Method: Roster covers fourteen climbing hangboards/finger-training boards spanning entry-level wood fingerboards to elite edge-training and portable warm-up boards, verified 2026-08-12 directly against manufacturer storefronts (Beastmaker, Tension Climbing, Trango, Metolius, So iLL, Zlagboard, Lattice Training, Escape Climbing, PhysiVantage) via their own product pages/JSON endpoints; specs not published by the manufacturer (e.g. exact grip-position counts, some sloper angles, some mounting details) are left null rather than estimated. Six adversarial corrections were made to the seed list, each because the named product does not exist or could not be verified: (1) "Tension The Grindstone 2.0" — the current product on tensionclimbing.com is simply named "Grindstone" (same lineage/successor); used as-is. (2) "Metolius Wood Grips Deluxe" — discontinued; replaced with its direct current successor, the "Wood Grips II Training Board" (Deluxe II variant, SKU WOOD005). (3) "Metolius Simulator 3D" — the current storefront name is "Simulator Training Board" (same product line, renamed); used as the modern equivalent. (4) "Escape Climbing Session" — no product by this name exists on escapeclimbing.com (checked full training collection); replaced with Escape's actual current hangboard, the SendBoard, co-designed with Sasha DiGiulian. (5) "PhysiVantage Progression" — PhysiVantage is primarily a sports-nutrition brand and sells no proprietary hangboard called "Progression"; its site instead resells other manufacturers' boards, so the entry was replaced with the Lattice "MEGA Bar" Portable Hangboard as listed for sale on physivantage.com. (6) "Antworks Portable" and "Griptonite Motherboard" and "Y&Y Hangboard" — no resolvable, active website for any of these three claimed brands could be found (domains unregistered, parked, or DNS-failed); replaced respectively with Metolius Rock Rings 3D, Tension Climbing's Honestone, and Tension Climbing's Flash Board — all verified real, currently-sold portable/edge training boards. Beastmaker's official UK site (beastmaker.co.uk) lists both the 1000 and 2000 Series at a manufacturer price of £105.00 GBP each with no direct USD storefront; priceUsd for both instead uses the official US distributor price ($159.00 on soillholds.com) rather than an FX-converted guess. accessedAt 2026-08-12 throughout.
