FAQ’S
What is the process if I have never climbed before? You will participate in a 15 minute induction given by one of our staff members. They will demonstrate the correct belaying technique and how to “tie in” to climb. After your induction you will be issued with a card which will entitle you to climb at Urban Ascent without any more training.
Do I have to be fit? No, not really. We have groups of people who are age 60+ come in and climb. It really is an activity for all ages and fitness levels. If you are looking to get fit then climbing is an excellent way to do so. It is a whole body work out. It exercises the core, legs, arms, even your fingers!
What should I wear? You should wear loose, non-restrictive clothing, such as track pants or shorts. If you do not wish to hire climbing shoes from Urban Ascent then your footwear should have a rubber sole.
What do I need to bring with me? Just yourself. All the gear you will need can be hired from Urban Ascent. We also have a snack bar with some good food to give you energy while you climb.
How old do I have to be? If you are under the age of 18 you will need to bring a parent or guardian with you on your first visit. You must also be over the age of 13 to belay adults. If you are 13 or under you may only belay others your own age. |
