These slopes are a part of our system training set. They are not textured on the front side to keep your hand pads from getting torn up while training. As a stand alone hold, these slopes can be used as a great beginner slope but they are covered in differential texture so they can be made more difficult by a simple rotation. As a part of a system training set, These slopes can be mounted in pairs of two for sequential slope power training. Carabineer not included but shown for size reference.
