Plainsboro, NJ — The Gravity Vault, a premier indoor rock climbing gym, is thrilled to announce the Grand Opening of its latest location at 10 Schalks Crossing Road, Plainsboro Township, NJ. This state-of-the-art facility offers a comprehensive climbing experience for enthusiasts of all skill levels, featuring an impressive array of climbing terrains and amenities designed to challenge and inspire.
An Unparalleled Climbing Experience
The Gravity Vault Princeton location boasts over 17,500 sq ft of mixed terrain with dedicated areas for roped climbing including Top Rope, Lead and Speed climbing complimented with extensive bouldering terrain. The Spray Wall, 12’ x 12’ adjustable Kilter board and interactive boulder wall adds an additional layer of complexity, providing endless possibilities for creating custom routes.
For those interested in sport climbing, the facility offers more than 70 belay stations for lead routes in “the pit” and features a dedicated lead wall ensuring climbers will find a diverse range of challenges to conquer. Two crack climb routes and a keyhole arch with chimney climbing allows for specialized techniques, and a dedicated top rope and lead class area is perfect for honing skills.
Cutting-Edge Facilities and Amenities
“The Princeton, NJ market has been eagerly awaiting the completion of Gravity Vault Princeton as the 14th location for the brand. The transformation of the space from a typical retail mall outlet with low ceilings into a bright and open space that can accommodate necessary heights for roped climbing was a challenging engineering project. As a result, the facility has a unique layout that has enabled excellent separation of space to accommodate the extensive array of programming GV has to offer.” said Mark Davidson, Vice President of Sales and Development for Rock Climbing Franchising, the Gravity Vault’s franchising division.
The Gravity Vault Princeton has a dedicated training area including an adjustable Kilter Board, a Spray Wall, Campus Board, and Hangboard Station and interactive wall from Clift, ensuring climbers have access to top-notch training resources. The gym is equipped with a 10m speed wall for competitive climbers and auto belays for those who are top rope belay certified.
In addition to climbing, the gym offers four top notch yoga and HIIT classes a week, in addition to a dedicated fitness room and stretching area with a full suite of cardio and strength training equipment. Families will enjoy the dedicated kids’ party wall. With two party/function rooms, locker rooms with showers, and lounge areas equipped with free Wi-Fi, The Gravity Vault ensures a comfortable and enjoyable visit for all.
Shan Jiang, co-owner of The Gravity Vault Princeton, has said: “We have been working very hard to make the space become a home. The extra time and energy was all worth it when climbers said they had been waiting for us to open for a long time, and if I hadn’t done it, they would have done it themselves! The Climbing community is the best, where people constantly step out of their comfort zones and improve themselves through movement and friendship. It was so gratifying to create a happy place for people to hang out.”
Co-owner Mike Morand added, “Our space was designed as a “third place” – an area outside our homes and work where people can connect and foster community. Our staff shares this ambition, and this talented lineup of instructors, setters, and leaders are working tirelessly to maximize this with first-rate climbing experiences. We’re committed to continuous improvement to ensure our climbing routes and problems, programs, and other offerings keep getting better and better.”
