FORMAT:
TWO QUALIFIERS ROUNDS (Sept 10 at Onsight and Sept 24 at Synergy): Redpoint format. Competitors will be ranked by total points from top 5 scoring completed boulder problems at each event. Prizes are awarded at each qualifying event to the top three scoring males and females in each of the 6 age divisions.
FINALS ROUND: World Cup format. Top 6 scoring male and female competitors from each of the two categories (Lil’ Beasts and Big Beasts) based on cumulative scores from EACH qualifier event move on to the Finals Round. Competitors are not REQUIRED to attend both qualifiers, but it is clearly an advantage in order to obtain a higher total score. Based on performance in the Finals Round, top 3 male and female Lil’ Beast and Big Beast will earn CASH PRIZES + other awesome swag from our sponsors!
