The Summer Send Series at Coeur Climbing
Looking to beat the heat or continue your training journey over the next few months? Then we've got the exact summer climbing competition you're seeking. Join Coeur Climbing all summer long with our FREE three-month Summer Send Series, starting June 1! To compete is incredibly easy. All you have to do is download Kaya, register for the comp (for FREE), and then start logging climbs you complete! And don't fret; we've got different categories for different skill levels, so everyone has a chance to win some amazing prizes!
How It Works
To get started, simply navigate to Kaya on the app store and get downloading! Not sure how Kaya works? Check out our quick overview here. From there, find Coeur Climbing and then register for the Summer Send Series! During this process, competitors will register for their grade (calculated as the highest grade they can complete in five tries) and then they'll be automatically assigned into one of three categories: Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced.
To score points, simply log each climb you complete on the Kaya app! Points are awarded by a Relative Grading System; a competitor's score is directly related to their handicap (registered max grade). E.g. if a climber has a V5 handicap they will receive 100 points for a V5. For V6 they will receive 110 points. For V4 they will receive 80 points. Each grade deviation is +10/-20 points. We'll be continuously setting all summer, so no repeats will be allowed.
The Outdoors…
But wait, there's more! This is also an outdoor challenge as we're incorporating the routes at Q'emiln Park! Since these areas aren't officially recognized within Kaya (yet), all outdoor sends will be based on an Honor System. To score points for the outdoors section, keep track of how many routes you climb and every time you enter the gym there'll be a Send Box with scraps of paper and pens next to it at the Front Desk. Simply write your name and the number of climbs you completed and every Friday, yours truly will manually log those points into Kaya. Every outdoor route/problem will count as five points towards your score!
The Prizes…
This challenge wraps up Sept 1, and we've got a slew of prizes waiting for y'all! They'll be allotted by category for overall winners (three-month duration) and for the winner of every stand-alone month. They include waived membership charges, discounts on new climbing shoes, Printful T-Shirts, and chalk.
We're hoping y'all get psyched this summer not only for the outdoors, but to also keep getting in the gym for some incredible summer sends! Keep the stoke going and get started today! See you on the wall!
