The texture of this hold will make you work for every move; sloppy footwork will be punished and poor body position will have you on the pads.

An XL-sized sloper that you can pinch if you can. Fine on vertical walls and downright nasty on anything beyond 10 degrees. Has an added screw hole to help prevent unwanted rotation.

This hold requires 1 x 1.5" bolt.

Depending on your MOBILE device and browser you may have the option to view this hold/set in Augmented Reality (AR) on your wall. Will not work on desktop.

How to view in AR:

  1. If you see the link "View on Your Wall", simply tap the link and wait for 1-4 seconds.  Link not visible?  Your device/browser is not AR capable.
  2. When your camera opens and the 3D model of the hold appears, point your camera at a well lit wall and the hold will be "placed" there.  If your camera does not open, your device/browser is not AR capable.
  3. Once placed, you can move your device around the hold, get close, move out, above, below, place your hand close to it, rotate using two fingers.

I have tested using an iphone 12 pro (ios 17.1) and latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Safari and they work perfect.

TIPS:  

  • Best results seem to be with Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
  • Wall/surface needs to be well lit
  • Seems to help for there to be something else on the wall, like art, light switch, door/window frame close to where you want to place object, needs reference points
  • If hold moves around, then it needs some reference point close by, see point above
  • Brick/textured walls work well
  • Object can be placed on flat surfaces too, but since it is a climbing hold it will be oriented vertically
  • You can rotate the hold with 2 fingers
  • Hopefully soon you will be able to place object on overhanging walls in the correct orientation
  • Not working but you feel it should?  There are so many variables that could prevent it from working, but the code I am using is written by a third party and I have zero control over it.

So much fun

The XL Sloper 99 is heaps of fun. The texture is somewhat grippy, yet devilishly slippery. Oriented horizontally on the 90° wall, it’s a real challenge. I find myself pinching it between the fingers and palm with my arm straight and horizontal. I find it a little easier when it’s rotated to 45° from horizontal. Would I recommend it? I have three of them. They’re wicked, but have the crash mats ready.

Good on vertical terrain

I got this to try out the texture. The description of it is accurate; you have to work harder to get something out of it. Closer to outdoor climbing really. As for the shape, its a short, steep sloper bordering on a pinch. i prefer it on my vertical wall or on shallow angle changes. I tried it on a sharper angle change on a volume and found the radius to be a bit too severe.
