I have been route setting for about 7 years and it’s something I absolutely love. It’s both creative and physical and much like a drawing, it’s my way of interacting with the unsuspecting public!
My setting is split between commercial work for climbing walls and competition setting for events. I have regularly route set for the following:
Commercial
The Edge Climbing Centre, Sheffield
Alter Rock, Derby
The Castle Climbing Wall, London
Mile End Climbing Wall, London
Competition
British Lead Climbing Champs
GB Junior Team Trials
BMC Youth Open Comps
BMC Lead Ladder Final
BMC Youth Climbing Series
Southern Indoor Bouldering League
You forgot the climbing station!
Good point…. I don’t think I owned that wall when I set this blog up!
At the trailer to Wide Boyz 2 is a great finger crack in a climbing gym. Are the volumes bought or self made. I am searching good crack holds for our gym in Hamburg/Germany. My contact: thomas_duermeier AT web dot de
