Volumes - Fiberglass

 

Reinvent Climbing Terrain 

The best way to change up the angles of your climbing wall, whether a 20,000 square foot commercial gym, or basement home wall, is to add features with bolt-on modular options, called “volume” holds.  Volumes can add entirely new three-dimensional climbing surfaces to otherwise simple wall designs – they can make climbing movement on slabs and vertical walls more interesting and varied, and steep climbing more dynamic and exciting.  And they are cost-effective and relatively simple to attach.  To meet the demand for climbing walls these options, we have developed both plywood and fiberglass volumes. 

Geodesic Shapes

Our plywood volumes, or “Geodesic Shapes,” are computer cut with laser precision to create smooth seams at the joints, and they have tapered edges so the back of the volume meets a flat wall surface easily.  We have developed seven different Geo shapes designed to give climbers the same experience of climbing on a framed system without the expense or hassle of building a framed wall. 

 After cutting, joining the angles, and sanding, our plywood volumes are typically covered with an acrylic texture coating.  We can also custom finish volumes in specific paint texture color, or our gym rock texture, to match your existing walls.  These shapes are fixed to the wall with screws in pre-drilled and countersunk holes, for easy attachment.  See the complete selection of Geo shapes further down the page or click here to purchase online.

 Fiberglass Volumes

In addition, we have developed the biggest fiberglass volumes available in the US!  Read below to check out the newly released volumes - “Le Boob” and “The Growth.”  Contact us if you have any questions about installing volumes or which types would work best.  If you’re interested in multiple volumes for a gym or a quote on ship costs, just let us know!

 

Le Boob 

Price: $525.00 (climbing gyms call for pricing)

Optional Mounting Plate $95.00

"Le Boob" is our first fiberglass volume, with a bulbous round shape that will allow you to significantly alter the way your climbing walls look and climb.  The shape itself is over 3.5 feet in diameter and nearly as tall, with over a dozen t-nut placements and an outer flange with 5 bolt-holes for attachment.  It will allow you to create a fun obstacle on vertical or slightly overhanging terrain, adding variety to the type of climbing and number of moves on your routes.  Put this massive volume on an overhang, and you'll easily be able to create fun dynamic moves that will really excite the climbers in the gym!

 

Developed in conjunction with one of our biggest recent commercial climbing wall projects, Movement Climbing and Fitness, “Le Boob” concept was designed by Mike Moelter, and shaped by Mike Auldridge.

The Growth

Price: $525.00 (climbing gyms call for pricing)

"The Growth" is unlike any object you have ever seen before! This shape has numerous intricate artistic features that will make it amazing to climb on.  The Growth is 41” long x48” wide x13” high with a relatively low profile away from the wall, The Growth also has numerous t-nut placement options for modular handholds.  The Growth has a unique design, both organic and futuristic. 

We developed The Growth in partnership with So iLL Holds and artist/shaper/climber Jason Kehl aka Cryptochild.  Urban Climber Magazine’s November 2009 Issue has a great profile of Jason carving this monster feature.  Check out the close-up view and see the detailed imprints of the Rockwerx, So iLL, and Cryptochild logos.
