Board?

We have been holed up in our new workshop for the last week armed with saws and drills (and a small pile of broken drill bits) building our new board at one end of it. It is a monster and hopefully we will all be monsters as well soon after a bit of pulling down on it. At 16 feet wide by 13 feet long it is also makes the perfect quality control tool, as we can give all of our new shapes a good beating to check they are good enough to include in our ranges.

Here are a few photos of our progress erecting our new toy.

Here is our workshop before building begins:















And then came the wood:




















And then some boards (thanks Gary for lending us your muscles and long limbs):




















And a couple of holds:




















We have also been busy creating a couple of new ranges, including a screw-on range carved by our very own British Bouldering Champion Ned Feehally. Coming soon!
