Back in 2009, Tom Randall and Pete Whittaker made it their mission to climb the world’s hardest offwidth cracks. They established 'the world's hardest offwidth,' Century Crack, and the name of 'The Wide Boyz' stuck.
Tom and Pete have since gone on to establish and repeat many of the world's hardest crack climbs in all different widths, sizes, lengths, and brutalities, gaining great knowledge and experience in this form of climbing.
The idea of a Wide Boyz business grew from the crack climbing courses that Tom and Pete ran at indoor walls to pass on their crack climbing knowledge. Since then, they have been on a mission to bring the art and enjoyment of crack climbing into the indoor world of modern climbing gyms!
Soft grip on the volumes has been invented to minimize pain and maximize one's time for jamming practice. The volume surface has a blend of materials that are cushioned to prevent pressure wounds, soft against the skin to stop abrasion, yet grippy for perfect jamming friction. They won't feel a jam quite like this one anywhere else in the world.
