VICE GRIPS

We think Volumes are boring.

While gray pyramids will aways have a place on the climbing wall, we think it’s time they evolved. Volumes are the back bone of modern route setting - allowing wall profiles and angles to be changed at a whim. But the ply-wood they are build from limits the shapes they can take.

In the last few years macros, have proven that large dramatic shapes are not only beautiful but incredible to climb on. Unfortunately, often the materials macros are made out of made it impractical for route setters to add riders or jibb the shapes, limiting what’s possible.

Using new manufacturing methods, our mission is to bridge the gap and meld the strength and durability of the classic volume with the shape and feel of the modern macro.

Halley

is a twist on the a classic. We looked at the classic pyramid but stretched one edge to swept back adding some more dimension to any move.

Saturn

a dramatic shape on any wall. Fantastic as a group that can stack for a range of depths or solo as delicate heal hooks, laybacks, and pinches.

Nebula-01

is sometimes a pinch but depending how this hold is angled new possibilities emerge.

Pluto

it might sound tiny but this shape makes a huge impact on the wall. With three variations and bespoke size and texture options, there’s room for a Pluto in every set.
