Beastmaker 1000 Series Fingerboard

Product Information

This is a compilation of information available online about the edge/hold size of the two Beastmakers fingerboards (1000 & 2000) Do you have to jump or stand on a chair to reach your board? Do your feet drag on the ground when you’re hanging? Ideally, the top of the board should be within reach while standing on the ground with the arms slightly bent. This allows you to comfortably use every hold on the board from a standing position. With regular use, proper form, and an intentional training schedule, all of the hangboards on this list can help you shatter performance plateaus and improve as a climber.

Hangboards can come in at a wide range of prices. On the top end of this price range, we often see high levels of hold variety, chosen with significant research. The edge depths will be laser-precise and well-labeled while also having excellent comfort and ergonomics. For those serious about their training and who enjoy specific data points, hangboards in this category are going to be worth their cost. For those less focused on specifics and more interested in just getting some weight on their fingers, you can find a lot of value in boards at a lower cost. Wood is a natural product. It grows out of the ground! It’s a varied and interesting material with wonderful properties for training on. However, wood isn’t a uniform material and has natural variations in its density, colour and texture. Warm up on the climbing wall/fingerboard for at least 15mins. Take your time with the warm up. If you start training without fully warming up you are at a much greater risk of injury. Finger injuries are nasty and take a long time to heal. You should do your very best to avoid them.different usage orientations with 22 distinct grip positions: the widest range of finger training options in the industry Polyester fingerboards provide better grip, but are heavier and more difficult to mount. Multi-Purpose Fingerboards We tend to say that if you are bouldering up to Font 7C/V9 (leading French 8a/5.13), the 1000 will be the best board for you and if you are climbing 7C/V9 (French 8a/5.13) and above, the 2000 may suit you better. However, we know of loads of very strong climbers that only ever use the 1000 and loads of guys just starting out who get a lot out of the 2000. It’s up to you! These books were written by climbers for climbers. These resources can offer answers to questions that will undoubtedly arise as you explore the path of hangboarding and climbing-specific training.

For the standard two-arm hang, begin with a duration of between 5 and 10 seconds. Between repetitions, rest for at least a full minute. This exercise is hangboarding at its most simple. Non-structural plasterboard walls are hollow and not designed to take weight. You cannot just attach the fingerboard to the plasterboard as it breaks easily and the damages can be huge. The key thing is to find the wooden structure, the timber studs, underneath the plaster. You can find the studs by tapping the wall and listening to the non-hollow sounds or you can use a stud finder. The studs form a grid and usually frame the door. Fix the beastmaker on this plywood sheet with the fingerboard screws. You might want to have two sheets of plywood so you can attach them on both sides to stabilise the frame. And maybe attach a 1000 series beastmaker on one side and a 2000 on the other! Comfortable, labeled edge sizes, holds for warming up and training hard, great full length jug hold, asymmetric hold layout Hang with one hand in a larger hold, and alternate hands between hangs so each hand has hung 3 times off a smaller hold and 3 times off a larger hold.For this review of the best hangboards of 2023, we tested over 10 boards over multiple seasons to determine the best of the best. We hung from our fingertips at the gym, at home, and at the crag — all in an effort to put together this list. Wood is far superior to resin in terms of its natural properties of grip, porosity and texture. Wood is far and away the best training material currently available for finger strength, and the good news is it grows on trees! Yes! Wood is an amazing material to train on. Its texture is just grippy enough to function properly (i.e. you can actually hang on to it!), while being smooth and kind on the skin. One of the main advantages of wood over resin fingerboards is that wood absorbs a bit of moisture from your skin. Resin isn’t porous, so once the chalk on the surface has absorbed some sweat from your hands, the rest of the moisture is left hanging around and making things slippy. Wood can absorb a bit of the moisture from your hands leaving the holds feeling grippy after a number of repeated hangs.
