Great location for indoor bouldering! Incredibly friendly staff members and a nice gym space. A bunch of different walls with different slopes and route difficulties. It was very laid-back, which I appreciated(not having climbed in years). Well-kept areas, clean bathrooms, spaces for belongings, a lot of open space, and good challenging routes. A few critiques, however. There were many spots where there was either missing tape(didn’t know if that rock was part of a route) or there was tape but no rock(broken?). I think a little bit of route maintenance would go a long way. In addition, maybe it was the time of day but the selection for rental shoes seemed to be sparse. Granted, I understand this is less a problem for frequent climbers but for occasional climbers/company outings/dates, this is still a necessary commodity. Other than that, we had a great time, and would definitely come back.

This place will make you a better climber. It is a great introduction to the sport, quick and easy and reasonably priced; and it is also a serious bouldering gym where every hour invested makes you stronger and improves your technique. Investing time here has made me a better top-rope climber, for two reasons. First, the staff are experienced and keen to help, and the crowd is not pretentious. You get great coaching from staff and fellow climbers alike. Second, these are just great routes. A V2 feels like a V2, and a every V4 problem teaches you something different. Friends of mine that are more advanced climbers echo this sentiment. Jeff and Rodney pay serious attention to the routes they set, and adjust and improve according to what they see customers doing. Support a great local business, and come out and have fun.

Fun place! I was never too interested in climbing until I started going to Progression. They are very creative and the staff is friendly and obviously care about climbing a lot and enjoy getting other people involved. I don’t feel intimated here. It’s a very comfortable laid back environment. The slackline is also great for when you get tired out and need a break.

Excellent new indoor bouldering gym with a great staff of experienced climbers in a nice location convenient to Chapel Hill and Durham. Just rent shoes, start climbing, then drop onto huge thick foam pads. No ropes or harnesses required!
