Variety: The Key to a Useful Spray Wall

Crimps are great. You need pinches. My favorite are big slopers.

Really old holds from the gym with zero texture. These new-school, fiberglass joints from the big companies. And of course, Wood. Wood is good.

Different rock types feel different, so should the holds that you train on.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the wood come from?

Mostly from local arborists, but we've also been known to score offcuts from fine furniture and cabinet makers. What we DON'T do, is have any lumber shipped to us. We believe strongly in keeping our supply chains as local as possible.

What's the best way to keep my holds clean?

Brushing regularly is usually enough. If you want to go further- spray a little isopropyl alcohol (70% is fine), brush, then wipe with a cloth.

When will I get my order?

We try to get your order shipped ASAP. Most will ship same or next business day, and a tracking number will be provided.

Where are you located?

We're lucky enough to call Golden, CO home and we do our best to partner with real folks in our community.

Why do you list some measurements in metric and some in standard?

Great question!

What if I have a different question?

About Us

Authentic Board Style

Born from necessity and refined out of love - our goal is simple: provide thoughtful, useful grips to board climbers everywhere.

We know the space on your spray wall is limited. We also know that aesthetics matter, and nobody wants a plain-jane board. Honestly, same.

That's why we started on this path initially, to fill our beloved Rage Cave. After experiencing first hand the lack of quality options available specifically for spray wall users, we turned our love for shaping and board climbing into a mission. Representation in the hold market, not just for gyms, comps and commercial systems - ferda board.

Please reach out with any questions or to share some psych! I feel incredibly grateful to share this with you.
