Title: Unit E
Post by: Percy B on December 13, 2018, 09:35:37 pm

The new building at the Climbing Works is now open - its called Unit E. You can use it and all the other usual walls for the normal day rate. The new bit has a strength and conditioning gym, splatter board and hundreds of square metres of new bouldering wall. There is nothing easy - emphasis is on elite level training, so barring a few down-climbs, its all font 7a and harder. Problems in every style, apart from easy....!  :strongbench:

I really like it. It's definitely a different style to anything I've climbed on before. If Gogarth was a bouldering venue some of the problems would be good training for it. You'll have to check out the white/red in the cave to see what I mean. I think it's great training for real climbing outside.

My only issue is how hard the mats are. I hope they'll let you take your own mats in, though I can understand why that might not be allowed.  :please:
