Jessie+FollowMontclair Gravity Vault got me thinking I’m better than I am 😭They have like…a whole wall of VB to V1?? I thought I’d warm up, but accidentally stayed there for an hour just vibing. Everyone’s so chill too—no pressure, no one judging your footwork (even though they should). Also went on Friday after 6 for that half-off deal, so now I’m loyal lol. #sport #climbing #njgyms130Share
Jessie+FollowSeattle climbing gym hopping 🧗|Vertical World & EdgeworksBeen climbing at Edgeworks Bellevue for weeks, finally got curious enough to try some other spots in town. 🧗♀️ Vertical World North Harder than I expected?? Even the 5.9s felt spicy. First time on autobelay and I was legit scared to let go at the top 😅 The routes were cool though — very crimpy, very thinky. 🧗♀️ Edgeworks Seattle Smaller gym, but nice vibe. More bouldering, less rope. I somehow sent my first 5.10 here (??). Also saw a girl lead the ceiling route like it was nothing — queen behavior. Might still stick to Bellevue for now, but Seattle’s got some gems! #sport #climbing #focusedenergy120Share
Jessie+FollowMy sister tried climbing at the Oakville community center and got totally hooked!She went from super cautious to climbing higher and higher, didn’t want to stop. I honestly thought she’d quit a few times, but nope, she kept going. The place isn’t crowded like regular gyms, no need to rent harnesses or special shoes (though I’d still recommend getting some). No coaches, but parents can cheer right from the side, so even newbies and little kids can feel safe. If you ask me, 7-8 years old is the sweet spot for trying it out. Sessions last about 1.5 hours, but sometimes you gotta wait a bit between climbs because there’s only a few staff. Perfect for weekend family outings! Watching her focus and push herself was honestly amazing — kids can surprise you with how far they’ll go. #sport #climbing #familyfun210Share
Jessie+FollowChicago climbing gyms lowkey ruined me. Everything feels too fun now.Soft V5s, slick setups, even the easy stuff feels thoughtful. Like you can tell the setters care. Might be the competition vibe here. But idk… watching friends casually lap V7s I still flail on is messing with my ego a little. How is every gym this nice tho?? #sport #climbing #chicagolife300Share
Jessie+FollowInside 6 West Coast Movement Gyms 🧗 Hit Movement gyms in North America—here’s West Coast first. Santa Clara? Packed and sweaty, AC once died for a whole summer. Sunnyvale’s got better lines, but you’ll freeze at night. SF has a top-out rope wall under the Golden Gate—pretty wild. Belmont is chill, Portland has a real slide, Fountain Valley’s walls are… festive. Just noting things down before I forget. #sport #climbing #justsharing60Share
