Visited Gravity today. Its incredible, absolutely massive, cavernous really. Huge variety of angle and lots of beautiful little details such as tapering undercut running across the change of angle in the slab and walls with multiple triangular platforms. When I think of the time that was spend bouldering on the steep board in UCD, it seems a bit ridiculous. Those days are over now though.
I hope that Gravity will turn into bouldering HQ and it will be a great place for climbers to climb and socalise. It feels more like a bouldering venue rather than a wall, the potential is great problems is staggering. Its also really tall so it going to suit climber looking to get a stamina edge as well.
The purpose of the visit was to talk to Angela and get some information for an article in the Sunday Business Post, they sent out a photographer and we got some savagely cheesy staged photos.
I haven't been to a climbing wall for just over 2 years but I had no hesitation joining up there and then. See you there.
I took a video to show what I'm talking about.
Thanks Dave, glad you enjoyed it- see you again soon!
ReplyDeleteThis wall looks awesome, I'll have to take a drive down some day I'm off. Now we just need to get a wall like this or better up north, I'd say within easy walking distance of my house thank you very much ;)
