"Geckos" for climbers

Rock and mountain climbing equipment makes use of materials with the texture and qualities of a gecko's toe pads. These lizards are renowned for their ability to hold on to and traverse surfaces vertically or even upside down. They are effective on walls, ceilings, glass or any other smooth surface. With the application of nano-material to special boots and gloves, humans can also grip any surface which makes many extreme sports and other types of entertainment safer and more widely accessible.
