REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Thinner and stickier than regular tape

Comments about Metolius Climbing Tape:

Compared to regular athletic tape, this is thinner and stretchier (which I really like for wrapping around joints/fingers), and also stickier. Though I haven't tried this yet, I get the impression it'll stay on my fingers better since it won't come off as easily when bouldering. I plan on using this to cover sore spots before they become blisters, and to cover any minor cuts and scrapes. Giving it a 5/5 since it looks like it should do what I need when compared to regular athletic tape.

Comments about Metolius Climbing Tape:

Crack gloves will last half a season with this tape if done properly and I have yet to read a book that shows how to properly make gloves. The tape is easy to tear while wrapping and is much stickier than other tapes which is essential. Use to improve your crack climbing and can guarantee total finger pulley tendon protection if used correctly.

Comments about Metolius Climbing Tape:

This tape is better then you average tape. It sticks better and doesn't come off or roll over itself as easy as generic tape. I'll us this stuff over huge flappers and have no problem with climbing for another few hours.
