FAQ

Got questions?

Here's what people ask us most.

No. Board Theory is a focused climbing training cell. We have MoonBoard, Kilter Board, and a custom spray wall — that's it. No weight room, no cardio machines, no smoothie bar. This is a dedicated space for climbers who want to train hard on boards.

We recommend intermediate-level experience (V3+ bouldering). These are training boards with fixed holds and steep angles — they're designed for progression, not learning the basics. Every member completes a required orientation session before getting access.

We use Kisi smart locks. Once you're a member, your phone becomes your key. Open the Kisi app, tap to unlock, and you're in. No physical key card, no PIN code. The system logs every entry for security and session tracking.

Safety is non-negotiable. All members complete a mandatory orientation covering equipment use, emergency protocols, and facility rules. The space is equipped with 12-inch crash pads, security cameras (common areas only), and an emergency call system. We also maintain a max occupancy limit.

We're securing a location in the Fox Valley, IL area. Final address will be announced to founding members first. We're targeting a space that's accessible, well-ventilated, and has the ceiling height to do these boards justice.

Yes — one guest per visit. Guests must sign a digital waiver before entry, and you're responsible for them during their visit. Guest access is included in your membership at no extra charge.
