Routesetting
The wall aims for variety, creating areas that are easier for beginners as well as areas that are more challenging for experienced climbers. The team tests every new route itself before it goes live.
- Reset frequency
- weekly
- Schedule
- New routes are set every week, with boulders on an 8-week cycle and rope walls on a 12-week cycle. Setting takes place on weekdays between 9:30am and 4:30pm to minimise disruption to customers, and a monthly calendar shows which areas are being reset on which date.
- Circuit lifespan
- 8 weeks
- Full reset cycle
- Boulders every 8 weeks, rope walls every 12 weeks

- In-house
How they grade
- Roped routes
- French sport (6a, 7c+)
Rope routes are listed as grades 3 to 8b. A new route carries a provisional grade on a yellow card at the base of the line; climbers leave feedback in notebooks, and after a trial period the grade is adjusted and replaced with a permanent white card.
