Slackline cursus
Been wanting to Slackline for a while? But can’t control the shaking? Don’t know how to start? Or you want to start doing tricks, but don’t know how? Want to surprise everybody in the spring when you slackline?
In February Jonas Konijnenberg of the Slacktivity slackline team will give 4 lessons on monday night (4, 11, 18 and 25) in Bouldercentrum Delfts Bleau.
Jonas can be found on a slackline almost every day. In November he was in Switzerland training indoor for a month and doing some highline projects. He’s one of the better trickliners in The Netherlands, but he is also very interested in highlining. Jonas almost finished his education to become a gym teacher, so you can expect a course with truly added value.
At 19.00 the lesson for beginners start, with these lessons you will first learn the basics of slacklining: balancing, walking and a couple of static tricks.
Om 20.30 the lesson for the experienced/advanced slackliner starts. In this lesson you will learn everything that goes beyond the basics: Static tricks, dynamic tricks en footjumps. If you’re able to easily walk up and down, you have the right level for this course.
Apply in advance, there is only space for 6 persons per course! So be on time… You can apply with the form below.
Participation costs € 30,- for all 4 lessons. If you want to boulder before or after the course, the entrance is € 5,- per night.
As an extra, if you participate in this course, you can buy a Slacktivity slackline with a 20% discount! That means you can have the Allround-2 slackline for only € 89,95 in stead of € 109,- and the Experience for only € 114,95 in stead of € 139,-

tick tock…2013 is arriving!
bouldering until 20.00h tonight as we close the doors at that timeslot, looking back to a magnificent year. A year in which a dream was realised with the help of Axis, Vertigo, family, friends, colleagues and lots of volunteers. There’s still some dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s to do, which we’ll take care of in 2013. And off course we’ll take care of organising great competitions, (slackline) workshops, kidsparty’s and most importantly: building challenging and beautiful boulders! We wish you all a healthy and sportive 2013!

Monday 17 December Jonas Konijnenberg of the Slacktivity slackline team visits Bouldercenter Delfts Bleau to give a demonstration at the slackline, followed by a short workshop.
Jonas can be found on a slackline almost every day. Last month he was in Switzerland training indoor for a month and doing some highline projects. He’s one of the better trickliners in The Netherlands, but he is also very interested in highlining.

Introduction lesson bouldering
On Friday the 7th of December the first of our introduction lesson will be given. The lesson itself will take about 45 minutes, starting with a short introduction into bouldering, some background information and completed with some basic techniques. After the lesson you’re of course free to stay for some more bouldering and to try what you’ve just learned.
The lesson itself is free, you just need to pay your regular entrance fee. You can rent shoes for € 3,50, but it’s also possible to boulder on your clean indoor sport shoes. All you need is some regular sports clothing. We have changing rooms and showers.
Please let us know using the contact form if you want to join.
Gas, Boulderen with DJ’s, new circuits, K3-contest, Christmas…
Since the opening 2 months ago the DIY’ing has been somewhat receded to the background. However, we made some small improvements, like benches and hooklets in the changing rooms, but also some major ones. After months of negotiating with the gas companies we finally got gas a month ago. The floor heating is now fully operational and you can now walk around with bare feet comfortably. And there are nice hot showers now!
There’s a beautiful, one-of-a-kind, Stamtisch made by Frank. The towel racks in the showers are placed today as well.
We have 2 new circuits: the green Axis-circuit (5- – 6a) and the purple Squadra-circuit (7b-8a+). The Squadra holds are selected by Nicky de Leeuw and have been donated to us by his parents, a very special gesture!
Today we removed and cleaned the red circuit (thanks Robert and Tim!) and tomorrow, Friday 30 November, a new red circuit will be set under supervision of our head route setters Michiel and Remmelt. You’re welcome to test this new circuit on Friday evening with live DJ’s I.VO.D en JFM, that is… unless you’re participating in Saturday’s K3-contest as the contest routes will be set that day as well.
The K3-contest is organised by Yeti for her members and starts Saturday at 15.00h with finals at 19.00h The Bouldercenter closes as always at 18.00h for the regular visitors. Participants are not allowed to enter the Bouldercenter on Friday and are welcome as of 14.30h on Saturday.
Furthermore we have plans for some events. Friday night 7 December we’ll organise an introduction training boulderen, the youth group of Klimmuur Den Haag will most like train with us again on Saturday morning 15 December and Jonas of Slacktivity will organise a slackline workshop on Monday evening 17 December. We’ll provide you a.s.a.p with the details!
And then it’s already Christmas time! Sunday 23 December we close the doors at 17.00h for a brief Chrismas break. Thursday 27 December we’re open again. We’ll be putting a personnel add up any day now and if we manage to find the right candidates in time, we plan to be open earlier in the afternoon in the week before Christmas.
We keep you posted!
Closed Friday October 26th
