8. No climbing or standing under another boulderer.

9. Do not climb on a route that intersects another boulderer.

10. Observers must stay off the padded floors. Boulders not actively climbing/spotting shall remain conscientious to ensure that where they are sitting or standing will not impede the landing/fall zones of other boulderers on the bouldering wall.

11. No swinging or jumping from the Bouldering Wall is permitted.

12. Vertical Rock Tysons advises participants and observers to wear a helmet. Participants and observers not wearing a helmet do so at their own risk.

13. Only Vertical Rock Tyson’s designated employees, or designated contractors, are permitted to teach safety skills/techniques, adjust ropes, anchors, hand/footholds, padded flooring, climbing routes and climbing apparatuses.

14. Please do not place or store bags/backpacks, clothing, water bottles, or any other items on the padded floor.

15. Backflips, front flips, cartwheels or any other type of gymnastic activities are prohibited.

*Spotting- A spotter is someone that helps a boulderer land on their feet if they come off the wall during a climb in an uncontrolled or awkward manner. A spotter can reduce the potential for injury and assist boulders achieve a more suitable landing. A spotter’s job is not to catch a falling boulderer, but rather redirect them to the ground.
