The Treadwall is a rotating climbing wall that gives rock climbing an effortless twist as it requires no safety harness or prior knowledge for usage. In place of a stationary rock wall is a movable one that scales down as you climb up.

This enables the machine to cater to both the amateur or seasoned rock climber, or just about anyone desiring a good workout. It operates at a normal walking pace, courtesy of the Natural Pace technology.

Only one step separates the climber from the floor and stepping down brings the machine to a halt. A Polar heart rate technology is integrated into its counter-time unit, a good measure for turning a fun activity into a heart-pumping workout.

 Those looking for a more intensive workout can adjust the difficulty settings, which regulate the ascent rate and steepness of the wall.  This enables a user to switch seamlessly between a high intensity and low intensity workout for interval training.

 Since actual rock-climbing is a sport which exercises almost every muscle group, the Treadwall is advantageous as an all-in-one gym that provides both aerobic and anaerobic workouts. It is compact enough to fit into your living room or outside on the lawn, and retails for only US$10,000.
