CIRCUIT TAPE

Designed with skin preservation in mind, Circuit Tape is a breathable, cohesive tape that sticks to itself rather than you, so it works perfectly for chalky, sweaty sessions and won’t leave your skin soft and damp.

  • Stays put on chalky, sweaty hands. Perspiration does not reduce the cohesive bond.

  • Pre-tape to save skin, and it’s breathable so it won’t soften your tips.

  • Each roll is precut to 1/2” wide and contains 10 yds of tape.

  • Perfect size for carrying on route.

  • Comes in a reusable container to keep it clean.

FINGER CARE KIT

Healthy fingers are priority #1 if you want to climb your best.

Combining several tools that are must-haves for finger and forearm care, our Finger Care Kit is conveniently packaged in a Power Company logo linen bag so that you can easily take it with you whether you’re headed to the crag or the gym.

You get:

  • One Myofascial Release Ball.  Smaller than a lacrosse ball to allow you to dig into your forearms better. Roughly the size of a golf ball.

  • Two Finger Extensor Bands.  

  • Two Finger Acupressure Rings.

  • Two Finger Sized Voodoo Floss Bands.
