Climbing gym · Canberra, Australia
BlocHaus Fyshwick grades, explained
BlocHaus's first gym, open since 2017 on Dairy Road in Fyshwick, Canberra. It has about 850 m² of Blocz climbing surface, an LED MoonBoard, a 45° spray wall, campus and peg boards, an 8 m padded slackline and a yoga room, plus FamilyHaus, a separate area where kids aged 5–12 climb with their families. There is untimed parking on site and bike racks out the front.
Bouldering grades
Boulders are graded by hold colour, from blue (easiest) through red, purple, black and yellow to white (hardest), and neighbouring colours overlap on BlocHaus's chart. BlocHaus doesn't publish V-grades, so the ranges below are our estimate: we spread the six colours over the range bouldering gyms usually set (VB to about V10), keeping the order and overlaps on BlocHaus's colour chart and its competition divisions, which pair blue and red, purple and black, and yellow and white.
| Level | V-scale | ≈ Font |
|---|---|---|
| Blue | VB–V1 | 3–5B |
| Red | V0–V3 | 4B–6A+ |
| Purple | V2–V4 | 5B–6B+ |
| Black | V3–V5 | 5C+–6C+ |
| Yellow | V5–V8 | 6C–7B+ |
| White | ≥ V7 | ≥ 7A+ |
BlocHaus grades the same way at all 5 of its gyms. All BlocHaus gyms and grades
Estimated by Gear Loop. The gym publishes only the order of its colours, so these ranges are our best guess from its chart and climbers' descriptions. Gyms reset and regrade often, and grades vary between setters, so treat this as a guide and check the boards when you visit.
