Gear N’ Beer

  • Ascent Climbing Gym 470 James Street, Suite 004 New Haven United States (map)

GEAR ‘N’ BEER

Turn your lightly used outdoor equipment into cash -- or swap it for new adventure gear.

HOW DOES THIS WORK?

It’s like a free community yard sale for outdoor and sports equipment. It’s free to sell and swap!

Bring any outdoor gear (excluding weapons and firearms), decide a price, and sell or swap it with anyone who wants to buy or trade! The price and transaction details are up to you, Venmo or cash recommended.

This time around Ascent will also have some deep discounts on our outdoor climbing gear!

Ascent will provide tables and masking tape price tags. Equipment inspection and transaction processing is your responsibility.

ROPE & CLIMBING GEAR WASH

Ascent Outdoors will be at the event with a station to wash your rope! We’ll also have nail polish to help differentiate your gear — and we’ll have rope-safe markers so you can refresh the middle mark on your rope.

ASK A GUIDE

Ascent Outdoors will be available for any burning questions relating to climbing in the outdoors! Our guides are experienced and stoked to help out with anything you need!

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER

Be sure to double check all gear before you buy. You alone are responsible for your sales and purchases. Any faulty equipment or gear is not the responsibility of Ascent Climbing Gym or Ascent Climbing. We must discourage the sale and purchase of PPE softgoods like used ropes and harnesses. When in doubt, refer to manufactures instructions for inspection and retirement of safety equipment.

FREE BEER & DRINKS

We’ll have some free beers on hand (ages 21+) along with some n/a options and seltzer. Climbing, using gym equipment and the sauna is not permitted after drinking any alcoholic beverage.
