Performance, Durability, Style
Sup’r is the creation of Gautier Supper and Thibault Toussaint, who have been climbing for over 30 years. Gautier is a renowned World Cup winner from France who starred on the international circuit for over a decade. He has coached the national team of China and is also a seasoned routesetter. Gautier’s business partner, Thibault, is an entrepreneur and artist who has traveled extensively and worked in businesses across four continents. The duo share a passion for climbing and a desire to share this passion with the world.
The brand was eponymously named Supper when it began in 2017, and it wasn’t long before the grips were being featured at several World Cups. Last year, the company was rebranded to Sup’r. (In French, “supper” is pronounced “super”, but either way you pronounce Sup’r is completely acceptable.)
Gautier and Thibault started with a simple idea: to design innovative holds that combine performance, durability and style. In the last 6 months, Sup’r has launched almost 300 new holds, 83 fiberglass macros, and hundreds of wood volumes. These shapes are only the beginning. Gautier and Thibault constantly strive to expand their ranges in order to meet the diverse and evolving needs of climbers. They enjoy working with routesetters, gym owners and climbers to grow the community and tap into new ideas for interesting shapes and styles that will challenge professional climbers and beginners.
A Way of Life
Despite launching only a handful of years ago, Sup’r has already been present at numerous national and international competitions globally. If you haven’t seen or tried Sup’r holds at your gym, you will be able to see them on the climbing walls at this year’s World Cups and at the World Championships in Bern.
Gautier and Thibault believe that climbing is not just a sport or a hobby but a way of life. “We plan to do more than offer high-quality holds,” Gautier explained. “We are excited about continuing to innovate in an industry that has given us so much.”
The Eclipse range
Our ranges are characterized by this geometric outline which leaves a very visual design. It is our intention to combine the design of a boulder or a route for its attractive and visual side with various shapes.
The whole concept allows setters to enjoy themselves visually while being able to play with a multitude of grips. Now it’s even more fun to play with the dual texture, while focusing on a precise dual and thinking for climbing not only design.
The Eclipse range is composed of 31 macros from 8 to 90 cm, different types of sizes, grips, designs.
