With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

The Metolius Wood GripsDeluxe II is alarge climbing training board aimed at all climbing levels and built with super skin friendly wood.
The second iteration of the Metolius Wood GripsDeluxe Fingerboardis perfectly suited to those who want to be able to use the fingerboard for long periods, or combined with regular climbing. The super skin friendly wood is much nicer to hold than resin with thin skinned fingertips. There are ample hold options on thislarge sized board and the steps in difficulty between the holds provide a good indication to your improvement as you make steady gains. It is worth pointing out that at first the board will be quite slick, but as you begin to use it, the board will get better to use as chalk begins to become embedded and provides a better grip and more pleasant use.
The Wood Grips Deluxe offers more holds than the compact version, including a series of smaller holds. This means the Deluxe will be better suited to all levels, whereas the Compact is a little more biased towards the mid/lower ability levels.It isquite an expensive board, butif it will see a lot of use thenit's a good choice. Occasional fingerboard users may still prefer a resin board.
Like many of the Metolius fingerboards the holds are pretty much just simple slots. On the wooden fingerboards they are flat with rounded edges. While you do not get as many different hold types compared to something like the Beastmaker fingerboards, the large number of similar style holds is a really good tool for making positive incremental gains. When you are ready to increase the difficulty you can choose slightly smaller holds and still maintain a good routine. A large jump in difficulty can sometimes throw you a bit too much. Whilst the holds are predominantly slots, they have enough clearance on some of them to be able to fully open hand, half crimp and on the smaller holds full crimp. This means you can still work on different hand grips/positions.
