Is this a good purchase for a first climbing/bouldering wall?
Hi... im buying my rock climber friend a present for his birthday. We have an outdoor roof with a large wall and thought this would be a great present for him. Is this a good start for the beginning of a climbing wall? or does someone recommend something else... note this will be installed out doors on brick.
thanks!

I'm not sure about installing these holds, or any for that matter, on brick. Generally holds like this would be attached to a plywood wall built specifically for bouldering, or to a concrete wall with special threaded anchors drilled into the concrete. A good resource for you and your friend might be the "How to Build a Home Bouldering Wall" book put out by Metolius. You can get that in .pdf form at this link: http://www.metoliusclimbing.com/pdf/How-to-Build-a-Home-Bouldering-Wall.pdf Hope that was helpful, happy bouldering!
