How it works
These bouldering team names come five at a press, from Crimp Chimps to Gravity Wins Again. All 109 are built on a hold, a move, the wall or the rope, and none names a gym, a brand or a climber.

Five sets in the menu
Bouldering puns is the first set. Rope and wall teams is for climbers who tie in: belays, knots and quickdraws. Gym league teams and Youth teams follow, and the last set is Funny, about falling off.
The climbing words in the names
A crimp is a hold only just big enough for the fingertips. In bouldering a problem is the sequence of moves to be climbed, the crux is its hardest part, and beta is information on how to do it. To send is to free climb a route. A barn door is the body swinging out when every point of contact is in one line.
