Yeti Strong 2 Oz Refillable Chalk Ball for Gymnastics, Climbing and Weight Lifting

It's chalk, and it's POWDERY. The bag is nice, but the chalk itself may not be. Still though, it does what it needs to do for me on all my main lifts (squat, bench, deadlift) and it works really well for rubbing on your back to get ready for squat. I have mind in a big plastic zippered food bag to contain all the powder at the gym. Still though, with this, be prepared for powder to get pretty much everywhere. And if your gym doesn't like that, or can't tolerate it, don't blame it on this product; I would say it's time to find a new gym.

Elastic broke within a couple days of use.

This chalk bag works wonderfully and has allowed me to grip my kettlebells much better than ever before. I used it for the first time today (3/24/15) and couldn't be more satisfied. The best part is the seams of the bag does not allow for too much chalk to escape which means that one squeeze will be more than enough to coat the palm of the hand instead of being more than what is needed and becoming wasted product. It may look cool to clap your hands and create a smokescreen, but the reality is that all that chalk floating in the air is wasted product that you won't get a chance to use. It doesn't seem like much, at first, but when your wallet is light, you'll reflect upon all those times where you, unnecessarily, wasted product. If you plan to use this as a weight lifting tool, then I suggest you also purchase a mountain climber chalk bag, to accompany it. You'll only need to stick your hand in the bag to squeeze the sock and reapply the chalk. On top of that, the bags are cheap and will save both chalk and money.The fact that it is refillable is an added bonus. This means that you can purchase bags of loose chalk to add to the sock as needed. Ultimately, I imagine that the sock will cease to be useful and will need to be replaced, though I do not expect this to happen for a long time. I'll update this review when it is time to replace the sock, in order to provide helpful information about the life of this product.

The chalk sock/bag itself works fine the chalk inself isn't the best for climbing. How ever it's alright for lifting in the gym. The chalk got a shorter duration then Black Diamond White Gold,and Frank Endo. Yeti Strong chalk also doesn't seem to provide as much grip as either of these.

I like that the chalk ball fits into my Black Diamond Mojo Chalk Bag Vapor Grey (size: Small / Medium) that I got for bouldering. That was the only thing I was worried about. Haven't had a chance to gauge how much I like the chalk yet so I'll update my review after hitting up a rock climbing gym.

No problems with pakaging or delivery. Not five stars because the refillable chalk bar is going to be tried as a mess-free way for my 18 year old son to apply Gold Bond powder. He is unable to apply the powder without making a huge mess. I read online that using this type of refillable bag works for applying without the mess.

Good buy if you prefer the even coat of chalk without the layering effect you get with loose chalk. It does waste a bit of chalk, but loose chalk is way cheaper than buying a bunch of chalk socks especially when a lot of climbing gyms do not allow loose chalk.

Larger than I was expecting, nice quality sock and chalk inside. I did cut the cinch on the sock in order to dump the chalk directly into the bag I keep on my climbing harness. This was because the sock was so large it barely fit in my chalk bag-I have enough chalk to fill my bag and share with friends.
