New Haven, CT on Tuesday, May 14 at NOON – We (Rock Spot Climbing) TODAY announced that we will be OPENING our brand new indoor climbing facility exclusively to members with 2,455 sq. ft. of climbing walls IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN NEW HAVEN, ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE LEGENDARY SALLY’S APIZZA  in CONNECTICUT with ACCESS TO BOTH INTERSTATES 91 AND 95. Exclusive access for members and their guests will run until Thursday, May 16 from 3PM until 11PM daily. We will be OPENING TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC THIS FRIDAY from 11AM until 11PM, which will be our regular hours Monday through Friday, with 10AM to 11PM hours on Saturdays and Sundays.

This New Haven location is our company’s SECOND in CONNECTICUT, joining three others in RHODE ISLAND, and four more locations in MASSACHUSETTS. We pride ourselves in being a Southeast New England based company over twenty-five (25) years in existence; among the largest climbing chains in the country with nine (9) total facilities.

This NEWEST location focuses SOLELY on a form of climbing known as BOULDERING, where climbers, USING NO ROPES, scale climbing problems set on fifteen foot walls protected by a fully padded flooring system. This will be our fourth (4th) gym that focuses on this style of climbing. Our other facilities offer top rope and sport climbing along with boulder climbing. Along with bouldering, this facility will also feature a Rogue Fitness rig, a variety of cardio equipment, and both a Moon and a Decoy training board.

NADAV MINKIN, CO-OWNER of Rock Spot Climbing said, “We are so excited to provide our brand of accessible and inclusive climbing to the city of New Haven and the surrounding area. We hope this facility will be a place for people of all ages and abilities to discover and enjoy the sport with friends and family.” He added, “The sport has skyrocketed in interest from the time that we started our company over 25 years ago, and we’re extremely proud that it has been a leader in the growth and success of the overall climbing industry in the region.”

LARY NORIN, CO-OWNER said, “We have been so proud to be instrumental in raising awareness of our sport and growing the community in our region. More people are looking for activities and experiences they can share together. Nothing makes us prouder than knowing we have over 150 team members across three states providing a fun, active experience for all who climb at our facilities.”
