Has anybody climbed on Iceholdz artificial ice?

How many hits with a pick can they take before replacement?

Yes. I sold all mine last year except for the stalactites, they just get too chewed up...

Supposedly, you can use a heat gun to melt the plastic back down to "recycle" the hold.

We have a few in the gym, they seem to hold up pretty well. Not a very realistic 'ice' experience, however.

I literally just got some, the thing I was surprised by was how hard to have to swing. Also since you have to swing so hard I makes for a really loud training session on the home wall.

But I do like them so far. Im curious how long they last as well.
