Do not come here for bouldering. Routes are poorly designed, mats feel super unsafe and there are no beginner problems whatsoever.Ive been bouldering a few months and could only complete 1 problem.

I was there for 10 minutes before one of the associates there decided to treat us like we were kids don’t waste your money

Had my son’s birthday party here today. It was a blast. Ages 6 and up can enjoy a good time here and getting in a sweat.It’s also a really good way to make sure your kids are tired at bedtime.

Absolutely awesome! Clean place great set up awesome employees.

Relatively small compared to Summit but friendly staff and interesting walls. Not sure how often they change out their routes. They have a bouldering cave upstairs which is kind of fun. The location of this spot is a bonus since there are all kinds of bars and restaurants nearby. I will probably be back.

Very kind staff and lots of fun options for climbing! The atmosphere is very welcoming 👍🏼

We had an amazing time here. The people were very friendly and climbing was easy

Very kid friendly exactly what my family was looking for had a blast plenty of selection in auto belays and a short course to show you how to belay someone else!

Really badly made short dark rock climbing gym. The routes are badly built, the holds are bad, the staff is not capable of giving good safety advice for novice climbers, who are often seeing using the Grigri (belay device) in positions never thought of before. I advise the owners to visit larger gyms to see what a climbing center nowadays look like and update their safety training.

So much fun! I love this place for rock climbing, Its definitely a must for an active date night. . Its not the biggest facility but its definitely big enough to keep you busy for a few hours.Water is available but bring a bottle because their cups are pretty small and can spill easily.

Great place for kids and adults. Went with my bestie and had a blast so I took my kid and she loved it. She decided to have a birthday party here. Youngest kid was 3 (full body harness) up to the age 12. They all loved it. There isnt a set time limit to climb so they happily wore themselves out.

Didnt get the Friday 50% off and would not give me face value for Groupon, spent $30 on a Groupon and said if expired would receive face value which was the $30 paid for the Groupon. Only received $22 value wouldnt give me credit for the difference and wouldnt give the Friday 50% discount. Rip off. Enjoy that $ well never be back. Sending complaint to the attorney general for the state of Texas.

My sister and I went while on vacation and it was awesome! The staff were really helpful and a general blast to be around. Most definitely will recommend!

Awesome, staff very friendly. Place clean, just the right # of visitors. We wish you were closer to downtown Dallas. We will be back!

Staff really polite and professional. Family had a great time and the activities were entertaining. We will come back soon ♥.

Bought a Groupon and tanner and Brian accepted it seamlessly and moved us right along to get set up!Sure the walls were 25 feet high, unlike others which are much higher, but this is great for beginners.I like how they teach you the basics then let you do your own thing if they trust you got it.TIP: seriously, use the Groupon because it includes the full gear and shoes for free, even the basic training. Which groupons for other places usually don’t always include.

Great place to visit if youre looking for something fun and active to do. I always have an awesome time coming here and the employees are friendly as well! Would recommend to anyone who is looking for entertainment within Arlington. Make sure to look at their website for special discounts and deals!

Have not been here in many years, but was always a blast when I was in high school.

My kids had the best time here! The staff were all so kind and extremely helpful. Clean and fun atmosphere, even during Covid. Best family day trip around. Well definitely be back soon!

Great routes for any level, and they provide the necessary gear. friendly staff and community, they have a gym to the side, and the option to climb with or without ropes.

Great for kids and adults! You can get a great workout during this activity. The kids loved this and it was their first time.

My bf and I had an amazing time. Staff was friendly, informative, and encouraging. The people climbing there were also supportive. Great environment and an amazing variety of walls to climb. Would love to go back for some lessons and more practice! This place is amazing and recommend checking them out!

My kids loved it! The staff were friendly and helpful and did a great job ensuring that everyone stayed safe. Definitely recommend spending an afternoon here.

Needs more sanitizing done in the property, and ropes after use.Great place to go,.Very great and happy employees.

The staff was patient and understanding when teaching. Our kids always have a great time and reach milestones.

Staff super nice! Super nice! Definitely gonna go back! Highly recommend!

Great place, the staff is super friendly! I had so much fun. Highly recommended!!

The kids had fun!

Fun and great price with grouponGreat Service

Excellent display of customer service. Everyone on staff spoke to us at some point of visit.

Their actual website hours are different for the holiday than the ones listed here on google. Little frustrating thinking the website be the more accurate one of two. So make sure you call to know what time they’ll actually be open.

The prices were excellent, but the route difficulty was pretty inconsistent, and as others have noted, difficult to distinguish in areas from other routes using the same color. Not a huge deal, but annoying nonetheless.What was extremely dangerous and scary about this place was that they seemed to care very little about safety - I notified that they use double lock carabiners on most of their routes, when I would expect a more standard, triple lock. The staff was not regularly engaged in watching the climbing area, but was chilling behind the desk or on their phones. And most notably, one of the staff was extremely lax while teaching a new climber to belay using a grigri. The newcomer, while consistently holding the tail of the rope above his head rather than down in the locked position, took out his phone and was taking photos of his climber, all while the staff member was standing right next to him!!While the Groupon was a good deal ($22.50 for two climbers + gear), if the staff doesn’t enforce the rules with the easy things, how can I be assured that the hidden things (quality of the support bars, internal structure of the wall, age of the rental gear etc) aren’t being let go as well?EDIT: A member of the DynoRock management team contacted me and asked me to detail the events above. They stated that the details would be provided to their staff members so that they can improve on safety.

Staff is a bunch of kids who don’t get more involved than they have to. Facility is very dusty, needs a deep clean. It’s the only climbing in Arlington. I love climbing, but I’d rather drive to Summit.- 10 months laterThey’ve improved the space a lot! Clean and tidy. New signage and new routes. Love it! Changing from 3 to 4 stars

A great rock gym! Im not a serious climber, so Im not too picky, but they seem great to me. Bouldering and auto belay are two of my favorite features. Ive only had positive experiences here. Very laid back during the week; busier but still fun on the weekend. Enjoy!!

We had a great time and the staff was really helpful!!

Really big place and the staff there are awesome and helpful if you need to ask question. Personally tires chips are no my favorite cause it rub really bad on white clothes and light color cloths.

My family took brought me for my birthday, and we had an amazing time! The staff was very friendly and helpful the entire time! Definitely will be going back!

Pretty good place. Great prices, friendly staff, relatively covid considerate, lots of variety and difficulty.

Great prices. Great walls to climb. Very friendly staff.Brought my son here so he and I could climb. Hes having a blast. So much for him to climb. Prices are very affordable!Staff is outstanding. They made sure we understood the rules, procedures and worked with us to make sure we had equipment that worked for us.

We really enjoyed going to this location and even purchased a month’s pass. It’s a ton of fun, but we did start to notice a lot of loose holds and General lack of upkeep which was why we decided not to continue paying for a membership.I would definitely go back if they either made the passes more affordable or offered a bit more as far as experience and upkeep!Definitely still worth a day visit for a fun afternoon!

We had the best experience! Brought 5 kids ages 2-19. Not really conducive towards ages 5 below but my almost 4 year old had a blast (had to be rescued once by a staff) member but he was awesome.The staff is super duper helpful and friendly and they have a chalk wall for little kids to color on. If I had to do it again, I would leave the little ones at home, but the 11, 18 and 19 year old had SO much fun!

The Groupon coupons was great. You can easily be here for 1-2 hours

Place was great. Took my 7 year old and 12 year old and they had a great time. This was our first time at a rock climbing park and the staff was very helpful. They walked the kids through technique, and showed my wife and I how to spot for them. Overall wonderful experience. Lots of fun. Definitely going back.On a side note, these people are taking COVID-19 seriously. Staff wear masks, and sanitizer is provided as soon as you walk in and throughout the building. They are also limiting occupancy. I would suggest calling ahead.

Very nice and helpful staff

Dino-Rock is too fun. I have been here a handful of times and will definitely go back again soon! It is fun to have a partner to go with but several of the climbs are set up for doing it alone. You can rent everything that you need. I do recommend getting the shoes if you did not wear proper ones!

It was great and the customer service is excellent.

Its a great place to go for a date. Or if you want to get out as a family. Big plus is its local and kind of hidden from the public.

Had a blast!Customer service was amazing! 👍

Really cool spot! Some walls have the automated belay (dunno if thats the right spelling) system. We had a Birthday there and definitely brought some added fun to the place but I would definitely go again with friends!

Dyno-Rock is a great old-school climbing gym. Be ready for stiff grades if, like me, you also climb at one of the bigger gyms in DFW. The Staff is friendly and watchful. My buddy and I like to do a traverse around the perimeter - great for building endurance and improving technique. Talk to Glenn when you visit; hes excited to show their new routes and tell about all their plans.

My mom had so much fun here she broke a foot. LITERALLY! WON’T BE BACK. Not because the place was so awesome. Lol. Mostly because I watched it happen. So I’ve got bad memories. Overall it’s a great place to go rock climbing or do some weight training. They had a little CrossFit area that was pretty sweet. So I’d definitely go back to lift but not rock climb.

This place is loads of fun with really nice staff! I enjoyed my time here and the entrance was pretty cheap since you can find them on Groupon. Cool way to have fun and get a killer work out. It’s fun for all ages. Your kids can plan and climb alone. Really cool.

Upon entering this establishment, one worker ignored us and another was rude and unprofessional. Instead of explaining politely waivers needed to be filled out by legal guardians for the two minors with us, the employee cut us off while talking to tell us what needed to be done. The facility is fine. But the employees need trained on how to talk to customers. The experience wasnt worth the drive or money.

I enjoy climbing here. There is a bouldering gym closer to me but my heart is in top-roping. The walls change often and the problems are challenging without being overtly discouraging.

It’s a great place to get experience climbing. We always have a fun time.

The staff has a sorry training and they set behind the desk all day, do nothing. You need to be a experience in rock climbing if you go because you’re basically on you’re own. There’s no safety or real training. I plan to seek out other rock climbing locations... dyno will be a last option for me.

Had a blast Nichol was awesome. Thank you

All in all it was about 17.50$ for the rock climbing and a harness, which wasnt too bad. They have a great variety of walls to climb, which vary in difficulty from extremely easy to extremely hard, which makes this place good for a family fun day or for someone with experience who wants a little challenge. Overall I had a great time and would suggest it for anyone looking to rock climb.

My kids and I attended a friends birthday party here, and had a blast. There were lots of stations to use, and many levels of difficulty. The only downside was the black stains on their clothes from the padding they have on the floor. We will definitely go back, just in older clothes next time!

I bought a day pass here with Groupon and Id have to say, it was worth the price! The majority of the establishment was available for use with accessible water fountains. The staff was able to assist us and ask any questions ( The training comes at no additional charge! ) Although this is listed as an indoor center, they leave the garage door opens. This led to a few mosquitoes bites, so I would recommend bringing some sort of repellent.

Best family outing. Theyre knowledgeable and helpful. Again this makes for a great family fun night.

Looks pretty shady when you pull up to it but it’s all good fun on the inside. They have great Groupon deals!

Wonderful rock climbing gym. They offer regular walls, some with auto-belay and a bouldering wall as well. Plenty of challenges for advanced climbers but also enough options for beginners to enjoy.I went using a groupon and I know plenty of people using groupon are upset because they dont read that they need to call 24 hours in advance to let them know youll be coming in. I was given an introductory lesson in a small group which gave me all the information I needed to climb for the first time.I have no complaints and am excited to go again soon.

I went here once several years ago. I dont remember too much about it. I considered going tomorrow because my parents live in Arlington and I am visiting, but all these negative reviews are convincing me to take the trip to Summit. Yall need to fix things.

Great first experience, was helped really good by the people there.

Routes are well set but not as strongly rated (V3 more like a V6 or 7. I climbed a 5.9 that was composed almost exclusively of pockets and monopockets and chips for feet...5.9s are usually more forgiving).Theres lots of rope routes too and some sweet looking lead action.You are, however, forced to anchor into the ground when belaying top rope. I have a problem with this because it makes climbers uneducated about how to properly belay and catch and certainly doesnt prepare and educate them for outdoor climbing or more advanced gym climbs. I could see if my belayer was making egregious and dangerous mistakes how anchoring would have kept me safer, however, my belayer was properly belaying.Yet i was still asked to come off the wall with only a few moves left in the problem because my belayer wasnt anchored to the ground.A clmbing gym that chooses the easy way by forcing to anchor people instead if teaching them proper technique is one that sacrifices education for the sake of comfort and speed. Its also unfair to experienced climbers to be asked to come down from a problem when theyre doing the right thing. I think this gym has great potential but punishing experienced climbers cant be the way to grow.

Great, and exhausting, family outing! Got the info we needed and were left to have fun! Much better than being hovered over for the entire time we were there.

Bouldering mats is taped up and have holes in some if you landed wrong you could injure yourself. There was a loose rock on the climbing wall. The belay system is updated so it auto locks.All in all fix the safety of this facility and you could earn more business but I would not go again.

I am an avid outdoor climber with good experience and go to another gym 2-3 times a week. My first impression of Dyno Rocks is very hit and miss.First the bad:This gym seems to be geared more towards inexperienced climber at best.They use GriGri+ with the panic handle and explain very poorly how to belay in a safe manner.Our guy, not once, told our group to NEVER let go of the brake end of the rope. This is a huge red flag!!! Never ever for any reason let go of the brake end of the rope!!! He Never even mentioned PBUS or PLUS methods!He kept on explaining the anti-panic feature of the GriGri+ so much that even though he told us to lower slowly, that one of the new guys in our group kept trying to drop us and if it were not for the anti panic system of the belay device one of us should have been going to the hospital that night. I had to quickly explain a safe method of belay myself. Not cool.If you belay like they taught us and then go to any other gym which uses a standard GriGri... there is a high chance you can kill someone!!!Many holds were loose and rotating.Many routes were graded incocsetantly and confusing. Some even just ran out of holds before the top.The holds which are rock like and not plastic and worn and very slippery.Now the good:Gym staff were friendly and welcoming if not slightly non observant.The route grades were not soft gym grades and more true to outdoor grades.Some of the worn out slippery holds are more like real life and will make you a better overall climber. Annoying but a positive!!Some of the inconsistency of the routes mirrors outdoor climbs and makes you think and climb better.The roof for lead climbing looked fun but I didnt get a chance to try it that night.There is a really fun chimney in the back right corner.Overall a cool place to go if you know what youre doing.But as a cautionary... Of you are new to climbing please please make sure you fully understand belay technique before you climb at any other gym that uses standard GriGri.

Great gym, good bouldering routes, good price on the day pass ($12) chill friendly staff. Route ratings seem pretty accurate compared to other gyms Ive been in around the country. I am definitely looking forward to coming back next time Im in town.

Plenty of climbs for everyone @ all different levels. Find your rating & its a great feeling making it to the top of a challenge!

Great place to climb for beginners and experienced. I would advise to take a spotter just because there is more you can do. If you are buying a Groupon they do request that you book a specific time. Reasonable price as well.

I bought a Groupon to try out this place and Im glad I did. My boyfriend and I went around 7pm on Saturday. It wasnt very busy which made it great for our first time. The staff was very helpful and explained everything thoroughly. I was nervous and she was very patient in helping. The rock climbing choices are various ones for different levels so theres something for everyone. The only reason I give 4 stars is because there were several self auto belay that were not working.

I have loved Dyno-Rock since being a teenager. Great addition to Arlington and always a fun time!

Thank you for a perfect day.

Its awesome. Make sure to check Groupon as you can get 50% off if you get a double or 4 people Groupon.

I came here summer 2018. It would be a decent gym if there were no other options in the area... but that is not the case. Route settting was ok at best, reminded me of my college days where they would let people set routes who had been climbing for less than a month. From an experienced climber- person at the front desk was quite clueless and tried to give me belay pointers which were totally unsafe and inefficient... I ignored him and played nice so I could get a session in. 3 holds spun on me while I was here, completely unsafe and unacceptable. For reference I’ve been climbing at summit for 4 years and have only spun one hold the entire time. I asked some other climbers about how frequently they change up the routes and the consensus was “every once in a while”. I will not go back. Hoping Summit buys em out and turns it into a serious establishment. If you’re actually into rock climbing, drive the extra 10-20 minutes and go to summit rock climbing gyms.

Really fun rock climbing experience. They have plenty of walls for all skill levels. They also have a bouldering area as well.

Great climbing gym. The staff are extremely laid back and friendly. Other gyms are too high maintenance with their staffs being annoying. Dyno rock has created a great culture for experienced as well as novice climbers. There is always someone that can give you good climbing tips.

Great spot with a friendly climbing community. Were always willing to help and welcome newcomers into the world of climbing, and I myself offer technique and climbing health/strength specific training, in a casual or scheduled setting. Talk to us and well show you the ropes.

This is a fun place. Staff was very nice and accommodating. You can tell they are all hard core climbers, but were very patient with the newbies and kids. If you want a new challenge this is a good place

On almost every route I encountered a broken hold or it was loose and spinning. Also their website needs to be very very clear on telling you if you get a Groupon you must call a day ahead. But it is a really cool place and the people are nice and helpful

It was fun for my first time, and a great place to learn how to rock climb if youve never been before... Is definitely go back again!!

Was hoping for a decent local climbing gym after not having one within 100 miles for the last year. Overall was underwhelming. Almost no info given about the routes whatsoever, I wanted to boulder but what few routes they had were confusing and poorly marked. Also, floor is made out of rubber chips and really hurts when you fall even from a low height. Supposedly there is a traverse area somewhere, which would have been great if I had ever found it.

Great for all stages of your rock climbing career. There are about six auto-belays (which you can do by yourself) but a ton that require a belayer, so you might want to bring a friend you trust. Theres a section that has no ropes and another section only available to those with a membership. I used a Groupon ($20 for a day pass with gear included for 2 people) which is a crazy deal. Memberships are $65 per month with equipment but only $45 if you have your own harness/shoes. Staff was great and bathrooms were clean. The location is a little hidden but parking is right in front and the building is close to great restaurants. Another good this is once youve paid for the day, you have until closing to use the facilities, so you can leave and come back if you need a break. Would highly recommend.

Multiple old carabiners that needed to be retired because gates did not close on their own. When I brought this to the attention of the two chums working I was told “we are out of carabiners“ you have to lock them manually... Multiple holds on walls that were loose and spinning. Even exposed bolts on routes with sharp edges on the exposed bolts. Extremely unsafe gym. The guys working this past Sunday 3/17/19 were lousy and unhelpful, playing games on their cell phones behind the counter and not offering assistance to the multitude of beginners in this gym. I use to really enjoy this place but I am extremely disappointed in the lack of safety precautions...

Generally a great place but I had a disappointing experience today. It was my lack of not reading the fine print on the Groupon that you have to make a 24 hour advance appointment. I have been coming here for a couple of years and spent hundreds of dollars and maybe more than $1,000 here. I showed up today and they wouldn’t accept my Groupon since I hadn’t made a reservation which is a fairly recent policy. I asked that they make an exception and they refused. I would have understood if the place was packed but it wasn’t. I was explained that the policy was put in place for this reason and understand the policy but it would have been very easy to make an exception given there was only an hour and a half left until they closed and there were only 5-6 other customers climbing. In my opinion they showed very poor customer service in making me pay full price given the circumstances. I will search out other climbing venues in the future when my daughter wants to go rock climbing.

Nice walls all levels. Good people! Good prices

A ton of fun. Great lighting and hours. I wish they had more climbing stuff to buy.

Favorite place for our kids. Staff is always friendly and helpful.

LOVE CLIMBING HERE! lots of climb options. great for birthdays! also the are adding ninja warrior obstacles on in there upstairs area (coming soon)

Garbage.CONS: There are no ratings on routes which would be less of a problem if the routes werent completely random. Really dirty.Insanely unsafe. The staff reported falls all the time. Huge red flag but not surprising when looking at their belay system and training. While teaching us to belay, told me to just let go if somebody falls. Like holy ****. Never let your primary hand off the belay end of the rope. Ever. I dont care if your gym is geared toward kids birthday parties. When I brought this up he said the atc and grigri are different enough that somebody would naturally relearn that habit. Theyre really similar.PROS: cheap but in a gas station sushi kind of way

Great at giving orientation and ensuring everyone understands how to safely climb. Different level walls, awesome for big groups. Had fun!

We had a great time! My husband, son (14), and I had never been rock climbing before, but we will definitely be back. I read some reviews where Groupon purchasers had trouble making a reservation. We had no prob. Called on Sat, made a reservation for monday.

Don’t waste your time. Showed up, building was empty. We were told we needed a reservation to climb since we got a groupon. We drove from frisco and didn’t know their policy. My kids were so sad and they didn’t care less. My husband asked to talk to the manager and even waited around for her. When she showed up the whiny manager showed a teenage like attitude and wasn’t any help at all. This place is going to close.

This is another case of DFW Texas cashing in on a trend.Grips all had so much sweat grime on them you could barely see there original color. The auto belays are sketchy at best. Nothing is labeled route wise.I almost pulled 2 different grips out of the all and plenty on them were free spinning.You can’t even call the bouldering section bouldering, it’s just a hot mess and also no Labeling.You could say it’s cheap but compared to others facilities I’ve been to where for a few dollars more it’s a world of improve meant, this was a waste of time and money.

DynoRock is an incredibly well balanced gym that promotes good technique. The routes require strength but can almost all be climbed with controlled static movement. Its my favorite gym for training.

Lots of fun!!! First time going, made for an awesome workout, disguised as fun lol loved it! Me and my boyfriend will have to go again soon!

Great staff and challenging routes for all experience levels

They had good and friendly customer service, but the facilities were really disappointing. It looked like they had never washed any of their holds, or cleaned off the walls during a reset. My hands were grimy and black from the ropes within 2 climbs. Plus they had a really weird belay system with grigris attached to daisy chains bolted into the floor. So they arent really teaching anyone much about belaying. The routes and boulder problems were poorly marked, and only a few climbs were any fun. Finally, the flooring was all ground up tire rubber which made the place dirty and smelly. If you are a brand new beginner, it might be an okay introduction to climbing I guess... But if you are a serious climber you should avoid this place until they work harder on cleanliness and get better at route setting.
