The Big Rev Set.

Its been a while since Ive had a chance to update the blog as most of my time has been taken up with the centre as the Winter draws in and climbers are forced more and more into the indoor environment. In order to keep everyone psyched for when the warm weather returns Revolution has started a big clean of all the holds in the centre, over 3000 of them. Each individual hold is being pressure washed and all the walls are being re set with the clean holds.

Ive tried many different methods of cleaning holds over the last five years but by far the pressure washer doe's the job the best. So far we have cleaned and re set the whole of the 9m walls plus the huge five meter roof and cave area. The rest is due to be completed over the next week or two.

Not only this but the roof has seen a brand new set of problems being put up by both myself and Rob Hutton, our resident route setter. These range from the jug fest yellow route which although big will be sure to pump you out to our very technical Blue route. The routes across the ceiling range from 5c through to 7c so there really is something for everyone to go at. Not only this but the higher 9m walls have also been re set with grades from 3a through to 6c.

Ill update the blog as and when we the other walls are re set with our nice and shiny holds. In the meantime, let me know what you think of the problems and if you've got any idea's regarding what routes you'd like to see then feel free to either speak to me at the centre or drop me an email sam@revolutionclimbingcentre.co.uk

So, i know we live i one of the flattest areas in the whole of UK but here at Revolution, were make sure your still in good shape for when the warmer weather returns.

No excuses now, get down and crank hard!!
