UPDATE 4/5/22:  Yaniro Holds, Set C, and Set D, and now E are sale pending    Sets A, B, and F are still available

I am selling most of my climbing holds that I have held, nurtured, and fondled for many years.  Many are vintage holds, made by the best companies of the 80's 90"s.  The entire selection should be worthy of equipping a medium sized home climbing wall

I've broken up these holds into 7 sets. Except for the Yaniro set, ALL the sets have at least 50 holds.  all the sets cost $250, or $5/hold.  buyer pays shipping.   the sets, except for the yaniro, weigh about 50 pounds each.  some holds have minor cosmetic flaws along the edges, but does not affect where you grab the holds, however, because of this, I would say these holds are not suitable for use in a public gym setting.

Set 1 - The Tony Yaniro Set - These 28 holds(one not pictured) are the opus of Tony Yaniro.  These are possibly the best training holds ever made, especially for building finger strength in pockets.  It is not a full set of yaniro holds, but is more like the best of the best, and features 9 bi-doigt(2 finger) pockets.  Texture is smooth for hours of fun.  This is a special once in a lifetime buy, and the holds in this set are priced as such.

sets A-F all together

Set A - The Australian Set - Features some bright an fun holds made by an Australian company

Set B - Ken Yeager Woodie Set. Features a set of wood holds made by Mr Facelft, Ken Yeager. 

Set C - Radholds 2nd G Set  Radholds was one of the first climbing hold manufacturers, and their designs still rock today.  I even had a set of fun holds I designed that they made and distributed. 

Set D -Radholds 1st G Set. Some old timers are going to flip out at these beauties.  Again, rare old school classics that deserve a nice home.  

Set E - You name it Set - just a nice mix of holds

Set F - DPO's - If yo don't already know what a DPO is, chances are you never will, but they refer to these large pointy shaped jugs that make for great arm wrestling.  If you actually buy them, I will tell you what DPO stands for.

All 7 sets for $1500

Forgive my ignorance, but I am unfamiliar with the Yaniro holds. Is this a company he owned? I am a fan of Tony, and am curious to know more about that set.

Camden, I don't know if yaniro had a company as much as he made the holds and then sold them on the road.  These holds are first generation, made out of the more durable material...the second generation holds had a softer material, and they were prone to "grooving" , or rope wear.  at one point tony was driving his winnebago, took a turn too fast, and all the molds fell off and got ruined.  tony, a stubborn individual for sure, went right back to work and made a whole set of molds again.  u can always call me for more info.  two zero nine-nine eight eight, nine zero four four.  take care, steve
