Dry Tooling at Transition Extreme this winter
Dry Tooling Evenings at Transition Extreme Sports Ltd. From 7th November on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 18:00 to 22:00
Over the winter we'll have routes set up outside on our Ropes Course for those of you looking to get some training in before and during the winter season.
If you're already a winter climber or into your dry tooling then this is for you! There's a registration form to complete and £5 admission to pay per evening. Existing memberships for the climbing wall are not valid.
Some routes will allow the use of crampons as well as axes as there's plenty of things to swing your axes at. Others are more suited for winter boots or rock shoes if you're that way inclined.
Throughout the evenings we'll have a member of the climbing team 'floorwalking' to answer any questions and do our 'keeping an eye on safety' thing.
No instruction on winter climbing will be available and no axes or crampons will be available for hire. There are a number of wee rules and guidelines which you can find on the registration form.
