Our Portable Hangboards

No more sore tips from outdoor warm ups after days of climbing, and no more torn skin from block pulls; just comfortable edges that let you train harder for longer.

the refined edge

Your skin will notice.

Refined across 40+ iterations, every edge carries its own perfect ratio of rounding to edge length to incut. Load spreads evenly across the whole finger pad with no hotspots to stretch or rip your skin, so warming up and training stay comfortable session after session.

Warm up efficiently at the crag. Your skin stays fresh through long outdoor days, even many in a row.

Block pulls without the damage. Heavy pulls load the whole pad, so no more ripped pinkies.

Incredibly comfortable. The profile forms naturally to your fingers.

Six comfort-cut edges, one block of sapele.

Personalized rounding & incut for every edge. Load spreads across your whole fingertip pad with no hotspots that tug on sore skin or rip skin when training.

Solid sapele. Dense ribbon-grain hardwood that keeps its edge shape for years, even down to the 6 mm micro edge.

Every edge a climber would need. Warm up edge down to the 6 mm micro: six marked edges and one pinch, plus three unmarked usable edges (a 4 mm inner edge and slopey 22 and 28 mm).

Lighter than your chalk bucket.

180 grams of boxwood. The compact version.

Rounded + incut, every edge. The same comfort-cut geometry as the Trainer, sized for the approach and the crag.

Dense boxwood. Kind on cold-morning skin. Ideal for sore skin after days of climbing.

Compact. Warm up edge down to 10 mm. Four marked edges plus a pinch at nearly half the weight of the Trainer, and a 6 mm unmarked inner edge on top.

Lighter than your chalk bag.

Questions.

Does it actually save my skin?

Yes, that is the whole design. Refined across 40+ iterations, every edge carries its own perfect ratio of rounding to edge length to incut, so load spreads across your whole fingertip pad with no hotspots. Less sore skin warming up outside, no torn skin on block pulls, and faster recovery between sessions.

Trainer or Trainer Mini?

The Trainer is the full protocol: six edges down to the 6 mm micro, a standard wide pinch, and three unmarked usable edges (4 mm inner, slopey 22 and 28). The Trainer Mini is the compact version: four edges down to 10 mm, a smaller rounded pinch, and a 6 mm inner edge, at nearly half the weight.

How do I use it?

Hang it from a pull-up bar or branch, wrap the cord around your foot to warm up, or use it on the ground for block pulls!

Can I travel with it?

Yes. Solid wood, no metal edges, carry-on friendly. At 300 grams for the Trainer and 180 for the Trainer Mini, either one disappears into a pack.

The Trainer angled with its cord The Trainer working face with laser-marked 20, 6 and 8 mm edges The Trainer with the engraved Refined Climbing logo

The Refined Climbing Trainer is a hangboard built for comfortable finger training and warming up.

Every edge is engineered by professional climbers based in Salt Lake City, Utah to be rounded and slightly incut, so the load spreads across your fingertips instead of biting into them. That means less skin pain, longer training sessions, and faster skin recovery between them.

Made from solid Sapele, a dense reddish brown hardwood with a ribbon grain. It is hard enough to keep its edge shape over years of use, and it looks good enough that you will not mind leaving it out.

Edges: 25mm, 20mm, 15mm, 10mm, 8mm, 6mm, plus a pinch.

Good for warmups, max hangs, repeaters, and pickups. Works for beginners through advanced climbers.

The Refined Climbing Trainer Mini is a compact portable hangboard built for comfortable finger training, warming up, and throwing in a pack.
