Works great!
Stayed on my hands even in a running/KB wod. Basically didn't need to reapply for the whole workout. Absolutely love this.
Just gave the new formula a go for my first indoor session since lockdown.
Background with product: Have tried both the alcohol and non-alcohol versions outdoor. Purchased both after the start of lockdown and have been using them both pretty regularly for outdoor sessions supplemented by loose chalk on the wall. I haven't tried any other brands of liquid chalk. My personal preference is the alcohol formula.
Gym protocol: No loose chalk. Liquid chalk or chalk balls only.
First impressions: The formula is a bit more liquid than the other formulas. I think I like the thicker alcohol formula but maybe it just takes some getting used to. The smell isn't super strong like the alcohol version either. Dries pretty quickly with a little hand waving then off you go.
On the wall: My gym has shorter 30-40ft walls. As I was warming up, the chalk held up and I didn't feel the need to rechalk during the climbs. Grip was pretty good, though halfway up the wall on my max grade, things started getting a little greasy. Whether this is from my own chalk wearing off or from other folks leaving a greasy feel on the holds (or a combination of the two), I couldn't tell you. Fortunately, I've got my chalk ball handy and was able to reapply and move on.
Session impressions: After my first few climbs, I realized that I didn't need to apply quite as much once I had a good base layer going on. Much different from outdoor when you're not exactly moving from climb to climb...you end up fiddling with your gear and what not and a full application is needed at the next climb. At the gym, just a little reapplication did the trick with awareness that I had a chalk ball for backup.
Overall, I was happy with the product. Worked as expected or possibly better. This has been my first experience with liquid chalk in the gym and will certainly be a part of my future sessions.
Secret Stuff Hygienic - 80% Alcohol Liquid Chalk
Before climbing gyms closed I really preferred the alcohol free secret stuff, great chalk didn’t dry out my hands. In the spirit of being a good citizen I went with the hygienic high alcohol secret stuff. It doesn’t dry my skin nearly as much as I thought, keeps my hands dry and lasts past my warm up with one application. All in all thumbs up!
