om the for sale thread, or you could try a climbin shop n lookin on the for sale boards. ie in outside on sat there was a note saying 40 metolius holds for sale £40. most climbin shops have these little customer boards

holdfast does some good semi-anguler medium sized slopers (see hold review pt1) which are probably the cheapest, holdz slopers are good, but too hard for steep angles generally. frenchrock slopers are good, and the beacon Egg holds are good slopes but you generally end up pinching them, although they are a good price.

if you wanna scope out the holds and frenchrock shapes get to the matrix and see what you need.

depending on your wall angle, i might have summert you could make use of. PM me. I'm also packing a walkley woody. its the must-have accessory for the modern homeowner. fuck renovating a bathroom, but some ply.

theres always someone on ebay selling 1000s of holds, generally frenchrock and holdz. its probably a hold shop just selling them on ebay on the sly.
