2015 National Bouldering Series Championships

On behalf of the SANCF, Western Cape Climbing welcomes all other provinces to the annual SANCF National Bouldering Series Championships.

South African National Boulder Series Championships

 

The 2015 National Boulder Series Championships

 

 

For the second time, the Western Cape is host to the biggest indoor bouldering competition in South Africa: the 2015 National Boulder Series Championships.

 

With the incredible buy-in and support of South Africa’s largest Indoor Climbing Gym, namely CityROCK Indoor Climbing Gym in Observatory, Cape Town, the stage was set to witness 73 competitors from across the country take part in this year’s National Boulder Event.

 

Each province was allowed up to 5 competitors per each of the 12 categories. The format of the event included semi-final rounds on the Saturday 11th April 2015 and the final rounds on Sunday 12th April 2015.

 

While in isolation on the Saturday and Sunday, climbers could be found lounging around in the cool breeze coming in through into the isolation area, fondly known as Area 51 by the local CityROCK clients.

 

After the first day, Alex’s Catering delivered a scrumptious meal of canapes and finger-foods for the weary competitors and spectators as well as the hard-working routesetters.

 

Hats off to the phenomenal routesetting that occurred before and during the event. Chief Routesetter, Maciej Fijalkowski, and his team of 6 routesetters spent the entire week leading up to the event setting routes and stripping the walls of the gym. It was incredible to see how much work, deliberation and basic hard labour goes into the setting and stripping of routes.

 

Each boulder problem that was climbed was allocated one Judge and one Scorer. These two people were responsible for accurately capturing which climber got the most top and bonus holds in the 5 and 4 minutes for semi-final and final boulder problems respectively. The scoresheets were taken to the two Scores Auditors and the Chief Scorer to be entered into a Scoring Spreadsheet which would calculate and ultimately rank the climbers after each climb. The Jury President had the final say before the results were published.

 

The competition ran very smoothly and efficiently and any queries or issues that arose throughout the event were dealt with timeously and fairly, ensuring a successful, streamlined and entertaining competition for all involved. The running of the event was largely and almost exclusively due to the officials, namely:

 

  • Patrick Black (Jury President)
  • Maciej Fijalkowski (Chief Routesetter)
  • Paul Bruyer (Assistant Jury President)
  • Chris Naudé (Chief Scorer)

10. Structure of Event

 

General

 

The competition will consist of a semi-final round of 4 problems and a final round of 4 problems. All climbers compete in the Semi-Final and the top ranked eight from the Semi-Final will compete in the final round.

A 2 minute viewing per boulder for Semi-Finals will be held before the start of each round and a 5 minute viewing per boulder for the Final will be held before the start of each round.

Climbers may not ask about beta. Climbers may only touch the marked starting holds during this time. No other holds may be touched and feet may not leave the ground.

Scores for rankings are calculated according to, and in order of:

  • the number of Tops awarded;,
  • the fewest attempts toat top;
  • the number of bonus points awarded; and,
  • the fewest attempts at reaching the bonus hold.

No score shall be awarded for a “touched” hold.

If any competitors are tied, then the ranking of these competitors from the previous round will be used to break the tie (“countback”).

For the purpose of determining qualification for the Final round, if any competitors are tied following the ranking and countback process described above, the tied climbers will be put through, e.g. climbers ranked equally at 8th will be allowed to compete in the Semi-Final.

To complete a route the climber must comfortably hold the final hold of the route with both hands for 3 seconds or until the judge acknowledges.

A touch of the hold or a mat foot dab (however slight) constitutes a try.

The starting, bonus and finishing holds shall be clearly marked.

The start and end times will be announced by the blow of a whistle by the Time Keeper.

The time remaining will be announced by the Time Keeper.

Isolation rules shall apply to all rounds of Boulder competitions.

 

Finals Round

 

  • The highest ranked 8 climbers from each category after the semi-final will compete in the Final Round.
  • Any climbers ranked equally at 8th will be allowed to compete in the semi-final following the above procedure of countbacks.
  • The starting order will be in the reverse order of the ranking achieved, i.e. the highest ranked competitor shall climb last.
  • The final will consist of 4 boulders with 4 minutes to complete each boulder.
  • If any 1st placed finals competitors remain tied following the above countback process (the ranking of the previous round shall be used to break the tie), then a “Tie Break” boulder will be held. If the tie relates to any other competitors, the relevant competitors will be given an equal ranking
