Classic H.I.T. Strip™ Training System - TDU
Hypergravity Isolation Training (H.I.T.) is possibly the most effective method for training maximum finger strength. Developed by NICROS' training expert Eric HÖrst, H.I.T. involves high-intensity (weight added to your body simulates "hypergravity") climbing on identical H.I.T. Strips™ mounted on a 45° to 50° overhanging wall. The H.I.T. Strips™ facilitate targeted training of all the important grip positions: closed crimp, open crimp, open hand, pocket, and pinch. The results are rapid and unmistakable. H.I.T. workouts are appropriate for intermediate and advanced climbers with no recent history of injury. NICROS Classic H.I.T. Strip™ System includes five strips and eight pinches while NICROS H.I.T. Strip™ System includes four strips and six pinches. Both systems include a workout program that should be cycled on and off every few weeks. Please Note: The H.I.T. Strip™ System pictured has been colored solid light blue so that you can better see all of the features, divots, etc. on them. The actual color will be the same base blue with blue, purple, and black swirls.

Croc Blok - TK
This board has a very special feature in that it is reversible. All of the rails, pockets, and surfaces have been designed so the board can be flipped 180 degrees and have different usable features. There are two different versions of this hangboard. This version of the board is no-tex where the jug is super skin-friendly but the sloper leads to finger-strength independent of friction reliance. No-tex will help core strength because the lack of texture will not allow for body movement or swinging. Since there is no texture, you must focus on your core to keep you on the board. This version will lead to shorter, more intense training session because you are working on your finger strength but the friction is greater.
