A pretty scathing attack on the gym. Certainly the spinning holds are a nightmare. But on the whole "it's too slabby", "I don't get pumped" thing - it's a pretty darn good improvement for beginner/intermediate climbers who spend their whole life at Nuna nursing their forearms. If you like steep stuff, of course it won't be a replacement for Altona, Nuna, or Lactic. But if you don't like steep stuff, it finally provides a location with more than 3 appealing routes. |
