In Their Words: “It was really important to us to create a gym that could host competitions at all levels, especially at the highest level, so spectating space was really important, and creating wall angles that are conducive to competition rock climbing was really important. I think we did a really good job with it. Since day one we’ve always wanted that, and we’re finally doing it.” —Chris LoCrasto, co-owner
