The images below show how to make a funnel out of paper. This makes it easier to fill up your chalk ball with loose chalk without getting it all over you:

Is that one of those reusable chalk balls with a drawstring?
Where do you get those? I can only ever find the ones that are zip tied, and they’re too much effort to refill.
I just bought it at the local climbing store. Not sure what brand it is, but I’ll figure it out.
madrock sells them: http://store.madrockclimbing.com/3ozchalkball-1.aspx
Great, thanks!
