Hangboard Prototyping

All I ever seem to be involved with in Janzen Gear is prototyping. Do not misunderstand me, I have a great time prototyping. It is very creative, experimental, different, and there are many challenges to be overcome. Yet, there is no money in prototyping alone. There must come production at some point.

The Janzen Gear hangboard is currently in it's second prototype design. Today I had the chance to screw it into the wall and try it. It is phenomenal! Why? What makes it so great?

It has features that no other commercially available hangboard has, at least as far as I know. Here is a teaser photo.

The third prototype and likely production model was designed today. It does not exist in wood yet. It will be built in the next few weeks.
