Your style of climbing

In every discipline. The same problem.

Bouldering
Contact force. Power moves. High ball.

Bouldering demands maximum friction on short, intense problems. Every crimp, sloper and pinch is a moment where friction decides everything. Skin oil on your fingertips can be the difference between sticking the move and starting over.

Max contactPower movesSloper problems
How it affects your climb:
Sloper problems

Slopers demand maximum friction across your whole palm. The moment skin oil is on your hands, that contact area shrinks and the hold gets slicker. Traditional chalk does not help, because you cannot reapply mid-move. Good grip starts with clean, oil-free contact with the hold.

Crimp feeling

Crimps are entirely about friction on your fingertips. The moment skin oil is on them, that tight contact with the hold weakens and the crimp feels less secure. Less oil means more direct friction and more control over every move.

Session length

The longer your session runs, the more skin oil builds up on your hands. Later problems in the session become more and more about an oil layer traditional chalk does not solve.

Sport climbing
Routes. Endurance. Redpoint.

Sport routes demand sustained friction over many metres of climbing. Along the way skin oil keeps building on your hands. By the crux, the friction you had at the first clip is no longer the friction you have at the top.

RoutesTechniqueRedpoint season
How it affects your climbing:
Crux at the top

The hardest moves are often high on the route. Meanwhile skin oil has been building up on the lower section, so friction drops exactly when you need it most.

Redpoint attempts

Redpointing means every attempt counts. But because the amount of skin oil varies per session, your friction differs on every attempt.

Outdoor conditions

Warm rock and direct sunlight activate skin oil faster than an air-conditioned gym. Chalkless Black keeps working in outdoor conditions where traditional chalk struggles.

Traditional
Gear. Cracks. Commitment.

Trad climbing demands sustained effort on holds you did not set and cannot brush clean. During the pitch, skin oil keeps building in cracks and on natural features. Both secure jams and technical slab moves depend on hands that are not working against that oil.

Crack techniqueLong pitchesRemote settings
How it affects your climbing:
Reliability of your jams

Hand jams depend on friction between your skin and the crack. Skin oil reduces the contact that makes a jam feel truly locked in. Chalkless Black deals with that oil before you start the pitch, so your grip stays consistent from the first move to the last.

Slabs and friction climbing

Friction climbing offers no mechanical advantage at all. Every percent of friction in your palm matters. The moment skin oil is on your palm, you lose the edge you started with.

Multi-pitch days

One application before you tie in covers the whole day. On longer days you can easily reapply at belay stations.

Application

Before you tie in.
One application.

Enough for the whole session

Apply to both hands

Apply a small amount. Do not use too much. More is not better.

Rub in

Rub evenly over fingers and palm. The Grip-tint technology reveals temporary color showing where you've applied it. Continue rubbing until the tint disappears.

Start climbing

One application is enough for a full session. If your session runs longer than two to three hours, you can reapply.

Why it works

Clean skin.
Solid grip.

Chalkless Black does not put a layer on your hands. It binds skin oil, so the hold feels the way it should again.

Chalk absorbs sweat

Chalk dries your hands but does not bind skin oil. The friction problem remains, even after chalking up.

Oil is the deciding factor

Skin oil on your hands forms a thin lubricating layer between your fingertips and the hold. Chalkless Black binds that oil, so contact feels direct and stable again.

Grip-Tint shows your coverage

A subtle tint shows where the product has been applied. Work it in and the tint disappears, while the coverage stays.

Get grip. Keep grip.

Chalkless Black gives you grip. One application at the base of the route covers your whole session.
