HOW TO BOULDER
New to bouldering? No problem! We’ll guide you through the basics, from understanding the grading system to getting started with your first climb.
What to climb
All holds of the same route, a “problem”, have the same color.
One Stripe on a Tag
Each problem has start holds, where you begin each climb. These are shown by the tags marked with numbers. If there is one stripe on the tag, you begin with one hand on that hold. This means that there will be two tags, one for each hand.
HOW TO
BOULDER
Two Stripes on a Tag
If there are two stripes on the tag, you start with both hands on the same hold.
4 Point Start
From level 4 and up, most problems have a “4-point start”, the start tags show where you should have your hands AND feet.
Where to finish
Both hands must make controlled contact with the last hold. This means you should be able to stay on the wall for at least 3 seconds with both hands in contact with the hold. Remember, your hands don't need to be gripping the hold—just touching it.
Boxes & walls
The black boxes are part of the wall and can always be used to grab and stand on. The wall itself can also be used, unless there is black tape blocking it off.
GRADING
The level of a boulder is indicated by the color and number of the tags.

TIPS
& TRICKS
What to bring
To make the most of your visit, wear flexible clothing like a sports outfit and bring a water bottle. If you don’t have climbing shoes, you can easily rent a pair from us. We also offer Chimpanzee Bars, Fritz Kola, coffee, tea, and other refreshments at the gym.
Start with easy problems
If you are new to bouldering or want to warm up, you can find plenty of level 1-3 problems in the training room by the entrance and on the left side of the upper floor.
Use Chalk
& Fingertape
Chalk improves your grip on the holds by absorbing moisture on your hands, while finger tape can prevent and treat minor skin injuries, as well as tendon and join pain/injuries. You can find both in our vending machine and shop.
Brush holds
for better friction
If a hold is very chalky and feels slippery, brush it to remove chalk. This improves the friction and makes the climbing easier.
Look for the Beta
The "beta" is the "solution" to how you climb a boulder. If a problem feels harder than the grade suggests, you might not have found the easiest beta yet.
Experiment with different approaches and moves, be creative, it’s all part of the fun! If you still find it difficult you can ask our staff or other climbers at the gym for help.
You can also find beta videos on Vertical Life, or upload your own.
Repeat Problems
This will help you improve your technique on the wall, and could allow you to find easier betas. You can also challenge yourself and try climbing the problem without using all the holds
