Here’s What to Expect

Here at Climb Tulsa, we cater to those who seek adventure, fun, and a healthy lifestyle through climbing. We strive to maintain an atmosphere that is conducive to learning, community, fitness, risk awareness and respect. 

Please be advised that because climbing is dangerous and involves inherent risks, it is not safe. In this industry, we work to reduce risks as much as possible, but risks will always be present in the sport of climbing.

Climbing or bouldering can result in falls, and falls from any height can lead to serious injury or even death. If you have any questions about the risks of climbing in our facility, please do not hesitate to ask us. While Climb Tulsa works to minimize risk as much as possible, all risks cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity. Ultimately, you are responsible for your own safety!

Frequently Asked Question’s

Everyone that enters our climbing area past the lobby must fill out a waiver, even if you are not climbing and only watching.

And it’s important to always remember, CLIMBING IS INHERENTLY DANGEROUS!

TOP ROPE CLIMBING makes up the majority of our climbing walls. It’s when a single rope runs through an anchor at the top of a wall and the two ends hang down. This is why rope climbing involves two people; a climber tied into one end of the rope and another person, called a belayer, manages slack in the rope from the ground on the other side. Top roping is great for beginners by taking our top rope training course which is offered every day.

• NOTE: Climb Tulsa does not provide staff for belay services outside of scheduled group events, but instead offers the training course throughout the week. For those with children interested in climbing, many parents take the class in order to provide a belay for them.

Details about the Top Rope Training Course:

• All participants must be 13 years of age or older

• Must be 16 years or older to be in charge of someone under 13 years.

• Course duration between 45-60 minutes

• See class availability and online booking here

• AUTO BELAY is for single person use only. This is more available to walk-ins, though traffic bottle-necking is likely to occur during peak times, such as weekends.

• None of our classes are necessary to use our auto belays

• An auto belay uses a mechanism at the top of the wall that automatically takes slack for the climber as they ascend and lowers them when they fall or let go. We teach everyone how to properly use this in our mandatory facility orientation.

AUTO BELAY RULES:

• No children under 13 may use the auto belays without assistance of a supervising adult. Children under 13 cannot clip themselves into the autobelay.

• Share! DO NOT climb multiple times if someone is waiting

• DO NOT climb more than 3-4 feet to the left or right of where the auto belay is stationed

• DO NOT climb past, above or touch the auto belay

• Staff may commandeer at any time for instructional purposes

Shorter walls…

None of our classes are necessary to boulder

• There are two bouldering areas located on the second floor of our facility.

  • Our main bouldering area is always open to the public during business hours.

  • The secondary bouldering area, while shorter and better for smaller children, may often be reserved for kids programming or group events.

BOULDERING is climbing on shorter walls over softer padded surfaces. Because of the shorter heights and padding, no harness or ropes are used for this type of climbing. This also allows for those wanting to climb on a walk-in basis a space to do so. In bouldering every fall is a ground fall. Everyone in the bouldering area must be very aware of their surrounding (especially above) and those with children need to be actively reminding them of fall zones.

Feel free to call ahead and check the availability of this area if you are bringing young ones.
