Klino

Measure the land, make it last

Klino reads the hillside in a clean, quiet dial—grade made visible in your hand.

Field quiet

A line that drains, a path that holds

Precision you can pocket

Guesswork on slope leaves ruts, washouts, and work you’ll do twice. Klino replaces squint-and-hope with a clear, legible reading you can trust in the field. The compact body settles into a hand or hangs from a lanyard, ready the moment terrain turns. Trails built with intention start with numbers that hold up to weather and time.

Grades that endure

Sustainable trail doesn’t happen by feel alone. Klino turns contour and fall line into decisions you can defend—on site, with the crew, and with the seasons. One calm look through the dial, and the hillside tells you how to shape it.

For the ones who shape ground

Trail associations, land managers, and professional trail builders who need accurate grade in the field.

In the dirt

Sight along your planned line and read the dial to set climb, backslope, or drainage before you cut.
