⚡ At a Glance
  • Grip Performance: Adaptable grip for climbing and lifting, crumbles easily to produce fine powder while leaving less residue on skin and equipment
  • Best for: Climbers, boulderers, gymnasts and weightlifters who need compact, hygienic chalk
  • Not ideal for: Groups or events that require large volumes of chalk for extended communal use

A 56 g solid chalk block designed to be broken down into powder for application. Dimensions are 9 × 9 × 4.5 cm, making it pocket-friendly and suitable for chalk bags.


Secure, confident holds - with an easily crumbled block

Block form breaks down or pulverises into a fine powder that increases surface coverage on skin and climbing holds. The crumbly structure makes quick top-ups simple and controllable.

Firm adhesion to skin reduces slipping on bars and crimps, helping maintain control during dynamic moves and heavy lifts.

Cleaner training sessions - with a low-residue finish

Formula and block consistency produce less loose dust compared with some loose chalks, so less residue transfers to equipment. Reduced dust helps keep shared areas tidier.

Hygienic, low-residue performance suits halls and communal areas where keeping equipment cleaner is a priority.

Pocket-sized and long-lasting - with compact 56 g construction

Compact dimensions (9 × 9 × 4.5 cm) and 56 g weight make the block easy to carry in pockets or chalk bags. Solid form avoids spillage and extends usable life through controlled use.

Portable for sessions outdoors or at the gym, and durable enough to last multiple training sessions, even under intensive use.
