Yep, and... it's about to get better.
New holds coming in, some wall modifications. I suck if I don't hit my goals for the year.

have to keep the door functional as well but have 14 wide by 12-14 deep to play with.
do you think that tying into the roof eves would be a bad thing?

if your height is limited, which it is, get rid of as much kicker as possible. they suck and make you weak. they make framing easier i think but they allow you to do so many moves with your feet on this vert piece....bad for your core and steep climbin

I did it without concern. There are sleepers running across the joists and the wall ties to the sleepers. It should'nt be a problem.
I'm in Cincy but wouldn't be opposed to a trip down to help out and check out your gym in the evening or something. Sounds like you have help from Kramp too.

word. yeah plenty of help(i guess thats what its called) its just laying it out and knowing it will work. and not suck.
i like the cave but a bulge of sorts would be cool if easy to do. im down with just three or fouur different angles for maximal training.
do you think a roof is worth it or not?
