Part of SLABTEMBER 2023
Last year our SLABFEST event was very popular and over far too quickly - so this year we thought, why not have a whole month of slab fun?! So, this September, you can look forward to:
Every week during September we'll be setting 10 SLABTEMBER blocs around the centre. These will be set on slab or vert areas around the centre, look out for the special plaques. Log your sends through the "competitions" section of the Toplogger app, with slab t-shirts and goodies to be won for our slab masters over the month. PLUS if you enter the competition, your name will automatically be added to a prize draw at the end of the month to win a free pair of Scarpa climbing shoes!
The special SLABTEMBER blocs can be climbed at any point over the week, with new blocs going up each Friday ready to climb by 5pm, getting stripped again the following Friday morning, so no need to all rush in on day 1.
We have some great guest setters lined up for the month's SLABTEMBER sets!
We'll have some fun challenges dotted around the centre during the month too, with some quirky ways to test your co-ordination, balance and fancy footwork skills! Look out for the plaques as you head around the centre.
Shoe demos are a great way to come and try on a pair of broken-in climbing shoes in your size and give them a test drive on the walls. There's no extra charge to try out the demo shoes, just talk to the friendly reps on the stands when you see them!
In addition to our special SLABTEMBER blocs we're also resetting both our main slab areas in full over the month:
Keep your eyes peeled in our shop for new Slab is Rad t-shirts and vests, as well as special offers set up for the month.
