Review on Enhance Your Grip And Climbing Skills With The Yes4All Wooden Hang Board For Doorways by Jay Maryland

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great quality for the price

I've used a few different hangboards over the years, mostly in the $100-$200 range. This one is just as solid as much more expensive boards and has an excellent diversity of holds.For quality at this price point, this hang board definitely deserves 5/5 stars. However a few caveats below:There could have been slightly more effort spent on sanding and finish -- probably 90% on point and smooth, but a few areas around holds were still protruding or uneven.The two bolt-on/adjustable pinch grip holds are a great idea, but the bolt and insert nut system they use isn't great. They tend to either rotate under your weight (I'm 170) or, if you crank the bolts in tight, start to pull the insert nuts out of the wood.Finally, the dimensions (22" width) are given accurately, but there's one photo in the product description showing the board is as wide as an adult male with arms outstratched in a 'Y' position. In my case (5'10") that would imply a hangboard around 40"-44" wide. so unless that man is an oompa loompa, that photo is a very poor photoshop job.
