  • Something comfortable to move around in is best. Think full range of motion! EVERYONE MUST HAVE CLOSED TOE SHOES TO PARTICIPATE!

  • We supply the targets, the axes, and an Axe Master (coach). Just bring a good attitude and get ready to enjoy yourself!

  • The 1.5 hour Axe-perience is the ultimate way to learn how to throw. Our coaches walk you through safety, give you one-on-one instruction, and then play a number of games with your group. League Games are played 1-on-1, each player gets 5 throws. Each throw is worth between 1-5 points based on accuracy. The highest score wins. Best of 3 games wins the match.

  • If you've booked an axe-perience, please note that your start and end time still apply. Since there is a safety training that must occur for folks to throw, know that if they miss that safety briefing they will not be able to participate. Our hosts will work with the crew leader on when your group wants to begin. Late guests who miss the safety briefing will still be allowed to join your group as a spectator, but will not be able to throw an axe. We suggest telling everyone the booking time is 30 minutes prior to when it really is, so you can get all your waivers and "can't find parking" texts out of the way before you axe-ually begin!

  • Our dedicated Axe Masters are here to make sure you understand how to throw, play the game, and to answer any questions you may have to sharpen your skills!

ROLLERSKATING

  • Yes. We have skates and skate mates available. If you didn’t rent them online please see a crew member at the registration counter. We do require you to leave a valid, non-expired ID at the desk for any equipment rentals.

RAGE ROOMS

  • Yes! We provide all safety equipment and smashables! Just bring a good attitude and get ready to RAGE OUT!

  • Rage rooms are for age 13+. We do require that any minors have the waivers signed by a parent or guardian to participate, and a parent or guardian must remain with the youth during their session.
