    A Combination Wall (Combi Wall) is part Top Rope Wall, part Traverse Wall®. It caters to a wide variety of ages and abilities, as well as large groups. Combi Walls are the ideal climbing walls for schools and camps with the ability to reach youth ages 5 and up.

    Adolescent and adult climbers will thrive on the differentiated challenges featured on the Top Rope Climbing Wall. Vertical climbing facilitates the development of advanced climbing skills, as well as opportunities for trust and team building. The Traverse Wall® portion of your Combi Wall requires no ropes or harnesses and is climbed horizontally, not vertically. Put these two climbing walls together together and you have the best of both worlds.

    Combi Walls are available in the following panel styles: Standard, Relief-Feature, Magna® and Magna® Relief-Feature. You could also consider the Mural Wall for your Traverse Wall and choose a complementary panel style for your Top Rope Climbing Wall. To add more dimension and challenge to your Combi Wall, we can add features, cracks and overhangs.

    Special equipment and training are required for vertical climbing walls. Each Combi Wall Package includes our patented Mat-Locking System, harnesses, carabiners, helmets, ropes, belay devices and a one-day, on-site staff training.

    Because every Combi Wall is custom designed to fit your facility, please contact us so we can walk through details with you: 1.800.476.7366 or info@everlastclimbing.com.

  • FAQs

    What is the best type of wall for installing a climbing wall?

    If your climbing wall is going to be installed on a concrete/CMU wall, you are good to go. If your wall is made of drywall - either metal or wood studs - the installation process will include building out a sub wall for the climbing wall panels to be installed on. If you have a metal stud wall, it should be at least 6" 18-gauge steel studs, 16" o.c. For full details on the drywall installation process, please reach out to us at info@everlastclimbing.com.

    Where should hand holds be installed if I am installing the climbing wall myself?

    The fun thing about our climbing walls is there are so many pre-set T-nuts in the panels that you can place the holds pretty much anywhere you want.

    If your wall includes a Red-Relief Line®, install that first. Recommended heights are:

    WeeKidz® Walls: 2.5 feet above the safety mats
    8' Traverse Walls®: 3 feet above the safety mats
    10' Traverse Walls®: 3.5 feet above the safety mats

    Keep any foot holds below the Red-Relief Line® if applicable.

    At the beginning and end of the wall, place holds so climbers can easily climb off instead of jumping down. You can position holds in whatever direction you feel is best, but keep in mind there is generally an easier and harder way to position each hold.

    Once all holds are placed, try climbing the routes yourself to check the difficulty. You can always add or move holds to adjust the route.

    For more on installing holds and route-setting, check out this past educational climbing blog.

    What kinds of activities can be done on a climbing wall?

    There are a lot of different types of activities that can take place on a climbing wall including individual, partner, competitive and cooperative activities. Activities help develop physical, social-emotional and cognitive skills. Varying how your climbers use the climbing wall by offering a variety of activities helps maintain interest in the climbing wall over time. Every climbing wall purchase includes a copy of our comprehensive Climbing the Walls Activity Guide that includes important information and 65 detailed lesson plans to help get you started. You can visit our Climbing Wall Activities page to see examples of activities you can download.

    How do I fund my climbing wall?

    We know that budgets are limited and we try to help with funding in several ways. We offer a free funding guide, one for every state, that includes grants and other funding ideas to help you raise needed funds. We offer an annual Boost Grant Program where we award $1,000 - $5,000 towards a climbing wall project. We also offer a discount for Demo Sites. Visit our funding support web page to learn more.
