Yes, very safe. Everyone new gets safety training. The equipment is inspected routinely.
Kids love to climb. Any kid who wants to climb can. We have easy walls for them.
You can bring your own gear if you have it, but we have everything you need in rentals.
Well, the first time you come to The Inner Wall, you will sign our insurance waiver, pay, get shoes and harness, receive a safety instruction where we show you how to use the ropes. You then can climb any wall you want.
It doesn't take a lot of strength to have fun at The Inner Wall. Over time, you will build more strength, also skill. (It also helps to eat your spinach).
The Inner Wall hides behind Rite-Aid (formerly Eckerd). Drive around back.
Most holds are made of plastic, some are clay, some are rock, some are wood.
The secret to good climbing is good footwork. Use your feet first, then your arms.
Just about anyone can do it. Just want to.
If a kid knows the proper belay technique, it is ok. We will teach kids from about 10-11 years old, depending on their maturity level. Belayers are anchored to the ground, so the disparity in weight doesn't matter.
Belaying is when someone holds the rope with a friction device to keep the climber safe.
No, you climb the walls. The ropes are for safety and lowering.
Yes. As a matter of fact, you can find it here. [PDF]
