Climbing Walls
WHAT IS CLIMBING WALL?
A climbing wall is an artificially constructed wall with grips for hands and feet, usually used for indoor climbing, but sometimes located outdoors. Some are brick or wooden constructions, but on most modern walls, the material most often used is a thick multiplex board with holes drilled into it. Recently, manufactured steel and aluminum have also been used. The wall may have places to attach belay ropes, but may also be used to practice lead climbing or bouldering.
Cadence are one of the leading suppliers of Climbing Walls and Bouldering Walls. Both are a fantastic addition to any indoor adventure park, Trampoline Park or leisure centre where there is a desire or need to expand adventure activities, offering a safe versatile attraction for all the family. Since the announcement that climbing will become an Olympic sport we have seen the interest in both fun climbing and bouldering increase drastically on a global scale. Airparx climbing installations make magnificent use of the floor space available, taking advantage of the height of buildings as well as wall area.
