STORY BEHIND THE WALLS
Whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned pro, come join us in exploring new moves and sharing our passion for climbing.
Our goal was to create bouldering walls that embody the modern style of climbing.
We've meticulously prepared four walls with a unique, custom setup of holds, each with its own identity and climbing experience. From thebalance-centric slab wall to the 35-degree wall that will drain even the most seasoned climbers, our walls offer a range of challenges. Preparing these walls was a challenging adventure.
The Gneis Wall is specially developed by some of the most skilled professionals in their respective fields. The
climbing holds are produced by Cheeta led by Laurent Laporte. Laurent Laporte is a highly experienced French
route setter and hold maker with over 30 years of experience in the industry. He is known as one of the first
international route setters and has invented movement sequences such as "The Clock" and screw-on holds.
Adam Pustelnik is the head of route setting for the Gneis Wall, known for his expertise and extensive experience in
designing challenging routes. He was the Chief Routesetter for Lead at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and is a prominent figure in the climbing world.

SETTING UP THE WALLS
The bouldering wall consists of 12 (1210x1210mm) panels and 4 kickboard panels with pre-drilled T-nut grid and LED lights. Climbing hold outlines on panels indicate position and rotation, while unique numbers on holds and panels ensure proper placement. Hold-on-hold system utilizes multiple numbers in outlines. All walls are 4x3 plates with varying fallzone dimensions. IKEA-style drawings guide frame construction using locally sourced components, reducing shipping. Matting can be obtained from local suppliers.
