Getting started

Bouldering is rock climbing without the need for equipment like ropes and harness - but with safety mats (also known as crash pads) for you to drop off safely any time. Your aim is to finish short, but often trying problems (a route or order of moves) using strength, balance, technique, and brain power. Here are some basic & common lingo you’ll definitely hear in your time there: Beta - Specific instructions on how to tackle a route. Something like a cheat code! Crash pad - The thick mattress you'll fall on time after time. You'll get acquainted, don't worry. Flapper - True to its name, this is a flappy piece of skin you'll get on your fingers when you tear or slice it while climbing. Flash - When you successfully complete a route on your first try, perhaps with beta knowledge. Problems - Also known as a challenge or a route to climb. Problems are graded by difficulty with V0 being the easiest, and V8 being the most difficult.

If it’s your first visit, we need your help to fill in a waiver form. You can do it online before coming down, to save yourself some hassle! Come in comfortable, athletic clothing that allows you a wide range of movement. Shoes are available for rent on site for $5. Please do bring along your own pair of socks! You can otherwise buy a pair at $2. Last but not least, don’t be shy to tell our team at the front desk that it's your first time - they'd be delighted to show you around!

Kids are naturally interested in climbing, and it’s a great way for them explore their problem solving skills. However, for their safety, we do enforce a minimum age policy where only children 7 and up are allowed on the walls. For children under 12, we do ask your cooperation to keep an eye on them please :) If you're interested in having them explore the sport in a safe and structured manner, do consider our newly launched bouldering courses. Find more information here, or just enquire with our friendly staff at the gym!

Nope. Unplanned moments are the best kind. Peak hours are typically on weekends (all-day), lunch time and after 6pm on weekdays, if you’d like to try and work around those.
