Beastmaker 1000 Series Fingerboard

Product Information

Comfortable, labeled edge sizes, holds for warming up and training hard, great full length jug hold, asymmetric hold layout The pegboard is not as strenuous on the fingers as the hangboard. So, it can be a good option for climbers who are working to build up their base of strength before shifting their focus to their fingers. Additional Resources I was thinking getting the 1000, as the 2000's holds might be too tiny/hard/painful especially if finger strength is a weakness of mine? Or should I look at it the other way, if I get the 1000, already being a "7c climber" whatever that may mean and be an accurate measure of finger strength, the 1000 may not make me gain finger strength fast enough or less effective. finger open handed hang on either hold 3 or hold 4 (2 handed hang using hold 3 or 4 for the left hand and the corresponding hold for the right hand). This is an open handed hang so don’t put your thumb over your fingers (i.e. the crimp position). Complete the set as detailed above. 3 mins rest.

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. Repeaters focus a little more on the longer end of strength - towards strength endurance. But potentially they are also a great way of developing maximum strength due to the sustained time of contraction of the muscles in the forearm.The difficulty with wooden fingerboards is that they provide less traction than those made from polyester resin and polyurethane. This makes it more difficult to keep a strong hold on them—upping the difficulty level of your workout. First, it’s important to think about what kind of climber you are, what kind of climber you’d like to become, and how a hangboard would best help you through the process. Although there’s a subjective element to the difficulty scale for grading climbing routes, grades can be a useful benchmark when shopping for a hangboard.

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. The Beastmaker 2000 is not a hangboard for beginners, it has been designed with the input of some of the best climbers the UK has to offer. The result is a hangboard which tests the limits of finger strength and will help you towards your high grade goals.

Now, put away the bottom board and take out the fresh top board. We will be making some through holes. Because the top and middle rows of holds on the Beastmaker 1000 are deeper than a single board, we'd have to drill through the top board, and then later align the holes with those on the bottom board. Each hold has a corresponding hold on the other side of the fingerboard. Each hang is done with left hand on the numbered hold and the right hand on the corresponding hold on the right of the fingerboard. Based on the surface, decide what kind of fixings you need – consult a local hardware store if you don’t know

You want to buy the Beastmaker 1000 if you still need to be made a beast. Go get the Beastmaker 2000 when you’re already a beast.Like wooden hangboards, resin boards need to be lightly cleaned occasionally to prevent the buildup of gunk and chalk as well as to maintain their ideal texture. How to Hang a Hangboard I've measured the 1000 with a simple ruler and will do the same with the 2000 next time I'm at the gym, but if someone has 15minutes to spare and wants to have a go at it, just reply to this and I'll update the table with proper credit. Plastic boards tend to have more creative shapes and holds, but they are rougher on the skin due to the added texture needed to create friction. Boards that are rough on the skin can be helpful for building calluses but also require some healing time after a workout. If you are warming up for your climbing day on a hangboard, consider wood over plastic to help keep your skin in top shape for the day. If you value variety in your holds, plastic boards may be worth the cost of some skin. A complete training system: includes both the board and the universal mounting system, to easily install anywhere with only a screwdriver
