FAQs
What is the 'Intro to Belay' class?
The 'Intro to Belay' class is a 75-minute instructional course where expert instructors teach you essential skills such as knot tying, harness use, and belay techniques, preparing you to safely enjoy the climbing gym.
What equipment is provided?
Your deal includes a day pass with full equipment rental. This means you'll be provided with a harness, climbing shoes, and a belay device, so you have everything you need to climb.
Are there age restrictions for the class?
Yes, participants must be 13 years of age or older to take the 'Intro to Belay' class. This ensures everyone can safely learn and participate in the instruction.
What should I wear for indoor rock climbing?
We recommend wearing comfortable, athletic clothing that allows for easy movement. If you opt for shorts, longer shorts are suggested as the harness can cause shorter ones to ride up. All necessary climbing gear, like shoes and harnesses, will be available onsite.
Do I need to be in good physical shape to climb?
Not necessarily! Climbing gyms are designed with routes for a wide range of fitness levels. If you can climb a ladder, you generally have the foundational ability to enjoy indoor rock climbing. There are always challenges suitable for your comfort level.
What if I'm afraid of heights?
If you're concerned about heights, you can explore bouldering. This climbing style takes place on shorter walls, typically not exceeding 10-12 feet off the ground, and focuses more on horizontal movement, making it a great option to build confidence without harnesses or top-rope gear.

To reserve your class spot, you must book online at centralrockgym.com/buffalo/climbing/intro-belay-class/. Additionally, all participants are required to complete an online waiver beforehand at centralrockgym.com/waiver to ensure a smooth check-in process.
