    Rock climbing walls Rockwall1


    Another example of the universe having it in for one particular short legged person today. They had one of these downtown and it was the first time I'd tried it and I only managed to get about six feet off the ground before the rock spaces became too far apart for my feet to reach from one to another, three times I tried, three times I fell from the same point. Also I found out the hard way that when you weigh 200 pounds and you slip from one of these, you fall fast and hard. Has anybody else tried these and if so have you ever gotten to the top?

    They have rock climbing at my gym. I climbed to the top once, but I have no desire to do it again.

    Why? Not much of a view from up there? Wink

    I've tried it. Definitely a work out and not as easy as it looks. I almost made it to the top, then I slipped off.
