★Greyson TurnerCody apparently requests everyone leave a review. I wasn't going to but this gyms toxic environment has motivated me to do so. I came in while there was a social event going on and immediately I get this sense that I'm not wanted around. I'm climbing, minding my own business when a curly haired front desk staff member seems to be laughing every time I even turn her way. Cody seems to be joining in on it too. I get the sense the people at this gym know me but i have no idea who they are so I don't know why they're laughing. Would not recommend for new climbers.
★★★★Roy Michael BalharrySecond time I've been in and it rocks... No pun intended. Well laid out, friendly bouldering wall with a good variety of problems. Only critique from today was the amount of small kids running around on the mats. Luckily no one landed on any of them. To be fair this might be a parental issue.
★★★★★Paul SteinwegWas visiting Fruita and ran over to the gym to see what it was about. It did not disappoint. Super fun routes, solid equipment for training, and an incredibly friendly and encouraging staff. If I lived here full time… I would be here all the time! They were setting up for a competition the next day they explained, but it sounds like they have a continual refresh of routes.
★★★★★Brandon KailWhat a place to hang, great for the whole family! Recently visited to watch the ASCL climbing comp they hosted and we had a great time! I would highly recommend checking this gym out, friendly owners with a true passion for climbing! Thanks for the great comp and experience! We will definitely be back soon!
★★★★★Bobby SegurolaGrip Bouldering is a boulder gym dream. On top of that the staff is excellent, knowledgeable, kind and welcoming. We signed our kids up for their spring break climbing camp; affordable and exceptional. It consisted of two days in gym and one day outdoor climbing in Unaweep canyon. Both of the kids loved it. We tagged along to watch the kids climb on the last day and it was great to see them pushing their boundaries and testing their limits. I would recommend Grip to anyone who enjoys climbing or thinks they want to try and especially for anyone interested in climbing programs tailored to kids.
