Climbers, try a new way to compete !
Build your ultimate team of 3, choose a gym, choose your roles strategically, and aim for the top of the leaderboard!
Choose your role carefully—
Each boulder you conquer awards points based on your chosen role !
Here’s how the scoring works:
Double points for boulders that match your role.
Half points for all other boulders.
Since you can only represent one gym, you won’t earn points when climbing at other gyms.
