ClimbSkin Review Pros and Cons [Pictures and Proof]

April 14, 2016 by Jason Clements

The ClimbSkin Review Pros and ConsI enjoy rock climbing, and more specifically, I enjoy bouldering.  Every sesh, I want to improve.  I want an edge.  https://ankyratx.com/press-release/target-price-for-viagra/196/ sildenafil uk buy enter essay synonym dansk what book is for 6th grade writing essay https://robsonranchviews.com/article/college-essay-outline-template/4/ side effects using viagra free sample of essays cialis 20mg video is it ok to mix viagra and alcohol priligy with alcohol https://complextruths.org/case/essays-on-the-prince-by-machiavelli/68/ https://ardelyx.com/news-releases/can-you-workout-on-viagra/197/ good introduction nursing essay https://lukeeng.com/services/help-with-homework-for-math/54/ https://assessmentcentertraining.org/exercises/usc-part-time-mba-essay-tip/58/ bertolt brecht alienation effect essay viagra ayuda a durar mas source http://mlat.chapman.edu/annotated/john-randolph-haynes-foundation-doctoral-dissertation-fellowship/62/ enter site http://kell.indstate.edu/chapter/teaching-of-reading-in-grades-ec-6-course-reflection-essay/51/ difference beyween flomax and viagra allegra d not working anymore ieee research papers on biometrics benefits of technology in the classroom essay brave new world essay conclusion uf application essay help https://stonecottagegardens.com/fda/viagra-laboratory/14/ christy brown my left foot essay essay of mango fruit I want my skin healthy and strong so that my skin is not limiting my improvements.

So when my friend, Richard Lonski told me that he completed a birthday challenge that included something like a hundred laps – and he did NOT destroy his hands – because he used Friction Labs ClimbSkin, that got my attention.

Just so you know my biases, I have an affiliate account with Frictions Labs.  They make excellent chalk – it is worth trying if you are serious about improving your climbing.  You might like it; you might not.  That’s okay.

Keah Kalantari is one of the Founders at Frictions Labs – he shipped me a container of ClimbSkin at no cost to me.  He didn’t request a review in return for the ClimbSkin.  I did this experiment with ClimbSkin of my own accord.

ClimbSkin Review Pros and Cons: Here is My Experience

Pros:

  • ClimbSkin really works.  An Example:  I spent 6 hours working on a horizontal roof problem with little skin damage and nearly no skin soreness afterwards.
  • You only use a little bit with each application.  It should last many months for the average climber who climbs 3 to 4 times per week.
  • Friction Labs offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee
  • Many, many testimonials of real, satisfied customers
  • Solid owner, solid team behind it
  • You don’t need to be a climber to benefit from ClimbSkin

Testimonial from a Nurse I know through THE Climbing Community

ClimbSkin Testimonial from a NurseCons:

  • Chemicals in the ingredients
  • On sale ClimbSkin costs $20 per ounce
  • Your skin might become too callused (You must add an emery board to your kit.)
  • The label states:  Topic[al] Use Only

ClimbSkin Review Pros and Cons: How I Set Up My Experiment

  • Use ClimbSkin as directed for 14 to 21 days
  • Use no skin care product for 14 to 21 days
  • Use ClimbOn before and after climbing sessions for 14 to 21 days

ClimbSkin Review Pros and Cons: Experiment Notes

ClimbSkin

I used ClimbSkin from February 2 to February 21.  It took a few sessions for me to be convinced that ClimbSkin was making a difference.  And, YES, it did make my hands feel like I was wearing Magic Gloves that gave me a +10 power up protection for my skin.

Sure, I did feel some soreness.  Yes, I did get some cuts and splits.  Yes, I did get some chapped knuckles.

Yet, overall, my experience shows that ClimbSkin works in an almost unbelievable manner.  You can scroll down and see the picture diary and my notes for each day. >>>

No Skin Care Products

This portion of the experiment only lasted 2 climbing sessions.  Scroll down and look at the picture from February 25 – my hands were DESTROYED.  I ended this portion of the experiment because I had some bouldering trips planned and did not want to be recovering from skin soreness and damage.

ClimbOn

I have to give this portion of the experiment another trial.  I feel that when I was not using any product for those 2 sessions, I deeply damaged my skin – under my calluses.  Then I was catching up to recover while using the ClimbOn.

The duration of the ClimbOn portion, my calluses were always sore, but my knuckles healed up quickly and the little tears, splits, and cuts healed up very quickly too.


ClimbSkin Review Pros and Cons: My Conclusions

Man, I want to be in deep, deep love with ClimbSkin.  This product by Friction Labs will extend your climbing sessions.  ClimbSkin will give you more tries on your project.  Your skin will be stronger.  It flat out works.

However, it gives me pause when I look at an ingredients list and it says “poly-butyl-pooper-gumby-46.”  [I don’t even know what that is.]

The chemicals (synthetic ingredients) are going to be a deal breaker for some.  That is okay.  There is going to be that small group in the climbing population that is sensitive to some chemicals in a skin care product.

And there are going to be some of you who want your care products to be food-grade like ClimbOn and SkiNourishment products.  That’s okay, too.

Find out what works for you with some solid self-experimentation.  Good luck to you!
