Climbing Chalk

Sort By:
A solid grip is the foundation of every successful move on the rock. Climbing chalk is the essential tool every climber needs to manage sweat and maximise friction, giving you the confidence to hold on through the crux of any route or boulder problem.

Made from pure magnesium carbonate, this rock climbing chalk absorbs moisture from your hands, ensuring a secure connection with the hold. Choose the format that best suits your climbing style. Classic loose climbing chalk or a crushable chalk block offers reliable performance for all-day use, applied straight from your bouldering chalk bucket or chalk bag.

For a durable, mess-free base layer, liquid chalk is an excellent choice, particularly for indoor sessions or redpoint attempts where every bit of friction counts. Find the right indoor climbing chalk to keep your hands dry and your focus sharp. A good coat of chalk is your best defence against slippery holds, helping you push your limits and send your project.

Climbing chalk is made from magnesium carbonate (MgCO₃), a mineral that absorbs moisture and improves grip. It reduces sweat on your hands, increasing friction between your skin and climbing holds, making it essential for both indoor and outdoor climbing.

Climbing chalk comes in three main forms: loose powder, blocks, and liquid. Loose chalk is versatile and easy to apply, blocks are cost-effective and can be crushed as needed, while liquid chalk provides long-lasting coverage and minimal mess.

Dip your hands into the chalk bag or bucket, spread the chalk evenly across your palms and fingers, then blow off excess particles. Avoid over-applying as too much chalk can reduce friction rather than improve it.

Yes, liquid chalk is ideal for gym climbing or competitions as it provides long-lasting coverage with minimal mess. However, it may dry out hands excessively if used frequently, making powder chalk better for regular climbs.
