We’ve distilled decades of hangboarding experience into three individual hangboards designed to offer the modern climber a series of tools to push their limits. Every board is manufactured and hand-finished in our shop in Denver, Colorado.
The Whetstone was designed to be the ideal first hangboard for climbers beginning their training journey. We have included a series of elements that we’ve found consistently valuable for both new and seasoned climbers.
BOARD DETAILS
1
TOP JUG
The top jug on the Whetstone is something new. The edge profile was designed to promote a more “active” grip and reduce “over-wrapping” the wrist. A series of “ergo-bumps” was included to both improve the comfort of the grip and also to act as an edge that can be draped in an open-handed grip to more evenly distribute force between each finger as an aid for rehabilitating some finger tweaks.
2
EDGES
We built in a progression of larger edges for beginning hangboarders (and for experienced hangboarders with larger hands), while still progressing down to a 20mm edge, which has become the defacto edge size for benchmark testing. All edges on the Whetstone are rounded with our custom edge radius for maximum comfort.
3
CENTER EDGE
The center edge is 40mm deep, but with a fully custom edge profile that is incut at 10 degrees to help facilitate an introduction to more advanced 1-arm hanging progressions.
4
TWO-FINGER POCKETS
The 40mm 2-finger pockets are perfectly sculpted to provide the most comfortable pockets you’ve ever felt on a hangboard.
The Honestone is a purpose-built tool for preparing athletes for their hardest sends. We have incorporated all the necessities for climbers looking to push their limits.

1
SLOPERS
We traded a top jug for a set of asymmetrically aligned slopers with continuously variable curvature and a skin-friendly macro-texture to offer a unique and trainable sloper experience.
2
ONE-FINGER POCKETS
One-finger pockets are one of the most demanding grips in climbing. We couldn’t (and wouldn’t) make them easy, so we settled on making them comfortable. As comfortable as 25mm one-finger pockets can be.
3
LARGE EDGES
For the large edge selection, we went with 20mm and 15mm edges with our custom edge radius for maximum comfort during repeated efforts and frequent training sessions.
4
CENTER EDGE
The center edge on the board is 25mm deep and incut at 10 degrees, with a custom edge radius and rounded inside corner. An edge that is designed specifically for 1-handed hanging progression.
5
SMALL EDGES
For small edge selection, we provide 10mm and 8mm edges with a 1/8th inch edge radius to balance bite and comfort.
The Grindstone is the ultimate edge training platform. With a broad range of edge sizes and our ultra comfortable edge radius, this hangboard has quickly become a staple for beginner to elite climbers all over the world.

2

For small edges, the Grindstone offers 10mm and 8mm edges with a 1/8th inch edge radius to balance bite and comfort.
