How It Works
 

4 Seasons run for 6 weeks
4 Sessions are Thursdays 7:30-10pm
4 You’ll get points for the top 10 climbs you send
4 Points are awarded based on the handicap system
4 Each week scores will be updated on the official scoreboard
4 New Individual and Team Champions crowned each season


The Handicap System

We want everyone to have the chance to win if they really push themselves and train hard, so we’ve created a handicap system that puts all climbers on an even playing field.

Climbers decide for themselves the level at which they climb and points are awarded for each climb based on the points chart.

Climbing levels are based on the grade you climb comfortably:

C1 = 5.8, C2 = 5.9, C3 = 5.10, C4 = 5.11, C5 = 5.12

Chart

Points and grades in red are base scores and indicate what you get for climbing at your level.  If you climb above or below your grade you would get more or less points based on the chart below.

Grades/Points

C1        5.6       5.7       5.8       5.9      5.10
C2        5.7       5.8      
5.9      5.10     5.11
C3        5.8       5.9     
5.10     5.11     5.12
C4        5.9      5.10    
5.11     5.12     5.13
C5       5.10     5.11
