs on this bord to do pullups and lockoffs as we've got another board that's ancient and nameless with so many hold options that it boggles the mind so i use that for contact strength training.
Edit: I've recently started using the crimps for deadhang pyramids and enjoy them alot.

Got this for free from a visiting Metolious rep and truely, this thing is huge, HUGE! Maybe too huge... It has two handy pockets one on the side and the other on the bottom and a brush loop. IT seems more like a giant chalkbag than a bouldering pot, complete with a loop to clip onto your harness. The closure is a silly tentlike drawstring affair that falls down inside the bucket and has a tendancy to clog with chalk. It also blows right over in a strong wind and spills. It works, but i'm glad that i got it for free.

Great Shoes!
Review by: rudolphluciani, 2007-04-04
These are the best preforming, most comfortable, stickiest and all around most solid shoe i've ever worn. They've worked great for both bouldering and sport climbing both indoor and out. After nearly daily use for over three months the left toe rubber has developed a tiny hole, but for rubber so soft and sticky I'm amazed how long it has lasted under such rigerous use. For the price, this shoe is unbeatable.
