A BoulderLink competition turns weeks of climbing into a single, transparent leaderboard. Log your sends across boulder, lead and challenges — a clear scoring formula does the rest, live, with no judges and no paper scorecards.
Every competition follows the same rhythm — the gym sets it up once, then it runs itself until the final standings lock in.
A coach picks the dates, disciplines, categories and a scoring preset — solo or teams.
Tap to record each send, flash or project on the wall. Points apply the instant you top out.
Individual and team boards recalculate live — by discipline, category and crew.
When the clock runs out, standings freeze and the gym publishes the season recap.
A competition can run on one discipline or all three. Every send adds to one running total — the breakdown stays honest so you always see where your points came from.
The core of most comps. Each problem is worth points based on its grade, with a flash bonus for first-try sends.
Rope routes scored on their own tariff. Optional for gyms with a lead wall, weighted alongside boulder in the total.
Side quests that aren't about grade — finish a circuit, log volume, hold a hangboard edge — each worth fixed points.
Every point is computed from one readable formula. Each send earns a base value, then optional modifiers stack on top — the gym decides which are switched on.
The value of a send, set by a grade table or an exponential curve.

+ earlyHere's how a single flash turns into points under a grade-based preset — the same maths runs behind every row of the leaderboard.
Gyms start from a preset built around a real competition style, then tune any component. Climbers just see a clear ruleset before they enter.
Grade-based points, best-N aggregation, and flash bonus. The default for multi-discipline events.
Flat points per grade, everything counts, no penalties. Friendly and simple.
Start from a blank formula and build every component from scratch — recreate any ruleset, like an OMC-style tariff.
Run the same scoring as an individual ladder, a team battle, or both at once. Categories keep the brackets fair.
Every climber is ranked on their own points. The classic ladder — chase the climbers just above you and watch your rank move in real time.
Climbers group into crews and their best scores aggregate into a single team total. Carry your squad, or get carried — every send still matters.
Every total splits into the disciplines that built it. No paper scorecards, no waiting for results — the standings are always current.
No. Most formats only count your best sends — often the top 10 per discipline — so a few strong sends matter more than grinding every route in the gym.
You still earn the grade's base points. You just miss the flash bonus, and if the gym enabled an attempt penalty, extra tries shave a little off. The send always counts.
Gyms can split the field into Open, Junior and Senior brackets, and optionally apply a category multiplier so each group is ranked on a level board.
Yes. When a comp runs both formats, your sends feed your personal rank and your team's combined total at the same time — no double-logging.
Instantly. The moment you log a send, the formula runs and both the individual and team leaderboards recalculate live.
A gym coach or admin builds it when creating the competition — choosing a preset and toggling components. Climbers always see the full ruleset before entering.
