Etiquette Guidelines

First and foremost, our comps are meant to be fun and to establish camaraderie within our community. These are a great way to meet and climb with those who share your love of the sport. We encourage you to be supportive of your fellow climber.

  • Wait your turn and be courteous
  • Stay off the pads if you’re not climbing
  • Be safe – don’t walk, run, or climb under others
  • Don’t get frustrated, stay positive and have fun!

First time?

  • Be sure to watch others for beta
  • Pace yourself – remember, it’s a timed event, not a race
  • Don’t take it too seriously! Don’t be intimidated by the term “competition”

FAQs

You’re competing for both!

Individual Competition // At your chosen Snow Brawl location, you’ll climb to rack up as many points as possible (check out the scoring section above for deets on how). This score will determine whether you’re on the individual podium for your chosen category, at your chosen gym!

SLC v. South Main Competition // EVERYONE’S scores that day will contribute to one big gym score, and whichever gym has the biggest cumulative score is winner of the Brawl! If you made a podium at the winning gym, you get to sign the Snow Brawl trophy and your gym gets to hold onto it for the next year! It kind of works like a college football rivalry trophy.

Yes, you can compete at both gyms!

If you have no strong allegiances, or just REALLY love comps, you can compete at both, take part in both raffles, and have double the chance to sign the Golden Chair!

  1. Go to pebbleclimbing.com or download the Pebble Climbing app (we suggest the app, you will need it to log scores anyways). 
  2. Create an account and select either The Front South Main or The Front SLC gym.
  3. Select Snow Brawl  underneath the competition tab near the top of the page.
  4. Fill out the questionnaire.
  5. Submit!
