Clip ‘n Climb launches new climbing challenges

Global indoor climbing attractions innovator Clip ‘n Climb® International has released two new recreational products - Detonator and the Time Traveller.

The Detonator (pictured above) is a remake of the Astroball, involving overhanging bomb spheres. Detonator takes up less floor footprint which makes it useful for filling small areas in adventure zones and recreation centres.

Its highly challenging 3D wall tests a climber’s courage and agility and is likely to attract climbers of all ages - from children, through teenagers to adults.

In use, the climber has to navigate brightly coloured ‘giant bombs’ of various sizes on the way to the top. Each ‘bomb’ has just one giant spherical handle plus a few small holds for feet. Detonator calls for maximum suppleness, strength and stretch. To make it harder, all the handles are positioned at different angles.

Climbers have to reach out and around the spheres to grab the handles. Then they grab or undercling the handholds before swapping hands for feet and going for a big stretch for the next handhold.

The Time Traveller (pictured below) features eye-catching graphics for this challenge - inspired by the iconic London Underground map.

With this challenge, climbers challenge a countdown clock and race it as time runs out. A team-mate on the ground can keep an eye on the clock, calling out encouragement and letting the climber know how much time is left.

New Zealand-based Clip ‘n Climb is an innovative fun climbing concept with more than 30 climbing challenges suitable for the whole family. The Clip ‘n Climb clipper system keeps climbers safe while they stretch themselves with a wide range of challenges. Clip ‘n Climb has been installed in venues right across the world. Adventure Zones contain less than 15 challenges, while Adventure Centres have more than 15.
