Building a home climbing wall? The heart of your setup lies in the climbing holds you choose. They dictate the difficulty, training potential, and even the fun factor.

Key Points:

• Types of Holds: Jugs, crimps, slopers, pockets – each trains different grip styles.

• Material Matters: Resin vs. polyurethane – resin offers better grip, PU is lighter.

• Setting Tips: Mix shapes and orientations for varied routes.

• Maintenance: Clean with a soft brush; check for sharp edges or damage.

Takeaway:
Whether training for the crag or just having fun indoors, selecting the right mix of climbing holds elevates your wall from basic to elite.
