DCC BOULDERING SERIES UNDERWAY!

Two rounds of the DCC WINTER BOULDERING SERIES have now been completed with climbers gaining some excellent scores and the opportunity to win some top prizes. Each round is sponsored by different brands who are supplying us generously with prizes.


Round 1 was sponsored by Metolius and Evolv. Andy Watmaugh took home a Metolius Fingerboard for coming first in the VETS MALE and Evolv shoes went to the winners of the Beginner Male cat Brett Penfold and Michael Daglish. The turnout was excellent and problems were considered hard but 'challenging'! Congratulations to everyone who took part.

The results are now online for Round 2 of the ever successful Winter Bouldering Series. Once again there was a fantastic turnout with everyone psyched for new problems. The event was sponsored by Bleaustone & Climb On! Who provided an excellent selection of prizes including Bleaustone Fingerboards, Climb On! Products, Bleaustone T Shirts and Chalk Bags. Over 60 people entered with some choosing not to hand in their score sheets! Dan Smith took home a Bleaustone fingerboard for winning the ADVANCED MALE Category and young climber Jamie Naden won a CLIMB ON! Hand Care Kit for his efforts! All totals are carried over to the next round so points do count. As usual the competition was fun and friendly, and everyone who paid their £1 to enter claimed their free sample of Climb On, which is surely worth a pound! Keep posted for details of Round 3; dates and sponsors.

See you all down at the centre to try out the new blocks– more problems added today: 20 new ones grade V2 - V6!
