Here's why I'm asking...

A friend of mine is seriously thinking of buying one ($5000) for his garage. I'm thinking a woodie is way better and way cheaper. Any thoughts? Personally, I've only ever been on a treadwall once and that was about 15 years ago.

SQ

get the treadwall, for shizzle.

He should buy several. Dozen.

A treadwall and woody serve different purposes, IMHO! I'd always build a woody because one, it's building something and building is cool, and two, they're sweet. Treadwalls are great if you plan on endurotraining for serious chuffing, but that's about it.

I am king of all things plastic.

Build a woodie and paint the dont tread on me flag on it........$2000. Im a big fan of painting your toys with ridiculous, and mildly offensive images.

If it is the kind that can invert then he should totally buy it. They have the capabilities to turn completely vertical giving you the ability to treadwall mad roof stylee.

The lager size with the invertable option (which I didn't know existed) would be great training for spurt clippin, but only if* your friend sacks up and only uses tiny holds and actually trains on the thing. Woodies are about 1000x more fun.

That's what she said!

Thanks for sharing!

i've always wanted to climb the wheels of a monster truck as it slowly rolls in either direction.

i could see this going poorly though.

Build a better version of this. That's my vote.
