Strömbäck outside Umeå - Sweden
In Swedish:
När vi byggde vårt nya hus med tillhörande garage i maj 2008 beslutade vi oss snabbt för att anpassa ett extrarum i garaget för att kunna bygga en bouldervägg. Den totala kostnaden (exkl grepp) med att förlänga garaget, höja taket (till 3,60 m i nock), köpa in madrasser och bygga boulderväggarna landade runt 20-25000 kr. Grepp hade vi tillgång till sedan tidigare men har kompletterat med bland annat lite större formationer från Ergoholds och Moonclimbing. Totalt sitter det uppe lite drygt 700 grepp på de tre väggarna.
Naturligtvis är det ett varmgarage för annars går det inte träna vintertid och på sommaren klättrar man väl ute?
Jag tror "gymet" står sig rätt ok i Sverige men vet att man aldrig kan tävla med amerikaner...

Main bouldering wall, 40 degrees, 500+ holds!

My new bouldering cave!
There is 1300 nuts for holds, crack, radio and also old well with very cold water... It is 7m long, 4m wide and 2,5m high. Stable temperature 12 centigrades of Celsius for perfect friction and cold beer. I finished it one month ago. I spent at least 2000euro without holds and much more time....

Why are you giving holds to people with the nicest gyms? Shouldn't the holds go to someone who needs them?

Hey Kai, I bet that was something they planned for later and then it will be double as much holds ;)

It encourages people to build nice gyms so they can get nice holds when the competition is on the next time :)

It is not very nice neither is always inspiring for me but I can certainly use some new holds to expend this portable gym.

Just wanted to know, how much have you guys spent on those walls? I'm trying to make one myself and wanted to know how much i can expect to spend

A couple of months ago i started to build my home gym(a cave) in an old apartment that i had to fix too. I started playing with only 16 holds, since then i've been adding more holds some of them are wooden footsteps made by myself The plans are, close the cave adding vertical sheets and replace the wooden holds as soon as i can. .This is the first place to train in my city and my friends and I are pretty exited we have hoping this time we gonna get in fucking good shape to send those projs.
@ Kai Segrud I agree with those hold should be given to those who needs them more.
Btw David Ander What an awesome place congrats..

My garage in Coventry. Took me about 8 days to build initially then added things like the campus board and the fingerboards later. The finger board station has grown and now also has a Core finger board and a Beastmaker fingerboard as well.

Woohoa! There are some really cool looking home gyms out there... congrats to all. This is my home climbing wall, along with "mandatory" campus board and fingerboard. Actually, it´s being remodeled. My grandfather calls it the "Lagartixodromo" (something like geckodrome), because of all the "crazy people climbing like lizards", haha. Check it out.

The Bat Cave
Hey, this is my gym. We just spent the last two days resetting and washing all the holds so it looks nice and new. We still arnt done setting the walls so they look a little bare but you guys get the idea : ) We have 3 main bouldering caves, one of which tops out as well as a vertical wall. For our training we have a compus board, rock rings, gymnast rings, a rope ladder and 3 hang boards. The gym is 14 feet high and the walls around 20 feet long, the topout boulder is a bit longer. We have over 2000 holds and too much time on our hands...
Thanks! Enjoy!!!

Some people really have space and money to build monstrous gyms. Mine is not so big but stll effective.
My home gym in Salzburg.
I built this gym two years ago in the attic of my grandmothers house. It is 5 meters long and 3 meters high. As you can see I have a campusboard and a hangboard on the back of the campusboard. The campusboard is flexible in angle to keep it out of the way while climbing. I spent around 1000 € on the material (wood, skrews, holds and so forth). Once I had the stuff I built it in one day, alone. So if it’s good planned it’s not so much work. And of course I’m constantly buying and making new holds. I also have a lot of other Training diveces, such as theraband, wights, gymnastic rings, a rope leather, a bar,... in order the keep the training diversified and interesting.

I was wondering whether yours would turn up Toby. Brad had told me you had added an extension.

This is DansGarage, located i Kärda - outside Värnamo - in the south of Sweden. The gym has 35 square meters om wall in different angels and stepness. The gym was built during the x-mas holiday last year and the plan is to extend it with about 10 more square meter and (of course) with a campusboard! As you can see, we are in need of some more holds.......

My home climbing "object" is not a gym, but something outside in the garden. It's a 6m x 6m x 6m cube. The surface is made partly from wooden panels, but the main part is from special wood-carbon-resin-concret moduls, with a lots of structure reliefs and home made inside holds and a 40 square metre tipping wall. It's like a transition from Osp to Elbsandsteingebirge. The interior is a semi-finished training room with plywood panels, a Bachar ladder, 2 campus boards, 3 fingerboards, rock rings, a systemwall, parallel bars, climbing poles and ropes, wall-bars and many other instruments of torture, but without lights and heating. It's Hungary, you know. We use all together about 1000 holds from City Wall, Lapisholds, Samsara, MR, Art-Rock, Entre Prise, Pierre Oeuf, Nicros and others, but it's terribly insufficient.

we built this gym about 15 years ago in the attic of an old residence located in trier in germany. evreything is selfmade and we try to enlarge the wall every year a bit with the money of a bouldercup we organize once a year at the end of november. the first years it had been just a climbing wall but then we made some boulder parts until we decontruct all climbing parts to have a boulderattic for better training. we 've a big about 7 m overhanging wave, a little roof and a lot of overhanging walls + fingerboard and campusboard there are a lot of other pics of our latest bouldercup on fightgravity.net the last picture is of the cup of 05

Here are some photos of my home gym. Most of the holds are drilled out rock from the happy boulders and it breaks on me all the time!! I need some less dangerous/more amzing plastic holds!!! There is a large community of local climbers using this wall and getting strong. Thanks! Noah

maximized wall space, but holds are many real rock that break!

fun angles and training area: a 41 degree, a 52 degree and a transition between. the 52 degree is a 5 meter length. 3 meter ceilings.

tricky to build transition




MAN SPACE, BABY!

Please consider my woody! Thanks for your contest, it's fun to see all the amazing home walls. Looks like everyone is PSYCHED!
