Training Beam "Whetstone" by Tension: The Ideal Introduction
The Whetstone has been designed to be an ideal training beam for climbers starting their training journey. We have included a series of elements that we have found regularly valuable for both new and experienced climbers.
The top of the Whetstone is something new. The edge profile has been designed to promote a more "active" grip and reduce wrist "over-wrapping." A series of "ergonomic bumps" has been included to enhance grip comfort and also act as an edge that can be draped in an open hand grip to more evenly distribute force between each finger, thus aiding in the rehabilitation of certain finger pains.
The 40 mm two-finger pockets are perfectly sculpted to offer the most comfortable pockets you have ever felt on a training beam.
We have integrated a progression of larger edges for beginners on the beam (and for experienced climbers with large hands), while progressing up to a 20 mm edge, which has become the benchmark edge size for reference tests.
The central edge has a depth of 40 mm, but with a fully customized edge profile that is tilted at 10 degrees to facilitate an introduction to more advanced one-arm hang progressions.
