NICROS - News

As our 14th year anniversary gift, Nicros has finally received the
opportunity to have a sign marking our building. Gone are the days of
confused truck drivers ambling around St. Paul, talking on cell phones in
an attempt to find our facility. The first sign said "Wall Climbing
Systems" instead of "Climbing Wall System" but the new sign has been made and put in its place. We are very excited with the new construction and layout of St. Paul and the new Phalen Blvd. to have this sign marking our entryway.

Nicros recently sponsored a final problem at the ABS Nationals which took place at Earth Treks Climbing Center in Timonium, MD. This could possibly be the largest bouldering competition in the United States ever! An awesome time was had by all. Check out the results here http://www.absnationals.org/

Climbing accidents occur across this country both in climbing gyms and on amusement park portable climbing walls due to the climber forgetting to clip into the Auto Belay before climbing. This innovative product will warn you and your customers about the potential failure to clip into an Auto Belay. With the use of cutting edge technology, the unit determines if a climber is on the wall without being clipped into the Auto Belay.

If this event occurs, an alarm will sound and a strobe light placed over the route will activate. The height at which the activation of the system occurs and the type of alarms can be customized to fit your facilities needs. If you need more than the basic system we will offer an upgraded system as well. One of the added options of this system includes a signal at the front desk or counter which will activate to let every employee know that there is a potential fall hazard in the facility. Call for pricing and availability for both of these Auto Belay Safety System™(patent pending). At Nicros, we think you and your customers make better climbers than craters.
