<p>This is possibly a little of a generalisation but, why are indoor grades easier than outdoor grades? </p> <p>Having climbed at many many indoor walls (all over the uk) and done multiple outdoor climbs (bouldering and trad) pretty much universally I can climb much higher grades indoors than out. </p> <p>For example at my local gym I I boulder at about V4-5. Outdoors I've completed one V1. In fontainebleu I was struggling at V0.</p>
