Stōkt is the app for spray wall climbing — at the gym or on your own wall. Browse community problems, set your own, log sends, and track your training. There are more than 2000 walls on Stōkt, and we're always adding more. If you don't see yours, send us a message and we'll get in touch with your gym. HOW IT WORKS Select your gym wall and get started. Climb problems from your community, or put your setting to the test and create new ones. To set a problem, select the holds, hit publish, and it's ready for others. Check the accuracy of your grading against the setter and the crowd. We support Hueco, Font, and DanKyu. Or add your own wall: take a photo, Stōkt scans the holds, and you can start setting and climbing for free. HOME WALLS Stōkt is built for training at home too. Set up your wall in minutes with automatic wall scan — take a photo and Stōkt detects the holds. Edit, move, or add holds whenever you want. Invite friends to set problems for you and keep sessions interesting. You can start free and upgrade when you need more. COMMUNITY Connect with friends and climbers from your gym and see who can send your problems. Search for and follow other climbers to grow your network. Add comments to share beta, tips, or just cheer people on. Get notified when someone likes or comments on your problem. PERFORMANCE & TRAINING Log climbs and attempts to see how you're progressing. Take on fresh problems to push your climbing. Use detailed charts and stats to get a clear view of your training. MORE FEATURES Follow climbers and see activity from your gym in the feed. Create public or private lists — warm-ups, projects, or a style you want to work on. Tag problems (crimpy, slopey, pinchy) and filter by style to find the next climb. STŌKT PRO Stōkt Pro is the gym subscription that enhances your experience: Create official gym lists and add up to 4 extra admin accounts. Benchmarking: Create benchmarks or tag existing climbs so climbers have clear goals. Gym analytics: See how your wall is used — climbs created, sends, active climbers, and trends over time. Competitions: Run competitions from gym lists. Adjustable walls: Support for adjustable-angle walls (coming soon). LEDS Light up any spray wall with the Stōkt LED kit. The kit works on home walls and gym walls. We supply LED strips, available now in the EU and UK, and coming soon elsewhere.
