COMPETE WITH FRIENDS. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS.
HAVE FUN. WIN PRIZES!

Our ALL NEW Community Challenge is similar to our Boulder Series (or leagues) of the past but amped up in a whole new way! 

Designed to be 2 competitions in one (ropes and boulders), prizes will be awarded for top overall winners; recognition for “most improved”, “most recommendations” and “most unique routes”; plus a variety of weekly flash challenges worked in for added fun.

Regardless of your climbing ability (seasoned pro or newbie), this is sure to be a fun social experiment – er, EXPERIENCE – for everyone involved.

Why are we using the KAYA app for the challenge?
The KAYA Climb app may be new to the Tacoma community but is used by climbers all around the world and its features help us better facilitate the challenge by: 

  1. Making it easier for us to track participation and progress.
  2. Giving you real time standings to see where you’re at, how your progress compares to others and exactly what you need to do to WIN! 
CHALLENGE DETAILS:
This challenge is specific only to our Tacoma community. You will not be competing against members from other locations.

MORE ABOUT THE KAYA CLIMB APP
Here are the top 3 key reasons we’re on the KAYA app + why we want you join us there:

1. KAYA HELPS US: 

  • Bridge the gap between our setting team and members by: 
  • Streamlining user feedback.
  • Facilitating community grading.
  • Improving the quality of what we’re putting on the wall.

  • Make climbing more approachable and accessible. 
  • Waiting to put route grades up on the wall allows us to break down grade barriers for climbers. For example, maybe a V4 climber can crush the moves on that V6 but knowing the grade ahead of time would have prevented them from even trying. 
  • We invite you to challenge yourself in a whole new way; it may be uncomfortable at first but we bet it helps you advance your skills and ability.

2. KAYA HELPS YOU: 

  • Track your training progress across the board; from climbing gyms to home gyms; Kilter, Moon and Grasshopper boards.

3. KAYA HELPS OUR COMMUNITY: 

  • Diversify representation in climbing through shared beta videos. 
  • Build synergy and engagement with other climbers and gyms; Seattle and Bellevue are also on KAYA!
