I have a tension board and campus board currently and looking to fill in the remaining space with a wall that ideally could be used for ARCing, warmups, technique training and for the kids (2 girls currently 21 months and 4.5 months). Since they are not yet climbing I have no idea what angle would be suitable for kids. Current equipment is: -Full Size Tension board (sets A/B) at 40 degrees (I can fold down top part and adjust anywhere up to degrees as well, which takes about 4 minutes to convert) -10 row Campus Board w/ Medium Tension Rungs Currently I boulder around V6 @40 Degrees on the tension board and outdoor sport/trad hardest sends 5.12+. I live in the front range and most of my hard climbing is vertical to slightly overhanging (clear creek, s platte, Eldo, Flatirons). The space I have is 10.5' tall and a corner with just over 5' on the short side and 8' on the long side (see bad photo). My initial thought is 5 degree wall for the 8' second with a vertical for the 5' section and making the bottom 4' a 5 degree slab for the kiddos that could eventually go back to vertical once they are bigger. Is 5 degrees too shallow for warm up/arcing. I have read some people who say they ARC at 20/30 degrees perhaps the tension board holds don't lend themselves well to that or I'm just a weakling, but with smaller holds it seems reasonable to me. Corner for new additionTension Board at 20 degrees and campus boardTension Board at 40 degrees

Nice setup! Do you get the tension board back to 0 deg?
How about connecting the whole surface to an ARC plane? 5 deg wall left part, footholds below campus board (+ some sidepulls, roofjugs..) for crossing into the Tension board, and switching fartlek style between those 2 areas. Even traverse the window. You could experiment with tiny feet/holds in the left part, and some jugs for the kids.

Great idea, I was planning to put some footholds below the campus board so I can traverse into the Tension board and do bigger circuits.
