- An in-depth tour of my home climbing wall, built in an old monitor barn. I go over some construction details, some things to do and avoid, and provide inspiration for your home wall brainstorming projects.

great idea ...good job Charlie 💪💪💪
This is a rad setup dude!!!! All these home climbing training areas, makes me think I should create a proper wall. Thanks for sharing the build 🤙
It's definitely worth it!
Being able to practice for a difficult route or face of a rock you want to conquer, it's really great
First off... I spotted your Trogdor reference...
Secondly, I love what you did with your space!
Ha! Homestar and Strongbad nerds unite! This is now the "old" space. I need to make a video of the new setup, which is slightly smaller but [finally] better insulated.
Very nice wall :)
Awesome!!
GORGEOUS
Amazing
Nice wall charlie!
For the fall zone, is there an affordable and safe alternative to laying out multiple crashpads? My wall will be indoors (garage) so have space to store away right next to it. Thanks for the help!
Maybe some yoga mats?
Or a rug?
Sorry for the super later reply. Old school or university gymnastic mats seem to be the best bet. Call around. By law they have to replace them every so often.
would you ever varnish or lacquer your walls? or paint?
That may be climate dependent. I live in a very dry area. My walls have no sign of humidity damage. I personally like the brighter, natural wood color over a painted surface. Also, the nicer the plywood, the less you'll have to cover up the splinters/imperfections.
In every experience I've had with home painted walls, holds always stuck to the paint, peeled the paint, and ripped the thin veneer off of the plywood whenever holds were removed. I don't have that problem with bare wood.
I was thinking of building a climbing wall in my room and It’s not super big and I was
wondering, what would be a safe distance from the top of my climbing board to the back wall? If I did a 40 degree wall I would have 4 feet of fall zone from the top of the wall to the back wall.
Nick Emert I think the industry standard is 8’ back from the top of the fall line. However, if the wall is only 8’ tall, it might not be an issue. I’d consider how far your feet will swing out. A thin pad on the back wall would mitigate that.
Thanks! It is only 8’ tall so I’ll just put a pad on my back wall and it will probably be fine.
@@nickemert3510 You show probably build it outside to bypass height limitations
My house has 3 stories and one section is a loft with an open empty space from floor to the ceiling so we could install a tall climbing wall that's just short of 10 meters tall. Having a higher limit in height is very good to build strength and practice a certain route or face of a rock you want to conquer. The higher you climb you start getting tired so it's nice to practice that
Where did u buy your moon board holds?
Straight from the Moon website but long ago. 2016 before the prices skyrocketed!
