Tension ClimbingFlash Board

The remarkable Flash Board is designed and made in the U.S.A. by our partner Tension Climbing.

The Flash Board was born out of necessity. When traveling, our training sessions either had to be canceled or were undermined by a lack of good warm-ups. We knew we needed a solution. The Flash Board’s compact design makes it light and easy to pack, adjustable and extremely resistant to rotation. Hang it from a pull-up bar, a sturdy tree, a bolt, or pull against the resistance of your own foot! This is one tool you don’t want to be without. Just don’t pack it in your carry-on luggage… the TSA doesn’t love the Flash Board as much as we do.

We have recently adjusted the edge profiles and added new 8mm and 10mm edges to make the Flash Board even more comfortable and versatile as a warm-up and portable training tool.

ANGLE TYPES

Our holds come in three different angles: sloped, vertical and incut. Sloped holds are the most advanced to climb on, as the 30° angle requires good finger strength and technique. Vertical holds offer a flat surface and are fairly easy to grip, which makes them very versatile in their use on the climbing wall. Incut holds have a 15° angle towards the wall,  offering a more stable grip and thus making them perfect for training on overhangs.

GRAY GRANITE / ROSE SANDSTONE

You can choose between two different stone types for your new holds / rails / hangboards. They either come in gray Finnish Granite or in the rose-colored Italian Sandstone. The granite has a naturally rough surface, which is easy to grip and will prepare your hands for outdoor bouldering in Southern Switzerland or Yosemite National Parc. The sandstone is a bit more smooth and great for training on less grippy surfaces like in Fontainebleau and the Red Rock Canyon.

RAW WOOD / SHIELDED WOOD

We offer all of our stone woodies in two different surface finishes. We can leave the wood raw, so it stays lighter in color and results in a very natural looking aesthetic and you can profit from the friction of the wood when climbing. Shielding the wood makes the wood richer in color and makes the surface water repellent and removes the friction of the wood. If you plan on washing your holds regularly, we recommend getting shielded climbing holds.

Wooden Sliders

Our sliders are designed as add-ons for our hangboards, allowing you to customize the ledge size for your training sessions by reducing its dimensions.

Each slider boasts a 6 mm (0.25") thickness and is equipped with a magnet on its back, enabling you to easily attach it to the hangboard. Additionally, you have the flexibility to stack two sliders on top of each other, effectively increasing the total thickness to 12 mm (0.5").

ENGRAVING OPTION

If you want to add a little extra personalization to your brush, we've got you covered! Add up to 25 characters and we will put our laser engraver to work. This is also a great opportunity to add contact details, like phone number, in case your favourite brush gets lost.

COLOR OPTION

To make your climb a bit more colourful, we add a color on our logo on the brushes. You get to choose which one. Can you find your favourite color?
