Yes! The simplest answer is – if during the majority of your climbing sessions you are able to complete more than 2 climbs that are harder than “your bracket” on a regular basis, you should register for the next bracket up.
However, if you are a V2-V4 climber (for example), and you get lucky with a V5 that just perfectly first your style every once in a while, comfortably register for the Intermediate category.
Spectators are welcome, but we ask that Session 2 competitors do not spectate for Session 1.
We will use our mass e-mail system to notify all participants if they qualified for Finals or placed on the podium, so please make sure the e-mail address you submit with your account is current and correct.
