Below you can find some reviews of these products in climbing magazines!
Climbing
It has been 13 years since the arrival of the best-seller GRIPMASTER, the finger/forearm trainer with individual finger reinforcement that you will find at the checkouts and in the climbing backpacks of, well, most climbers. Now it receives an update that is even more in line with the needs of us climbers: the PROHANDS PRO ($21.95, prohands.net), available in three tensions: Medium (7lbs); Heavy (9lbs); and Extra Heavy (11lbs). Based on the Gripmaster model, the Pro adds a wider profile, an ergonomic palm bar, and wear-resistant steel springs. The device is fun, and the pump is more wicked than Skeletor; I used my Heavy for mega-training post-training and to warm up on the cold cliffs of October.
Urban Climber
Heading down the boulevard from El Paso to Hueco Tanks, a car full of enthusiastic climbers warms up their fingers with the Gripmaster Pro. It is a medium tension grip equivalent to 7lbs of tension. It is tough, no doubt, but a slight squeeze does the trick to get the energy flowing. The Extra Heavy, shown here, is in the glove compartment. That comes next. It is a different kind of monster. With 11lbs of tension, it is capable of building steel hands, wrists, and forearms. This is not warming up or the act of opening, that is for sure... unless you are Fred Nicole.
Climbing Magazine: Christmas Gift Guide Review
Ah, the holiday season, when well-meaning friends and relatives try to gift you what they think is trendy, but typically is not. Or, the time of year when you are trying to figure out what the special gift for Festivus is for your partner who has patiently belayed you on countless routes. Fear not, whether you are giving or receiving, we have you covered with everything from stocking stuffers to big gifts. Being stuck at the desk in winter doesn’t have to be a tragedy for training. If you have a GRIPMASTER ($15) on hand, you can do a bit of quick finger reinforcement between the covers of your TPS reports. Just make sure not to pump yourself up too much to start hammering on the keyboard when your boss peeks in.
