Join us for something special in Unit 5!
For the first time we'll be running our very own Winter Lead Accumulator.
How will it work?
Each round will consists of 25 new climbs set throughout the centre designed to test your climbing ability on ropes. There will be 15 lead routes and 15 top ropes, with some being shared. You will have 1 week to get as far as you can on the routes in your category, starting from 17:00 on the first day.
You must stick to the following rules though!
- All attempts from the ground, no working routes!
- All clips must be made in sequence (lead only)
- The top is achieved by matching the last hold, and clipping the anchors (lead only)
- Scores are awarded for the last hold used in control
- First clips may be pre clipped if necessary
Scorecards available at reception
