The XL Sloper 5 climbing hold is the ultimate challenge for climbers who only want to rely on friction. A true sloper, this hold offers no pinches or thumb catches, demanding precise technique and grip strength. With its low profile and a small hump for subtle variation, the XL Sloper 5 is ideal for reaching around aretes, wall angle changes and slabby walls, pushing climbers to their limits.

This hold sucks as it is meant to.

This hold represents the complex feelings all climbers have at some point towards holds/routes/climbing. I hate this hold. it sucks. it is terrible. but that is exactly why i bought it. But when i stick it, oh man does it feel good. A low profile sloper with a small hump along the middle. as the description says, friction only. A great companion to Sloper 2 which is a much more positive sloper. I cant bring myself to give this hold 5 stars just because it doesnt seem right. Why do we do this to ourselves?
