Climbing again after some time. Getting acquainted with gym climbing has been good. Way different than outdoors, which is all I’d ever done previously. The nutty comp problems particularly! FA gyms are clean and friendly, been to HP, Avondale & block 37. Varied selection of difficulty and straightforward enough to get back into the vertical vibe. Seems like it’s probably a good community of climbers but it’s usually pretty sparse when I go..
Really fun bouldering gym — easily one of the best I’ve been to. The route setting is fantastic, with a ton of variety and plenty of technical problems that push you to focus on footwork, tension, and balance rather than just brute upper-body strength. The grades definitely lean on the tougher side, but it’s clear the setters know what they’re doing, and the climbs are both challenging and rewarding. Beyond the walls, the gym has everything you’d want for training: a moon board, campus rungs, a scatter board, and a well-equipped workout area to round out your session. The space itself feels fresh and modern, and the staff are super friendly and welcoming, which adds to the overall positive vibe. A great spot for both serious climbers and those looking to level up their skills.
First time coming to this gym location for First Ascent and was really impressed ! To start, there is not an official parking lot but a good amount of street parking in the area. Attached a picture on the front door on good places to park. The gym is very large, as there is 3 full alleys of bouldering and a small gym on the side. the locker rooms are large and there are plenty of free lockers to put your stuff in (they have padlocks on them). there is a wide range of beginner - intermediate and advanced climbs. the staff is friendly and helpful. the community at these gyms are welcoming, as i found it easy to talk to strangers about different routes and encourage eachother. the prices are fair and pretty standard. overall, a well rounded gym and will be coming back !
We came here as a group with some who already climb as a hobby and it was my first time. Kate at the front desk was friendly and professional and completed my forms and completed the intro with a video with information about climbing. After signing a waiver and getting Climbing shoes it was time to get ready. They have lockers to put away clothes and stuff not needed while climbing. They have an area to work out and it includes weights, treadmills, rowers, and more. They also offer group classes in one of the rooms. Finally, they have a good size place to climb, from easy to difficult and the climbing is leveled. We were there for about two hours and had fun climbing, if you have never done it, take it easy since you'll work out muscles all over your body. Free parking on the west side of the side street. Can sign up for a daily pass as well as monthly.
Une salle de bloc vraiment sympa — l’une des meilleures auxquelles j’ai eu la chance d’aller dans le monde. Plein de problèmes, et des réglages de voies ultra techniques — beaucoup de concentration sur le travail des pieds, le tensionnement, l’équilibre, plutôt que sur le simple haut du corps. Les cotations sont du côté sauvage, mais on peut vraiment dire que les ouvreurs de voies sont bons. Il y a aussi un moon board, un campus rung, un scatter board, une zone d’entraînement. Endroit sympa et nouveau, personnel sympathique. Grimpez !
