CAMPUS BOARD AND 30 DEGREE WALL

After a long non stop weekend the latest additions to the climbing centre are complete!!!




With only finishing touches of perfectionism to go the corner of the bouldering wall has been converted into a 30 degree board making a great addition to the range of angles already there.








In the vacant corner next to the fire door we have erected a campus board for all you training junkies and novices alike. It leans at 15 degrees with small, medium and large rungs. As with all aspects of climbing using the campus board can cause injuries (tendons beware) especially if not used properly. We'll post up some information about this in due course but if you want some info now then check out www.metoliusclimbing.com/ or try the training articles on http://www.planetfear.com/.

Bouldering wall over the holiday season

There will be some work being carried out to the bouldering wall over the holidays. We aim to keep disruption as low as possible but there will undoubtedly be some restrictions.

Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th will see at least the 45 board, vertical and barrel (basically that whole corner) closed off. We hope this will be ample time and if not keep an eye out on the blog for any change to this.

The work is aimed to improve the bouldering wall so please have patience with us whilst works are underway.

If you have any questions please email me at duncan-paterson@transition-extreme.com.


Cheers
