Team TRUBLUE

We caught up with representatives from two climbing gyms that have hosted major speed climbing competitions in the past year to find out their thoughts on the growth of the sport, the behind-the-scenes preparations that went into organizing a speed climbing competition, and their plans for hosting future competitions. 

Team USA’s John Brosler talks about his journey to becoming the fastest American man in climbing, the upcoming 2024 Olympics Games, and how his training changes between different climbing disciplines.

There’s a good chance that is not the first word that pops into your head when you think about auto belays. One argument that we hear from gym owners against using auto belays is that they are counter-productive to building a tight-knit climbing community. But that’s not the way that pro climber and gym owner Chris Sharma sees it.

TRUBLUE is thrilled to announce that we’ve been selected to sponsor Emma Hunt. Emma is one of the fastest climbers on the planet, an extraordinary person, and a USA Climbing teammate. In this conversation, we learn about Emma, how she trains, and what she likes to do when she’s not climbing.

In this video Chris Sharma explains how he uses TRUBLUE Auto Belays to train at his newly opened state of the art climbing gym, Sharma Climbing Madrid, including these three main tips: mileage, campusing and just climb!
