Hereโs a quick look at what itโs like to climb our wall. Our wall is set up to be accessible to every climber no matter their skill level. Thereโs something that will give everyone a challenge. Thatโs something weโre all about. We want to challenge you to push past what you think you can accomplish. We know that you can get to the other side and come out better for it! Hereโs to new challenges in 2024!
Itโs never too early to book our wall for your event or party. Book now so you can secure your date!
@kiltergrips continues to surprise me! Every wall in the studio is adjustable, not just the two Kilterboards, but the two 12 x 12 bouldering walls as well as the massive 12 x 16 wall that was set up with a bunch of slab problems. I have to say that my favorite wall was the 10 by 12 Kilterboard with the Homewall set up. It felt more like climbing outside as opposed to the more acrobatic style of the normal @kilterboard set up. Beyond the Kilterboards themselves, Kilter has a wild amount of hold shapes and can outfit the entire gym. They also have a setting institute where we can learn how to set better and how to prepare for our opening set. Kilter is quickly becoming a one stop shop for climbing gyms and itโs really amazing to experience. Weโre really grateful for the chance to climb at the Kilter Studio.
What a year it's been! We want to say thank you to everyone who helped make this year what it was. We had so many events this year it's kinda wild to think about. We got to establish a handful of really cool relationships that will lead to some really awesome things in the next year and we're ready for the next step! We love our wall and are so grateful to everyone who booked with us this year and we're looking forward to continuing to be your curators of adventure! Happy New Year!
We got to try out the @kilterboard for the first time during our visit to @northmassboulder. This thing is such an incredible tool. It gives you a wild amount of adaptability to improve your strength and climbing technique! You can turn a decent V4 into a nearly impossible V-HARD at a 40+ degree overhung angle! We love the that the 100,000+ problems on the app are all created by and for the community. Some of the grades might be off a little bit, but Iโm sure that there are updates coming that will help with all of that.
Another really useful thing that we havenโt experienced before, is the light up holds that tell you where to go. I know that the Moon Board and Tension Boards have lights also, but @kilterboard took it up a level with the integration of the light into the hold itself. Just a wild thing to do in our opinion. It definitely doesnโt leave any questions as to what holds are next.
This is definitely a tool that we will have in our gym. We want to produce absolute crushers! This board along with a really comprehensive workout area and weโll find some future Olympians!
We decided that we would start visiting other gyms to get a feel for what everyone in our region is doing and get an even better idea of what we can incorporate into our gym once itโs built.
We started this process at @northmassboulder.
Our first impression walking in is that itโs a big, open, and aesthetic space, inviting you into explore. Over all an impressive site that will definitely get you stoked to climb.
After a brief orientation, we were ready and set to climb. The boulders are stunning, but we feel the comp setting is a bit excessive with large macro holds and volumes on almost every problem. While thereโs nothing wrong with this, itโs not really a varied climbing experience from boulder to boulder. We enjoyed the interesting moves, but prefer a balance between competition style and traditional setting for a more well-rounded experience. For us, we want to have a balance between the comp style and more traditional setting. We do like the big moves and flashy volumes, but we also know the value of having a solid base of fundamental setting.
We LOVED the training area! They have an abundance of machines, free weights and cardio equipment that youโll likely not have to wait for any particular thing. Definitely set up well to push heavy weights around to complement your climbing. Itโs like you get a regular fitness/powerlifting/bodybuilding gym alongside your climbing gym. We really enjoyed the @kilterboard the most, but really loved the verity of training boards available alongside a generous spray wall, and campus board.
The non climbing amenities were really something else! Thereโs a wonderful cafe with real food and bar, a co-working space for all of you remote workers, free rentable conference rooms with everything you could need, saunas, yoga, trainers, classes, really just about everything you could want or need. We were really impressed with the locker rooms and the free day use lockers. It was all clean and easy to use. Definite
Over the last 8 years we've perfected our set up. We've learned a lot about effective crowd control and how to keep everyone in line and have a fair amount of time on the wall.
Our setup really allows us to flow with any number of people that want to climb plus it just looks awesome! We usually allow ourselves 30 minutes to set up so we can take out time and be sure everything is safe and ready for climbers.
Sharing climbing with our city is something we are very passionate about. Book our climbing wall today for your next event and let us be the curators of your adventure!

Who else is getting ready for sending season? Got to get rid of this gut! It's been smaller and bigger in my life, but not it's time to go!
Discipline over motivation. Motivation can only get you so far, it ebs and flows and always changes. Motivation isn't a bad thing, but you need discipline to carry you through the difficulty of staying consistent. Honestly, in the past, it's the one thing I never let take hold long term. I'm slowly changing that motivation into discipline and constantly reminding myself that I have goals and they are important. Usually before I begin my workout I write some motivation on our whiteboard to remind me to keep pushing and create that discipline. This is from today's workout.
Here's a preview of my run, hangboard and abs workout.
