Indoor climbing walls
(this topic is closed to replies) | Start a New Topic | FAQ | Rules
I have a question about route setting on indoor walls. I have done very little indoor climbing because when I lived in the east I had the Gunks and now that I'm in the southwest I can climb practically 365 days a year. We now have a new community center with a fairly decent indoor climbing wall. It's been wonderful having it because now I can go after work and don't have to worry about daylight. The problem is that the kids that work with the wall don't have a lot of climbing experience and the routes that they've set up are crazy to say the least - they're all teenagers and have little outdoor experience. Can anyone recommend a good website or book for route design for indoor walls? Two sections of the wall have natural features, cracks and holes and good surface for smearing. The other sections are kind of slick plastic. I would like to get more involved with route design if they'll let me and I don't want to offend anyone. Maybe if I can show them some ideas.........
Thanks for the beta :)
