Let the beast building begin.

Written on Nov 22, 2020

Very pleased with my Metolius Wood Grips Deluxe II hang board. It mounts easily with 6 screws that come with the board. The wood is strong but soft - expect it will help save some skin. It has 4 different "levels" and several 4,3, and 2 finger options within each "level." I'm looking forward to a winter of pain so that I can slay come spring. Let the games begin!

Butora Altura

Written on Nov 11, 2020

I've been looking for a new all day comfort climbing shoe that also climbs well. Unfortunately, my feet are too big for the La Sportiva TC Pro and the Five Ten Grandstone. Thankfully, Butora makes some big sizes, and they also make 2 versions of this shoe - one wide (green) and one narrow (orange). I need a whopping 13.5 for my flippers. I tried the green version in my local shop. They felt OK, but I sensed some heel lift when I went up on my toes. No bueno. Campsaver came through with the narrow version in 13.5 and they fit great. I've only climbed with them 1 day so far, and they felt solid. I expect that within a few outings they'll be a great all-day comfort shoe.
