13th Flatlander’s Fling Climbing Competition

The Starbucks on 10th Street, just across the street from the Adventure Program, has joined the Fling as a sponsor. Not only can you get good coffee here, their service is top notch; we’ve been to a lot of coffee shops and this particular Starbucks is in the top 3 for service.

Mad Rock, makers of solid climbing shoes and climbing equipment, is now sponsoring the Fling. If you need climbing shoes and don’t think good shoes should cost $100, then you need to look at Mad Rock.

The Great Outdoor Provision Company, with their store right here in Greenville, (and stores across the state) has agreed to sponsor this year’s Fling. GOPC, as they are affectionately called, wants you go get outside and if the gear you use ever breaks, they make sure you are taken care of.  Besides selling gear, they often bring top notch outdoor athletes to speak, often for free.

The Triangle Rock Club, just outside Cary, NC. is sponsoring the Fling. They have agreed to donate several punch passes which will allow you (if you are lucky enough!) to climb their walls.

The TRC has over 9,000 sq. feet of climbing terrain, from wicked easy to super steep overhangs, resulting in often over 100 routes! View their webpage for more information and pictures.
