Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an adjustable-incline climbing wall. The climbing wall comprises one or more climbing panels supported by a frame and a system for adjusting the incline of the frame to provide a climbing wall of a desired incline. The incline of the climbing wall may be adjusted by activating an actuator, which extends the upper portion of the frame a distance from a support wall, tilting the climbing wall to a desired incline. When the climbing wall is substantially vertically oriented, the system for adjusting the incline of the climbing wall may extend only a small distance from the support wall so that the adjustable-incline climbing wall has a relatively small footprint. In some embodiments, the climbing wall may also comprise one or more fitness accessories that can brought to an optimal height for a particular user through adjustment of the climbing wall incline.

Abstract: A climbing wall assembly may include a first wall portion, a second wall portion, and a movable wall panel, the front faces of which provide a substantially continuous climbing surface. The movable wall panel has a first side hingedly connected to the first wall portion and a second side slideably and hingedly connected to the second wall portion. The assembly further includes one or more actuators configured to change an angle of the first wall portion, the second wall portion, or both. By changing the relative angle between the first and second wall portions, the movable panel may be brought between closed and open positions to provide the climbing wall with different climbing challenges.

Abstract: An adjustable-topography climbing wall assembly includes a plurality of climbing panels that are movable relative to one another. Each panel includes a surface element and frame elements positioned on the rear face of the surface element along the side edges of the panel. Each frame element is adjustably connected with a frame element of an adjacent panel such that the adjacent panels can be moved through a plurality of joint positions by one or more actuators. The adjustably-connected frame elements may be (i) pivotable relative to one another, such that an angle between the adjacent panels may be varied and (ii) slidable relative to one another, such that a distance between the adjacent panels can be varied. Regardless of the joint position, the front faces of the surface elements may together define a substantially continuous climbing surface.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an adjustable-incline climbing wall. The climbing wall comprises a climbing surface and a system for adjusting the climbing surface to a desired incline. By positioning the pivot point for the climbing surface in front of the bottom edge of the climbing surface, embodiments of the climbing wall minimize or eliminate the unusable “dead space” at the bottom of the climbing surface that is created when conventional adjustable climbing walls are placed at higher angles of incline. Moreover, by angling the legs of the support structure outward, embodiments of the climbing wall provide for an extended fall area that is free from obstructions, providing enhanced climber safety. Finally, embodiments of the climbing wall are freestanding structures, which are easily installable in a climber's home or personal gym without damage to floors or walls.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to climbing wall assemblies having a variety of improvements. For instance, the climbing wall assemblies may include connectors to attach the surface panels to the framework, in which the connectors may be mounted substantially anywhere along the front of the framework and at substantially any angle, providing for the securement of climbing panels in various geometries. The climbing wall assemblies may also include braces that may easily be adjusted to a desired length and configuration during construction of a climbing wall. The climbing wall assemblies may also include variable-angle, integral front posts, which provide for the easy and stable securement of climbing panels in various geometries. These improvements provide climbing wall assemblies that may be easily assembled to produce a desirable climbing wall structure having few framework components.
