Participant Rules & Requirements

Redpoint Competition Format

Points are associated with the difficulty of each climb and climbers may make as many attempts as needed.  Climbers may attempt any boulder problem, and should try to complete as many as possible.

Points are awarded for:

» Tops: Completing the problem.

» Zones: Reaching a designated midway point.

»Falls: deduct 1 point per fall. Fewer attempts = better score.

Final score is cumulative: total points – total falls = final score.  Every boulder counts towards your total final score.

Grab your scoresheet prior to the competition at the front desk.
