Edge Feel
"The smooth wooden holds are a great challenge for grip, the edges aren't too sharp which means your fingers will be tested but allows for longer workouts if desired."
Aesthetics
"10/10 for aesthetics and feel. It's a nice counterpart to the bulky, colourful, plastic hangboards that are mainstream."
Versatility
"I get a good variety of workouts out of it, whether it's simple pull ups or maximum effort dead hangs."
Setup
"The setup was simple, once the screws are in, the board feels very secure while in use."
