I am in the process of building a home gym for the winter but am very limited on budget, does anyone have any beta on where to by gym holds for a reasonable price? or does anyone have any holds they are wanting to get rid of? hit me back if you have any suggestions.

you can make your own out of virtually anything, and cover them with grip tape (skateboard website) or paint mixed with sand.

or, ask hold companies for their seconds. those are basically the defects, but they still do the trick and are often cheaper, plus you can get lots of individual holds that way.

thanks for the beta, i will try contacting hold companies and see what i can get, have you had luck doing that before? any companies easier to deal with than others?

I've gotten a small hangboard from So Ill holds that was a second, they were selling it on ebay at a pretty reduced priced. Little discolored, works perfectly.

We have had good luck with So ill holds at a reduced cost and they are a nice company. We also have extra holds and willing
to sell. Give us a pm.

Tom, see if Lourdes & Miguel / Santi have any extras from their bouldering wall.

the picture on that site with the guy with a hold on his penis.... not cool.
i do like the holds though.

so ill is the best tho... they sell seconds on ebay all the time under the name soill5000. you can get great holds at around 2 bucks a hold.
