We're currently working on acquiring funding. It takes a lot to make a world class gym, but we're pursuing as many avenues as we can to make it happen.
Climbing in Austin is growing rapidly, and we want to give the talent here the home it deserves. We also want to cater to the pro community in the Midwest, and Austin is perfectly located for that.
We're currently looking at multiple locations for the gym. We want to maximize our impact on local businesses and make ease of travel as easy as possible without further contributing to the gentrification of East Austin.
The timeline for opening depends entirely on construction. We don't know an exact date yet, but we know we want it to be soon!
While we love the gyms here, we believe there's some room for improvement, like the lack of speed walls, tall sport walls, technical bouldering, etc. We will improve upon Austin gyms, not replace them.
