Sport climbing, once perceived as a fringe activity, is now experiencing tremendous growth,
becoming one of the most popular modern sports of the past two decades.
This young and mixed discipline attracts a diverse audience thanks to its physical and
mental benefits. It can be practiced both in nature and in urban environments, indoors, and
represents a sport where equality reigns, with men and women competing on the same
walls.
With 39% of its practitioners under the age of 18, sport climbing promotes inclusion and
environmental ethics, becoming a favorite playground for para-athletes. More than 25 million
people across 150 countries participate in this sport, which combines intense effort,
concentration, and self-improvement (source). In France, the number of regular practitioners
reached more than 1.5 million in 2020, a notable increase supported by its inclusion in the
Tokyo 2020 Olympics, which brought this sport into the spotlight (source).
In this context, EP Climbing, a world leader in climbing walls and equipment, announces two
major innovations: the launch of its innovative bouldering wall, the Boulder Titan, and the
publication of a white paper on climbing accessibility, highlighting its commitment to making
this sport accessible to everyone.
