Who's got the best hangboard?

Pretty self explanatory, let's see pics, and I know full walls are better, but they don't count.

I concede, you win, hand's down dude.

Yea man, that is actually scary. Sweet but scary.

I like how it's right next to your vitamins so you can inhale gucosamine while you train.

Inhale? I have an IV of it hanging just on the other side of the door...

I'll post mine as soon as I take down my inspirational posters which are all pictures of super-extra-double-top-secret big walls I want to climb. I think I can beat Mono's board by 2 or 3 OCD-inspired features. His angled pinches are pretty kick-ass though.

I could tell you, but then...

When I'm doing I-M 2 finger pockets, I hold them with the R-P fingers. I find it helps. Same for monos.

OK, here's my setup:

An overview:

Note the following features:
- eyebolts and pulleys for removing weight
- wood platform with four options for height
- foam rubber mat makes it easier to deal with the weights
- 2 fans
- satellite radio (a must-have for climbers)
- large stopwatch to time sets and reps
- chalk bag
- table and training log
- 200 lbs of plates (never used them all at once, but it's nice to have options)

Closeup of my boards:

Note:
- the board in the foreground has screw ons to create a "wide pinch" grip
- the rear has two bolt on 1/4 pad crimps
- eyebolts are positioned such that the pulley will be centered for removing weight
- I recently washed my boards with "basic H" a specialty cleaner and they feel like new, even though I've been using my Nicros (blue) board since '97.

My dehumidifier; which makes summer training possible where I live:

A digital thermometer/hygrometer (it measures humidity, b@$%&es!):

And finally, proof that it all works. Here's a half-pad crimp I ripped off my wall:

Sweet setup.

It's humid on the Wasatch Front?

I don't use it much, but it's a bitchen hangboard. I shaped this one out of a 9'1" Yates blank. I put a ton of concave under the nose so you can get all the way out there. Hanging 5 is no prob, and you can probably get 10 if you still have all your digits left.

DAMN!! I didn't even know that was possible! I better get some more weights.

Hey, I think it is really rude of you to post a picture of a dehumidifier in front of ALL THAT GEAR. couldn't you at least hung a sheet up or something?
