What is a Flash Competition?
A flash comp is a fast-paced, single-elimination, sudden death competition.​
There will be a total of three boulder problems. If you send (complete) a boulder, you move on to the next boulder. If you fall, you are eliminated and do not move on to the next boulder.*
(ex: you fall on second boulder, you do not get the chance to try the third boulder. ) ​
Each climbers progress will be scored. Progress is measured by showing positive control of a hold. Touching or 'slapping' a hold will not be considered progress.
​
The climber in each division with the farthest progress, wins the division and the $250 Cash Prize
​
*Competitors in costume get 1 second chance.
