Spotlight Boulder Jam 15.11.

After last year’s record participation, the Spotlight Boulder Jam is back on Saturday, November 15 — mark your calendars and get ready for another full day of climbing.

The competition will feature two categories — Hobby and Profi, each divided into women’s and men’s groups. In the qualification round, every competitor will face 20 bouldering problems designed to test both strength and creativity.

For safety reasons and due to the nature of the competition, the minimum age for entry is 14 years (born in 2011 or earlier). In the Profi category, younger athletes with proven competitive experience may be considered for an exception.

Participants are free to choose their category. However, if you regularly climb at 7A grade or above, we recommend signing up for the Profi category to make the most of the challenge.

Format and Rules

Qualification will be mass flash style for 3 hours in two groups Hobby and Profi.

The Hobby category will start at light and end at approx. 7B, the Profi category will start at approx. 6C and end at… very heavy.

Boulders will be scored based on the number of climbs – the most climbed boulder will have the least points, the least climbed boulder will have the most points, always in increments of 100 points (the easiest boulder 100 points, the hardest 2000 points). Each attempt means minus 1 point.

For the category Profi, there will be a final for the best 6, both men and women. In the finals, finalists will climb 4 boulders in the onsight style – that is, from isolation in the World Cup format (that is, one women’s boulder and one men’s boulder in turn, max. 4 min per attempt)
