Скачать или смотреть Building the Blue Circuit at Shift

The Shift experience is built on Shift circuits. An incredible amount of intentionality and thoughtfulness goes into building each of the 8 circuits in our space.

This video shares some behind-the-scenes moments that take place in building one of our circuits. Each circuit is crafted to present climbers with an extremely diverse set of movements, styles, grips, and challenges meant to encourage progression and well-roundedness.

When you climb a Shift circuit, you'll find yourself encouraged to pursue what looks fun and challenging, rather than the grade that's written on the wall - and that's because there are no grades on the wall! The hold color of each climb represents its general difficulty.

As you climb through one of our numbered circuits, strengths and weaknesses will become apparent - providing opportunities for growth. The ultimate goal is to complete a circuit in our space time and time again. Each time a circuit is reset it'll feature a whole slew of new challenges at that level.

Think of a circuit as a well-curated mixtape.

Many of our fondest climbing memories involve circuiting in the gym or outdoors. We're psyched to share these experiences with the climbing community in West Michigan!

Shift is Holland, Michigan's newest climbing gym featuring over 5k sq ft of bouldering terrain, a cafe/workspace, cardio and strength equipment, and overall good vibes. Come check us out!
