Walltopia supports Route Setting Development as Principal Sponsor

  • March 26, 2026
Estimated read time: 2 minutes

We are proud to announce the new principal sponsor of Route Setting Development: Walltopia! With their support, we look forward to bringing our nationally-recognised setting qualification pathway to many more new and experienced setters.

Route Setting Development advances the safety, professionalism and creativity of route setting through national training pathways for both boulder and roped setters. RSD qualifications cover essential skills and knowledge in safety, working at height and competent, efficient setting. Courses are available to everyone from brand new setters to the most experienced setters looking to gain or renew their certification.

Walltopia has been building the world’s coolest climbing walls since 1998.

From boutique gyms to mega facilities, we design and build modern climbing spaces that combine striking aesthetics with high octane performance.

Through Holdtopia we distribute 50+ leading holds and volume brands, and with Climbmat we supply EN-standard safety flooring.

We help routesetters and wall owners bring their design vision and spaces to life, while our in-house production and assembly teams ensure premium materials and precision installation – creating facilities that look great for as long as the climbing addiction lasts!

Sandra Adler, Walltopia UK and Ireland, said, “We are psyched to support Route Setting Development! Together with Walltopia initiatives like Shapers Showdown contest and HRT’s “By Artist” grips range, we’re privileged to cultivate the next generation of artists shaping the future of climbing.”
