07 / FAQ

FAQ

Absolutely not, climbing is actually a really easy sport for people of all strength levels to get into. Leg and Core strength are just as important as upper body strength as well!

There are three types of climbing! Bouldering, speed and lead! Bouldering uses a short wall which does not require any safety gear! Lead requires safety gear and is often the most scary but most exciting! Speed is all about racing up the wall!

Recreational trainings are free and easy! Our captains would be setting up training regimes and open gym excursions are planned for! If you plan to join the competitive team, attendance for training would be more stringent.

Currently, we do not do outdoor climbs. However, our exco is able to provide guidance if you would like to give it a try!

The community is tight across the levels! We have plenty of bonding activities, camps and training sessions for all the batches to meet and interact.
