Abstract
A capacitive sensing climbing hold includes at least one polymer matrix and an anchor point provided in the polymer matrix, the anchor point being configured for attaching the climbing hold to a climbing wall and for transmitting a capacitive contact to a capacitive sensing unit. The polymer matrix includes a carbon powder so that the carbon powder represents between 5% and 35% of the weight of the polymer matrix, preferably between 10% and 35% of the weight of the polymer matrix, the carbon powder being substantially evenly distributed in the polymer matrix.
