Application#: WO200507244Description: A magnetic climbing device that consists of a hand unit and a leg unit. The hand unit is designed for attachment to the hands of a climber and provides finger sections, thumb section, and a palm section. Each section utilizes pre-positioned magnets for attachment of the hand unit to a magnetic or ferromagnetic structure. Hand straps and fasteners are used to securely tighten the hand unit to each hand of the climber. The leg unit is designed for attachment to the legs of a climber and provides a planar member, a platform and base extension, straps and buckles. The planar member utilizes pre-positioned magnets sequentially aligned along the length of the planar member for attachment of the leg unit to a magnetic or ferromagnetic structure. A sleeve is used to cover the planar member and base extension to protect the leg of the climber and provide additional friction, if necessary.
