Default Where can i find climbing ropes?

Does anyone know any parks (preferably in the west) that have those ropes you can climb? Like army ropes? (pretty high, attached to a wooden frame or something).... I went to west coast park the other day and they didn't have...

I used to have them in my primary school. I'm desperately looking a park that has them.

Thanks!

Are you looking for parks to scale or are you looking for climbing ropes?

Try Bukit Timah Hill, that's a small cliff where people used to scale for mountain climbing practise.

For ropes, think you can get those from specialised shops selling sports, or maybe try Beach Road Hawker Centre, 3rd floor.

I'm not looking for parks to scale.

I am actually looking for a rope to climb...literally. Do u get what i mean? It's a fixed rope hanging from a certain height and you climb up and down the rope for strength training purposes....its kind of complicated why i want to use a rope for strength training as opposed to other things....but yeah, i know they exist!

Someone just told me they think Kent Ridge Park has ropes to climb so might check that out.

why, u wanna train for SOC? lols.. Any army camp sure have one.

i don't recall seeing any, maybe in some primary schools? Can try west coast park also since you stay at clementi?
They don't have ropes, but maybe something similar that you can climb..

If not, i think doing pull ups is just the same, unless you want to 'train' to hang on the rope using your legs, ala SOC style, to touch the top.
but some people can also touch the top using pure arms only.

I'm loving angels instead
