Rules and course of competitions
Qualifications:
Anyone wishing to take part in the competition must complete an application form and pay the entry fee.
In this case it will be all about collecting as many points as possible in 2 hours and qualifying for the evening final. Each color of boulder will be worth a different number of points, namely:
Blue boulder = 1 point
Red boulder = 2 points
Orange boulder = 4 points
Black boulder = 8 points
Green boulder = 16 points
Yellow boulder = 30 points
Everyone can choose their tactics. You must start from the marked holds. 1 ring = one hand and the boulder is considered climbed if the climber holds the last (highest hold) in the route in a controlled manner. Climbed boulders will be recorded by each climber. There is no set number of attempts to climb a boulder and there is no distinction how the boulder was climbed (whether it was climbed in a flash or in 10 attempts – the number of points is the same). If someone finds out before the official end of the qualification at 11:00 that he will not climb any more, he can hand in his entry at the organizer’s table and the result will be recorded. In the case of a tie, the time of submission will be of the essence. At the end of the 11:00 a.m., the preliminary results will be processed and evaluated and published as soon as possible. Time will then be given to check the results and any protests. After review and possible rework, the advancers for the evening finals will be announced no later than 12:00. The top 6 men and 6 women will advance to the finals. This makes a total of 12 participants. We will rely primarily on your honesty, however the entire wall is under camera surveillance and in the event of protests, cheating can easily be detected, so please compete in the spirit of fair play.
The final of the main competition:
The final of the main competition will start at 17:30 and will take place in a pre-prepared sector on which the final boulders will be built. 4 for men and 4 for women. These boulders will not be accessible to anyone outside the builders until the start of the final. At 17:30 the final will start and all finalists will be lined up according to their qualification scores and will progress from isolation to their final boulders. From last to first. So the last advancing male and female will start on boulder no. 1 and will have 4 minutes to climb it. After that, the pair from fifth place will come in for their 4 minutes. After the top advancers have climbed boulders no. 1, the last pair will start again on boulders 2. In this way all finalists will take turns on all 4 boulders. The evaluation is as follows: the number of climbed boulders is the primary factor, then the number of climbed zones and in case of a tie the number of attempts is also decisive.
Endurance competition
Anyone wishing to take part in the competition should sign the list at the reception between 09:00 and 11:00, sign that they agree to the terms and conditions and that they are competing at their own risk and safety. He/she will be given a form at the table to climb the boulders and at 11:00 he/she will be allowed to enter the hall and start climbing.
In this case it will be purely an endurance race. This means that one boulder climbed equals 1 point, no matter what colour it is. Everyone can choose their own tactics. You must start from the marked holds. 1 ring = one hand and a boulder is considered climbed if the climber holds on to the last (highest hold) in the route in a controlled manner. Climbed boulders will be recorded by each climber. In case someone climbs all available boulders, at this point he/she can start collecting points for second climbs. There is no set number of attempts to climb a boulder, nor is there a distinction between how the boulder was climbed (whether it was climbed in a flash or in 10 attempts). If someone finds out before the official end of the competition at 16:00 that he will not climb any more, he can hand in his entry at the organizer’s table and his time will be recorded. In the case of a tie, the shortest time will count. After the end at 16:00, the preliminary results will be processed and evaluated and published as soon as possible. Time will then be given to check the results and any protests. After review and possible rework, the official winners will be announced at 16:45 and prizes will be given out for the top 3 places. We will be relying primarily on your honesty, however the entire wall is under camera surveillance and in the event of protests, cheating can easily be detected, so please compete in the spirit of fair play.
Press force competition
In the background of our wall there will be a supplementary competition in the strength of the grip all day between 12:00 – 20:00. There will be a list at the prepared table, where you can sign up for free and try how much weight you can lift with one hand. The most weight you can lift off the ground will be recorded and we will evaluate the strongest man and woman that evening, who will receive a prize for their performance.

Flash or Trash
We have prepared a regular competition for all competitive climbers. Every time we rebuild the main hall we mark new boulder problems, so 40 boulders in total. The goal will be to climb as many boulders as possible in a flash (i.e. the first attempt). The competition will run within one month and will start with the first rebuild of the month. New boulders are built on Fridays and the competition will start at 18:00 after the new problems are completed and tested. We will always compete for a full week from the first build of the month to the last day of the month! So the rounds will start on the Friday after the build, at 18:00, and end at the start of the next round, the following Friday. After that it is no longer possible to collect points from the previous round. The last round always ends on the last day of the month . Soutěžit budeme ve dvou kategoriích, a to muži a ženy (bez rozdílů věku). Získané body v soutěži se budou sčítat za všechna kola v rámci jednoho měsíce.
Mechanics and rules of the competition:
If you decide to enter the competition, just ask for the competition sheet for that month at the reception. Fill in your name, surname and your contact details (email and phone number) legibly. The attendant will write the actual date and time for that round on the contest sheet. You will then move to the hall and attempt to climb as many new boulders as possible in one “session” (one climb) on your first attempt. Only first attempts count and 1 boulder equals 1 point, regardless of difficulty. So you can get a maximum of 40 points. The start of a boulder is marked with a pink circle, one circle = one hand. You have to hold the start with both hands in a controlled manner before you can start climbing. A boulder is considered climbed when you hold the top (the highest hold in the boulder) with both hands for at least 2-3 seconds. You write down the points yourself. When you are done, you take the competition sheet to the reception, where the attendant will write down the final time, confirm the result with his signature and copy the result of the round for your records. The competition sheet is then returned to you and you keep it with you until the next round. The final submission is when you know you will not be participating in that month. To check, you need to share or at least have a video of at least one boulder climb from your hardest color circuit from each round. The winner will be the person who earns the most points for that month. In the event of a tie, the better time wins. In the event that not enough competitors participate to declare the results, the round will be without winners.
Entry fee and categories:
To enter the competition, all you need to do is have or create an account in our system, pay for at least one entry and agree to the terms and conditions of the competition. Points will be added up each month for each round, so the more rounds you participate in the more chances you have. So we will compete in two categories, namely men and women (no differences in age).
The main hall of HUDY Boulder Karlín every month from the first Friday 18:00 until the last day of the month.
Prices:
The 1st man and woman will get free entry for the next month and 25% off all drinks at our bar. This is a very interesting price worth up to several thousand CZK (assuming regular visits).
2.
a 3. místo in each category will receive a 25% discount on all consumption at our bar for the next month .
We will then draw one lucky winner from all the participants (excluding the first place winners) who will also get next month’s entry completely free. Participation in a minimum of two rounds in a given month is a prerequisite. So don’t hesitate to enter even if you know you won’t be the best. We will post the results and standings on social media.
Control and fair play:
You write down the points yourself. If there is any doubt about the veracity of these attempts, we can check the camera footage or ask the winner to show a video of at least one of the hardest boulders. But we will rely on your honesty and fair play. If anyone involved feels that someone is cheating, we will investigate the complaint. So you can check each other.
