Collaboration Between Sender One Climbing and COROS
In an innovative partnership, Sender One Climbing, a prominent climbing gym chain in Southern California, has teamed up with COROS, a leading company in sports wearables. This alliance is focused on transforming how climbers utilize technology to monitor their performance and training progress. With this collaboration, Sender One's expert coaches and staff will actively provide insights to help refine COROS's wearables, ensuring they meet the specific needs of climbers.
Climbers often require specialized information that goes beyond the standard metrics tracked by fitness devices. While wearable technology has become standard practice for a variety of athletes, its application in climbing is just starting to gain traction. COROS currently offers modes specifically for Outdoor Climb, Indoor Climb, and Bouldering, and is developing unique features tailored to the needs of climbers. These features aim to deliver critical data such as route grades, climbing volume, and detailed analyses of active and recovery periods.
The collaboration signifies a two-way exchange of expertise. COROS has established a reputation by engaging with top climbers to develop technologies suitable for outdoor and challenging climbing scenarios, including multi-pitch and big-wall experiences. With Sender One's involvement, COROS is committed to including the insights of accomplished climbing coaches who offer a fresh perspective on the indoor climbing experience, thereby enriching the developmental process of their wearable technology.
Alice Kao, co-founder and CEO of Sender One Climbing, expressed that the essence of Sender One lies in helping individuals discover themselves through climbing. She emphasized the importance of overcoming the mental barriers that many climbers face, stating that data and insights derived from COROS technology can help athletes understand their actual progress better. Sender One aims to foster a strong community, and COROS's devices will enhance this communal experience by allowing climbers to track their advancements and share these milestones with peers.
Lewis Wu, the CEO of COROS, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the unique demands of climbing compared to other sports. He recognized the importance of incorporating input from experienced climbers and coaches, which is essential to ensure the wearables cater specifically to climbers' needs.
In addition to product development, both Sender One and COROS aim to make climbing more accessible to a broader audience. As part of this initiative, COROS community members will have access to complimentary day passes for climbing at Sender One gyms. This initiative underlines the commitment both brands have towards encouraging participation in the sport, regardless of one’s climbing background.
