"Thanks to Dwayne for putting his expertise into this project & finding High Performance Climbing Walls & thanks to Geoff & your crew for building an amazing structure with so little hassle. This has really been the easiest part of the whole construction here & very much appreciated!" - Gwen Cowan, Finance Director - Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary.

What a climbing wall can do for your community centre: |
- Fitness trends change and indoor climbing is a great life-long activity that allows people of different skill levels to participate together.More customers will check out the hot new addition to your facility.
- Convert unused spaces into an exciting new fitness experience.
- Finally - an activity that is great for men and women, boys and girls, all ages, and all fitness levels. Boys and girls, men and woman can all climb together – without compromising their individual level of challenge. It is truly an activity that can be developed and refined easily throughout one’s life.
- Tired of the looking at your raquetball court not being used? Convert it to a climbing gym!
- An opportunity to add new programs which incorporate climbing.
- Climbing fosters goal-building, mental focus, and a spirit of trust.
- Climbing requires an excellent combination of strength (especially upper body), flexibility, and problem-solving skills.
- Climbing is a non-violent, non-contact sport.
- Different sized people can climb together – the size discrepancy is not an issue.
- Personal equipment needs are minimal and can be easily rented on-site.
- Climbing does not require the massive group organization associated with playing team sports.
- Climbing offers a simple challenge with few complex rules
- Improves self-esteem
- Offers a safe environment to develop responsibility while belaying and spotting others
- Great for kids who shy away from team sports
- Provides an exciting opportunity for after school programs
- Climbing on artificial walls develops the same skills that are used for climbing outdoors, and therefore has an open-ended opportunity to learn new skills.
- Climbing on rock-walls has an excellent safety record in North America, with far fewer injuries recorded than most contact and outdoor sports. Check out these links:

Wall Types:
- Textured Plywood Roped Climbing Wall: engineered and built using a timber or steel frame. This is the most cost efficient - and most favoured for commercial operations. Generally best suited for indoor use. A variety of finished texture options are available. See Projects Page for examples.
- Composite Panel System: great for showpiece locations and outdoor use. The panels are made of quality composite materials, and are resistant to rain, frost, snow, wind, and UV rays.
- Traverse Wall, or Bouldering Wall: Such walls are low enough that no ropes are required and pads protect spills and falls.
Mats:
-
Bouldering/ Traverse Wall Mats: These are custom measured and made. The only mats on the market worth landing on. Especially useful for highly-featured, non-vertical walls. These can be ordered/ installled to easily fold-up and cover the wall. Lock-able. "STOP - NO CLIMBING" type signs available - if requested.

This traverse wall is at the Mount Pearl YMCA in St. John's, Newfoundland. It was built using local labour and materials. These pads also fold up to close off the wall, and a locking mat system with signage prevent unauthorized usage. |

The Citywall 3-D Panel System can bedesigned specifically to meet customers' needs. |

Citywall Stalactites are lightweight, easy to install, and can accommodate holds bolted onto the surface. A great way to add another dimension to steep surfaces, or roofs. |
