hey, does anyone know when the second part of the holds review is coming out. at the moment, i have a bunch of old holds that i want to use on a new training wall:30-45 degrees, beacon look like the best and are cheap. what do other people recommend for smallish holds? cheers and thanks in advance, james

Dave's writing it now - there's been a bit of a delay because one manufacturer has changed their holds and a review of the newer ones needed to be done.

i'm writing it, and even i don't know.... :oops: soo hopefully.
for small holds, beacon holds are good (wide variety), as are the moon holds and the holdfast ones.
holdz are i the part2. they do a good range of holds, and some of they're slopers would go down a treat on a not-so steep wall (30, say).
also there will be the bleaustone (http://www.bleaustone.com/) symetric holds, which again are good on a 30-45 angle, for setting either system or symetrical type problems. will be more detail on these in the review.
rockworks do some god screw on dishes and rails, good for dead space, though the texture is a bit rough at first.

Must give my main man Pete Oxley the big up on his fantastic holds.

...............oh and he built us a pretty fly woodie :D
