Hello Climbing Community 

I am searching for a co-founder who shares my enthusiasm to create the ultimate improvement solution for intermediate climbers and possesses a strong work ethic.

As the owner of a climbing training center in Northern California, I have already developed a functioning MVP for an innovative climbing training app. I am confident that our app has the potential to revolutionize the way people approach climbing training.

To bring this vision to life, I am looking for a co-founder who shares my passion for climbing and wants to join me in creating the ultimate improvement solution for intermediate climbers.

We are seeking a technical or creative co-founder who can help elevate our app from a functioning MVP to a powerhouse product. Above all, we need someone who is committed to putting in the effort and has a relentless drive for success.

If you possess a strong work ethic, a passion for climbing, and are excited to embark on this thrilling journey, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Hi Nathen

It's all JavaScript (React ReactNative Node JS TypeScript PosgreSQL and AWS). 

After testing the idea with our IG followers we know the product solves a real challenge climbers face. 

We are growing our followership at over 150 subs per day Organically. 

We know our customers because we work with them every day. 

With over ten years of coaching experience and a passion for seeing climbers improve we are confident we have built the best improvement system for intermediate climbers. 

Thanks for having a look. Let me know your thoughts!

Followership growth doesn't matter amigo. Show us the results. Does it work? Show us a V5 climber sending a V8. 

Show us a 5.10 climber sending a 5.12.

Hello Grug, 

You are correct about the results and our athletes see results, fast.  As for followership, only quality content can grow organically.  If people find the content useful they share it. If they share it, you grow. 

We own a training center in Northern California where we get to hone and refine our improvement system. Memberships are expensive. Our retention is very high. People stay because they are getting results. V4 to V6 and 5.11- to 5.12- in under 4 months is common. 

Are you a developer?

My kids would definitely use this app.

Is it compatible with cloven hoofs? The epidermicentric nature of most apps on the market in 2023 relegates them to less-than-cutting-edge technological solutions.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
