BoulderBall, the first combined training tool and game specifically made for climbers and enthusiasts, finger-dexterity training and climbing technique.
Inspired by climbers, the BoulderBall packs an ideal climb-training tool and fidgeting game into a small ball that can be brought along everywhere. The round structure of the BoulderBall is the canvas for ten different climbing routes, specifically designed for different skill levels and climbing techniques. The routes on the BoulderBall are all color coded and match a set of playing cards which serve as guides for the game.
