Mains = Hands

“Mains” means “chief in size or importance.” “Mains” also translates to “hands” in french. My mains in both senses of the word.

AESTHETIC TAPE



Most aesthetic taping. Reference from Noah’s ascents of Quartz and Insomniac. Met him once in the gym, very kind to climb with my fanboy kid.

 

ALL HOLDS, NO CATS.

My interpretation of the standard climbing holds T - pocket, pinch, sloper, undercling.

 

CRACK WRAP

Tbh I’ve never tried crack wraps, but I have tried boxing wraps.

 

CRIMP MATCH

When one hand was crimping and chilling, and then the whole other hand wants in too. Sometimes it do be like that. Reference is Allison Vest, one of my favs, super strong fingies.

 

DEATH GRIP

Originally a Halloween sketch. Send it or die tryin’.

 

FINGIES OUCHIES

Just tape it up.

 

HANGING FLOWER

This is a sketch of hangboard product photo. I thought the hand was beautiful. Took some artistic license on the colors.


HEY CRIMP

Check out that Abductor digiti minimi.

 

MONOPOCKET


This probably looks indecent to non-climbers but I swear it legit occurs in climbing, both indoors and outdoors.

 

MOON CRIMP

Sketch based off of Old Man Moon’s photo. I met the climber who the hand belongs to!

 

MY ONLY


Blow then climb.

 

SUPER CRIMP

Noboyuki Nagata’s super crimpin hand. His energy is amazing and he is all about having FUN in climbing!
