Uprising

My son and I came here for the 1st time today and had the best time. The staff are friendly and helpful. We could have stayed all day. They also accept the hapai card. The other climbers were friendly and helpful too. And they make a yummy brownie. We'll definitely come back again!

Nice gym! Majority of problems seems slab by or overhang. Interesting route setting.nnNice training area as well with the usual equipment several hang boards Beast Master 1000 and 2000, weights, chinup bar etc.nnStaff were really friendly and accommodating!nnSt

Overall I was really impressed with this gym. I wasn’t sure what to expect coming from the US, but the setting was excellent and everyone was extremely nice and friendly. The gym itself was very clean and nice. If I’m ever in Christchurch again, I will definitely come back!!

Having climbed here 2 years now, this place definitely deserves a great review. The facility is well designed with the main bouldering area having a comprehensive variety of climbing sets that get regularly rotated out with fresh ones by the route setters. There's a gym, plenty of hangboards, additional training area, spray wall, moonboard, circuit board, yoga space, cafe and even a fun climbing play area for kids called blocland. The cafe sitting area is up a flight of stairs that overlook the climbs and an adequate selection of food and beverages. Toilets are clean and personal storage cubbies aplenty.. although they can definitely be full up on busy days. I guess you can see all this details in a couple of pictures but what you can't experience without being there yourself is the friendly and accommodating staff and the very encouranging and welcoming community of regular climbers that just makes this a top locale. Closing at 10pm is a boon for many with family commitments after regular work hours.

Awesome climbing wall, plenty to at for every level and grades felt reasonable. Absolutely covers all wall angles, nice vibes, nice cafe and upstairs tables and couch area to rest and snack. Aside from the standard setting walls covered in other reviews, you also get a 2017 Moonboard some holds could be tweaked and re-aligned, tons of fingerboards, slightly overhanging woodie, big circuit board and a well-equipped gym, oh and how could I forget those dairy-free chocolate peanut butter slices! difficult for a lactose intolerant person to get good snacks at a wall sometimes, that stuff was really next level, congrats!nwould definitely recommend a visit
