- The Revolution hold line is arranged in three different series: Basic, Real and Abstract. The Basic Series holds represent the six different styles of gripping. The Real Series holds mimic the rock features and textures from different climbing areas around the globe. The Abstract Series holds have bizarre, artsy, versatile and original shapes to keep it funky.

- Each of the Series has six different Styles and each Style has 66 different holds in 7 size categories. This makes the organization of over 1200 holds (including Training Holds) easier for us and the selection of the holds easier for you.

- Many of our climbing holds have broad, flat surfaces and there¹s a good reason for that. The flat sides allow you to screw on some Hand Jibs or Foot Jibs to customize your holds. In doing so, any hold can have endless gripping options and add a more ³3-Dimensional² relief to your climbing wall. All of our Jibs come with self-tapping screws that can bore through climbing holds without breaking them.

- In case you haven¹t noticed, the Revolution line is heavy on the Hand and Foot Jibs. 380 of them to be exact. Why, you ask? Because the lack of bolts, washers and the added plastic to accommodate them means a less expensive climbing hold and less shipping weight. They can also fit in places where bolt-on holds cannot.

- We have done a lot of work recently with our plastic mix. We have started using a new type of resin and changed the amount and types of fillers and fiberglass included in the mix. The result is distinctly stronger climbing holds that are less prone to chipping and less expensive overall.

- We use a less porous foam when shaping all of our holds. This make a very skin-friendly, mellow texture that also reduces chalk build-up.

- The amount of new holds we have made in the last 15 months is bigger than most other companies¹s entire lines. We have shaped over 350 new holds this year to add to last year¹s introduction of over 700 new shapes. That¹s a lot of work and we hope you¹ll enjoy it!

- Last but not least, the shapes. Anybody can pour a blob of plastic, slap a bolt through it and call it a climbing hold... but good shapes make a good session. We pride ourselves in the shapes we have been making. Guys like Jason Kehl, Timy Fairfield and Mike Call have gone out of their way to make original styles, comfortable features and freshening up our previous styles.
