Are you ready to rock?
Tired of your usual, boring weekday nights in the city? Looking for something more stimulating than a movie or a midnight jog? Then maybe it’s time for you to pay The Bouldering Hive a visit and discover the many joys, pains, and rewards of bouldering!
If this is the first time you’ve heard of bouldering or you’re not exactly sure what it is, then just imagine indoor wall climbing or rock climbing without the ropes or safety harnesses.
…okay, maybe not quite just indoor wall climbing without the ropes.
First thing’s first: it’s completely safe! Though bouldering and wall climbing both have you traveling and navigating up rocks on a vertical path, bouldering won’t actually take you to the same heights that wall climbing does.
Instead of climbing about two or three stories up in the air, bouldering set-ups usually only go up to 4 or 5 meters. This means that when you fall (and you will fall), you’ll still safely land on The Bouldering Hive’s triple-padded mats.
Aside from the scale, what sets bouldering apart from the other climbing activities is that the measurement of success doesn’t usually come in terms of speed and how much ground you’ve covered, but it comes in terms of solving “problems”.
“Problems” are the bouldering routes that you, as the boulder-er, have to solve. Problem-solving in bouldering involves a lot of creativity, outside-the-box thinking, and intuition paired up with physical strength and endurance. This leads to high-tension situations that are ultimately rewarding once you’ve solved a tough to crack problem.
The Bouldering Hive
When it comes to bouldering in the Philippines, it’s hard to top The Bouldering Hive. Proudly claiming it’s spot as the first and only exclusively-bouldering climbing gym in the country, The Bouldering Hive (affectionately known as the “bhive” among regulars) is a bouldering enthusiasts dream come true.
The walls, mats, paths, and problems have been custom-designed with bouldering in mind. This means that you can have the best and most comprehensive bouldering experience that you can at the bhive.
Though the bouldering community is still in it’s growing stages, bouldering enthusiasts have fostered a very fun, welcoming, and mentoring environment. Newbies are always welcome at The Bouldering Hive and long-time bouldering vets along with mid-level climbers are more than eager to share tips, tricks, and their hard-earned knowledge to a budding boulder-er.
