That's what you get if a swimming pool is combined with a boulder facility. This wall is the most true to the original deep water soloing: a concrete rock at the rim of the pool at the new Student Aquatic Center on the Southeast Missouri State University campus. The website says: “The challenge will be great, but we wanted to simulate a real-life climbing experience as much as we could," Vaughn said. "I think we are very close to that”. And: "The wall is a 40-foot wide, 14-foot high bouldering wall that spans the west side of the facility's leisure pool. The wall, (...), was formed upon dozens of concrete fabricated panels mounted on a steel cage. The process took more than four weeks to complete, and the results are impressive, he said."The sheer size is stunning, and it makes me wonder if the Netherlands, with its increasing number of climbers, is up to such a wall to!!?
The examle below is more convenient for the kids-playing time; although it looks like fun to me too.
