Brushing holds is a pretty vital part of bouldering, but often the holds that need the most attention from the bristles are those that are out of reach.

FRCC Eastern Crags | Guidebook Review

Here at last! The new Eastern Crags guide is now available nearly 90 years after the FRCC produced their very first guidebook to Dow Crag in 1922. No longer are the proud crags of the Eastern Fells piggy-backed on to what some might see as the inferior area of Buttermere.

Mad Rock Mugen Tech 2.0 | Climbing Shoe Review

On initial inspection I was impressed; there were none of the zany features that have put me off buying Mad Rocks in the past.

Beastmaker | Fingerboard Review

Fingerboards have come along way since the first hefty great offerings from the likes of Entre-Prises and Bendcrete. Those original old boards were often hulking, tombstones of resin with skin searing edges at highly aggressive angles, and certainly not something that anyone, bar the keenest 'cellar dweller', would aspire to use on a regular basis.

Rockfax West Country Climbs | Guidebook Review

Superlatives fall short when describing the brilliant climbing that is found in the South West of England. What is widely regarded as one of the best ‘destinations’ for British climbers is also one of the most diverse.

The summer alpine season is upon us and if you are in the process of making final decisions about what gear to take, and what to leave behind, the chances are you are wondering what crampons to take (if any).
