Bouldering technique sessions
Take this quiz:
1) How do you develop over-hanging jug haul endurance for those big roof routes?
2) Where can your friends all try the same move over and over and give each other some helpful beta?
3) Where can you improve your climbing technique?
The answer: Bouldering!
Come join your fellow ACC members and boulder. We'll have lots of fun trying out problems in the gym, play some bouldering games, and helping each other with some climbing technique hints. All ability levels are welcome and we'll have a very supportive atmosphere to help you improve your bouldering skills.
