Loading... Please wait...Voted “Editors Choice” in US climbing magazine Climbing October 2007 (see scanned pics) and “The dogs bollocks” by ukbouldering.com. What more can we say? Well how about this?
Finger strength is what sets good climbers apart from great climbers. Ultimately it is your fingers that keep you in contact with the rock and therefore they will be the limiting factor in what you can achieve. Neglect it at your peril. If you are going to buy one item of training equipment then make it a fingerboard.
As with all Moon products our design philosophy is definately less is more and the Moon fingerboard is no exception. Do not be conned into buying a fancy fingerboard at a high price. The Moon fingerboard is all you need. It contains all the differents types of holds you need to train on to get stronger for all types of climbing from half joint finger edges through to incut fingerjugs, 2 finger pockets through to 4 finger pockets and 2 different types of slopers. It’s a compact, simple design which if you used correctly will prove highly effective and will soon become your best friend.
Dimensions: 70 × 14 × 4 cm

This board is one of the smallest on the market. This will help you convince your partner to let you hang it inside. It is a very effective training tool as the holds are mostly quite small. This also means it is easy to injure yourself if you over-train. I would only recommend this board for anyone climbing 22 or above. Be very careful when starting to train on it - one short session per week and increase gradually. Tendon injuries take a long time to heal.
