Hey Climbers,

We're new here. Just a new small business out of Melbourne. We'd be appreciative if you could give us 2 minutes of your time on the topic below.

Personally, we are sick of sub-par climbing brushes that are uncomfortable, look like garbage, and all come out of the same factory in China. We want to design and create a new brush from scratch, and we want the help of the climbing community to do it.

What do you think would make a good feature in a brush (whatever it may be), that you've thought in the past would be a nice to have?

Thanks in advance!

Liam

Yeah finally.
Can you sell us a brush with the following attributes;
1. A retaining clip on one end.
2. An inbuilt bluetooth speaker to enhance my Spotify music.
3. A GPS locator to track my sends, including both times or attempts to do so,
and most importantly of all, 4. A loud piercing alarm that can’t be turned off if the brush is used in a sacred location or other place deemed out of bounds for environmental reasons, and if such said feature is tried to be overridden a taser-like shock is administered to the user?

Thanks for your consideration, and good luck with your project.

Ignore that guy. I'm wondering if a climbing brush might want to include a way to "puff" the chalk off the hold? If this was done well it might actually be a useful innovation and could also be useful when drilling bolts.

Long piece of clear plastic tube is fine for bolting. Having something connected to a brush is pointless for bolting unless that brush is a hole brush.

I still find Tek hard tooth brushes are perfect (harder to find, so I usually clear the store of stock when I find them). I haven't found one "climbing" brush provide any additional benefit...
