The Wall is Up, the Routes are Set. It's Nearly Time to CLIMB!

The guys from Entreprises are working hard to get our wall finished, it is nearly there and is looking stupendous after a complete paint re-spray to sharpen the colours.

Our first route setter Steven Chadwick set from VB - V7+ in 5 colours and did a cracking job at making the centre come to life...finally there are climbs to play on!

Next up the first of our Guest Setters were the dream team Emma Twyford and Mike Goldthorp who powered through on flapjack and gluten free goodies to create a cracking Red Set V2 + see how high you can go! And a Black Set of V7+ trickies to get you working HARD.

Core Climbing Holds in Sheffield threw us a massive favour by producing extra holds for our sets in record timing, from order to our door in matter of days. Big Up Core Climbing!

Check out our setter profiles...

Name: Emma Twyford

Climbing Achievements: Trad - Onsighted E7

- Headpointed E9 (Rare Lichen)

Sport – Onsighted 8a

- Redpointed 8b+/c (Unjustified)

Boulder – Flashed V8+

- Worked V10 (The Lotus)

My Proudest Moment would have to be climbing 'Strawberries' or flashing 'Statement of Youth' because both routes have so much incredible history surrounding them.

My Dream Ticklist is never ending and always evolving.

A Funny Fact About Me is I once had my big toes described as Velociraptor claws by my physio!

Name: Steven Chadwick

Climbing Achievements: Trad - Onsighted E4

- Headpointed E5 aiming for one day climbing the 'Quarryman' and 'Gravediggers'.

Sport - Onsight 7B

My Proudest Moment was winning my category at the Army Climbing Championships, then going up to RATHO to compete at the British Indoor Climbing Championships in 2011 where I positioned 19th.

My Dream Climb is Walk of Life on the north coast of Devon - a big frightening slab.

I am the luckiest man ever as I got to turn my hobby into my job, building climbing walls for Entre-Prises.

A Funny Fact About Me is my physio says my knees shouldn't work and that i shouldn't be able to climb the way i do.
