Скалодром "Climbing gym s.k.lucky"

Pros:
- The staff is very friendly and speaks good Russian or English.
- Equipment rental is free, and all gear is certified by UIAA.
- The KILTER BOARD is highly impressive.
- There are great offers for students.

Cons:
- No showers available, just one sink.
- The lead climbing area lacks mats, which is a safety concern since a fall could happen before clipping the first carabiner.
- The KILTER BOARD looks quite dirty, and there are only two brushes available in the gym. I wasn't sure if I could use them to clean the holds.
- Instructors didn't seem very attentive to the safety of others. It's crucial for them to inform newcomers about safe climbing down from the boulder section; I saw someone jump off the wall directly onto the mat. Also, climbing with headphones is dangerous and is typically banned in other gyms.
- The price for a day pass is too high for the comfort level provided. It's comparable to many European and Russian gyms, but this one feels less comfortable.
- Most harnesses are in need of replacement.

Suggestions for improvement:
- Provide instructions for the KILTER BOARD (e.g., how to adjust the angle and download the app) and include brushes of different sizes.
- If showers aren't an option, at least provide deodorant in each changing room and hand sanitizer in the warm-up area, as everyone uses the same equipment and tends to be sweaty.

Overall, I appreciate that the team is trying their best, but the price remains too high for what is offered. It might be suitable for beginners, but as an intermediate climber, I don't find the safety and comfort levels satisfactory.

На болдеринге нет маршрутов, ничего не обозначено, только неудобное приложение. Инструктор, грузинская девушка, не может объяснить на английском, как правильно страховать.

The facility is in poor condition. It feels old and inexpensive. There are no bouldering routes available, but there are many belay routes. There's no air conditioning, and the rental shoes are of low quality. I wouldn't recommend visiting.

Overall, it was a good experience. The highlight of the gym is definitely the friendly staff, and Levani was an excellent instructor who clearly explained everything and was very supportive.

On the downside, the gym isn't very suitable for beginners. The boulders lack color coding, and you need an app to keep track of the routes. There was also no place to wash your hands.

If you enjoy rope climbing, it's worth checking out.

The price seems to have increased from 20 Lari to 40 Lari in the last couple of years. It also looks like they haven't cleaned the holds during that time.

The climbing setup has a lot of potential, but it feels like they only made improvements until they started getting visitors, and then they stopped.

If you're into bouldering and not a fan of Kilter, I recommend looking elsewhere. For those who prioritize safety in climbing gear, it's better to stay at home. If you're okay with a more outdated and unique experience, you might enjoy it for a visit or two, but you'll quickly run out of new routes to climb.

The staff appeared friendly but seemed a bit unmotivated.

It's disappointing because this place could be much better. Perhaps they'll improve when competition arrives.

For now, I can't give it more than 2 stars.

The entry fee is way too high for this climbing gym. You pay what you would for a decent European gym, but the experience is lacking.

The rope climbing section has only small, cheap holds and no volumes. The bouldering areas are tiny with no set routes and poor holds. You can only use routes made by the community, which are just average.

There are no toilets and the changing rooms are in bad shape.

The only positive aspect is the presence of a kilter board.

It wasn't great in 2022, and the only change since then is that the prices have gone up.

This seems to be the only climbing gym in Tbilisi. The entrance fee is 40 GEL, and all rentals are free. There are no showers, just one sink in the women’s changing area.

The bouldering area is quite small, and you need to download the Climbzilla app to view the routes, which is disappointing. However, the top rope walls have good routes with a grigri setup, and instructors are available to belay if needed.

Overall, it's a decent spot for top roping but only average for bouldering.

В зале очень холодно, оборудование устарело, и цена в 40 лари не оправдывает ожиданий. Трассы не обозначены, приходится самим их придумывать. Похоже, что кран с водой есть только в женском раздевалке, из-за чего мужчины постоянно туда заходят, что создаёт дискомфорт. Маты слишком короткие, можно легко травмироваться при падении. Не рекомендую.

A great little place with friendly people.
