Nationally certified route setters

Summit Climbing Gym is the only gym in the state of Texas with two USA Climbing nationally certified route setters. Why is it important to climb at a gym with Nationally Certified Route Setters? Because its a gym that puts its climbers first, NOT the birthday parties or the church groups, but the climbers. Having two professional route setters on staff helps Summit change its routes faster than other gyms. But it's more than just frequent new routes (though we have a lot of those) it's the quality of each route that's put up. Stan and Kyle set challenging and interesting routes that aren't reach dependent regardless of whether you're a 5.8 or a 5.13 climber. We want rock climbers to have fun and get pumped, not frustrated. We set routes with the most classic outdoor routes in mind that not only visually inspire, but challenge the climbers' technique, power, and endurance.
