So with that in mind, here we have a few rules that must be adhered to at all times while on our course. Feel free to have a look and if things are still unclear, head over the FAQ and try to find your answers there.
- 3 points of contact - Maintain 3 points of contact on the climbing obstacles at all times (that’s 2 feet and 1 hand or 2 hands and 1 foot)
- Weights and Lifting Equipment (16 + or with adult supervision) - We offer a wide array of weight lifting equipment for your use - however if not used properly it can lead to serious injury (and damage to the equipment)! Please ensure anyone under the age of 16 is supervised by an adult - and feel free to ask a staff member if you're trying for the first time!
- Salmon Ladder - A popular obstacle in our gym but it’s a little technical. We ask that you can do at least 5 pull ups and that you have a staff supervise before the first attempt!
- Occupancy Limit - Maximum of 5 people on our spider crawl, dip walk, and slip ramp at one time! Ask a staff member on your arrival which obstacles those are.
- Slip Ramp - If you climb up you’ve committed to going off the back! There is no sliding down the slip ramp. We offer a big mat for jumping down (if jumping down break your fall by landing on your feet and butt) or 3 ladders if you want to climb down (remembering the 3 points of contact!)
- Feet below your shoulders - At the OCRA we are ocr racers and not acrobats! For your safety please do not flip or hang upside on the obstacles. We keep our feet below our shoulders at all times.
- Hanging Obstacles - Our green rig, orange rig and multi-rig are known as hanging obstacles because all of the obstacles hang from the rigs. Do not climb on top of the rigs, there’s nothing to see up there.
- Bathroom - We keep it clean for you, please keep it clean for us!
- Food - Bringing your own food is A-Okay, but make sure it stays off the course. We have tables and couches for you to lounge and enjoy.
- Big Blue Floor Mat - The big blue floor mat is a 'no run' zone. It's located under our tarzan swing where people are swinging in the air and there is an increased risk of getting kicked in the head. Do not cross.
- Climbing Rope - As named the ropes are for climbing and not swinging around. Please only climb!
- The Most Important Rule of All - Have Fun!
