I don't really think there is a general best length. For me personally, I cut them just enough to not be too short, but don't leave enough to hear the nails on the wall. If they are even a little bit longer than that, they tend to sometimes get bent backwards while grabbing the holds, which obviously is not very pleasant.

For me the fit of climbing shoes has always been the same based on the shoes. I haven't changed my shoe size since I started climbing a few years ago, even when I try on shoes I already have, like the Evolv Shaman 2, I still find that the best fit is the same size I got when I first bought them a few years ago.

Can I go bouldering alone?

General Climbing   ·   3 Answers   ·   Write an answer

Yes, you can go bouldering alone in a climbing gym. Bouldering in climbing gym doesn't require any special safety equipment as the gyms have everything that is needed.

Bouldering outdoors, on the other hand, would require at least one more person for safety reasons. The person would be your spotter, and would be there to help in case anything goes wrong.
