USAC Competition
These are the Results of the USAC Competition 2021. Competition 2024 is on the horizon!
The results!
Rules
- So the competition is divided into three levels. Please classify yourself at the level that is feasible for you, but also challenging.
- There is a difference between flashing a route and redpointing. Flashing means that you climb the route for the first time and then climb the route without blocks or falls. Redpointing means that you climb a route in one go without blocks or falls, but that you have tried the route before.
- You keep track of the climbed routes yourself, which you enter in a form. The forms are behind the categories.
- You may have climbed a route before. The competition starts from May 19, so any route you have climbed from May 19 may be counted. So this may include flashing a route even though you climbed the route before the lockdown.
- You may also compete outside of regular USAC times (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday). So do you climb on Wednesdays at KMU and flash a route? Be sure to write this down.
Etiquette
- Be honest about your score. We are confident that everyone will enter his/her/their scores truthfully.
- Think of each other. Not everyone competes and please respect this. So it may happen that someone climbs a route that you are still very keen to do for the competition. Remember, you do not have priority because you are competing.
Point Count
- Points for a redpoint: 3 = 18 points, 4 = 24 points, 5a = 30 points, 5a+ = 31 points, 5b = 32 points, 5b+ = 33 points … 7c+ = 47 points, 8a = 48 points.
- A flash counts as a redpoint from one level higher. So a 5b redpoint = 32 points and a 5b flash = 33 points.
- Your total score is the sum of your 5 hardest routes.
