Sport Climbing

Indoor Sport Climbing uses artificially constructed climbing walls with grips for hands and feet often removable. Sport Climbing is a form of rock climbing that has fixed anchors and removable holds of all shapes and sizes. The fixed bolts are used for belaying and safety and floor crash padding is commonplace.
