The Front’s sister company Vertical Solutions is behind the stunning walls in all of our locations. Vertical Solutions was founded based on the simple fact that no one was building what The Front needed in 2005.

Front owner Dustin Buckthal envisioned a space that broke the mold of what an indoor climbing gym looked like and served a wider community than ever before. With a little convincing, he enlisted ex-pro climber and friend John Stack and his trusty hammer to build out The Front’s now-iconic wood walls.
