Even though I had to wait about 20 minutes to get help to pay for day pass cause instructor was doing a private session everything else was good. I recommend all locations for training. Especially on rainy days
Front desk staff isnt cool at all. Everytime ive been there they have been rude, I get if your having a bad but i feel like it is seriously an issue everytime. Please fix your staffs attitude so that we can all have a better climbing experience. The staffs attitude makes me avoid this gym, went back today to try it out and once again the attitude still hasnt changed. Pretty sure the girl I had a bad interaction with today is a worker named Yasmin (not sure though) ….. honestly it sucks because gym is pretty fun…..
The greatest choice I’ve made is to try rock climbing this year. I have loved every session I’ve had, every time I come here I feel peace. I can enjoy focusing my effort on a boulder or belay or I can meet people and try hard stuff together. It’s incredible how everyone can be so open and kind, whilst being so skilled in everything they attempt. I’m glad to be a member and I hope others try rock climbing at least once! Shoutout to the best gym in SoCal 🙌
Clean location, helpful staff, and a wide variety of climbing choices. I was impressed!I am not physically able to participate in climbing due to an old injury, but taking my son and his friends made for a fun time for them. They definitely want to return. The auto-belay climbs, top lines and bouldering walls were their favorites.
Staff person was very kind and helpful. There are plenty of auto belay stations for those of us into that. The place is fairly huge with a good variety of routes for every skill level. Membership prices were good though that may have been part of a holiday sale. Check it out, have fun!
