Excellent climbs! All of the staff are very nice! My girlfriend is a member and she takes me in on her guest pass once a month, perhaps when I have more time and don't have to travel for work so much I will join, myself.
Loved it!!! Great boulders, great walls, and great people!
The setting was superb and had a ton of variety with lots and lots of routes. Despite not being the biggest gym, the space was used perfectly and had so many different wall angles. Not only that, but there was great density of holds and routes which made the gym feel twice as big. Plenty of fun routes for beginners, some tricky slabs for the intermediate, and maxed out with a powerful v10 and a few v9s. Even had a tension board, dope campus board, and some chill sport routes. Everyone was super friendly, gave great beta, and I even managed to get a free sticker from the staff! Great place to visit, can’t wait to come back 🥳
Really cool gym! Had a great time climbing there during a trip to NYC. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Community is really friendly, supportive and diverse. Route-setting is really good, with a good variety of climbing styles. Their walls consist of many unique angles which offer tons of cool boulder problems. Good mix of classic and modern bouldering!
Really nice gym with fun route setting. The gym is in a basement and on the smaller side, but there's still plenty of walls to climb. There are also some weights in the middle and a small top rope section. The place is really clean and there are free chalk stations around. There are cubbies to put your stuff in and also combination lockers. Didn't see any showers, only 2 changing rooms and rest rooms. Probably to use as much space as possible for climbing. Most of the routes are below or around V5. There are not many harder climbs, which is fine if you're intermediate. It's also a bit pricey for a small gym ($33 for a day pass), but maybe I'm just used to Seattle pricing ($20)
We started climbing at Central Rock Gym six months ago. We knew my son would need one on one instruction and were fortunate enough to have connected with Josh Hodge. Josh has patiently and persistently supported both my son and myself in gaining the strength and skillset to over come obstacles that stand in our way. My son has a physical disability and Josh has gone out of his way, on his own time, to inquire about exercises that would help not only enhance his climbing, but his strength overall. Somehow he manages to challenge my son and make it fun! We have been very impressed with how professional and warm the staff at Central Rock have been and feel so lucky that we get to climb there!
