The workshops
The workshops are intended to inspire and educate the participants but are not a full course but rather an insight into what it is like to take a course.
The leaders are invited instructors, route builders and competition climbers with previous experience in coaching.
The workshops have between 5-10 participants depending on the focus.
Most workshops consist of a short theoretical part and practical exercises where the leader helps according to time and opportunity (no guarantee that they will have time to give individual feedback).
There is no age limit for the event but it is aimed at young people and adults. The workshops are not adapted for children.
The climb
We have brought in really talented female route builders who have spent two days preparing boulder problems and final problems as well as a competition route specifically for this day!
The lecture
We invite girls who inspire us in different ways.
The final
The final is an on-sight style elimination final for the 6 girls who have climbed the most hard boulders during the day. After the first attempt on the first boulder, 2 girls are eliminated, after the first attempt on the second boulder, 1 girl is eliminated.
If the girls are tied, 1 more attempt is added, but a maximum of 2 attempts.
DAY 2 PROGRAM
Day 2 consists of:
Joint hanging and climbing in Utby.
Introduction to bouldering
Top rope climbing
Lead climbing
Building anchors and installing anchors on sports routes
Rappeling
This day is about great hanging and getting to know outdoor climbing.
We offer an introduction to bouldering and top rope outdoors as well as a rehearsal of various course elements (see above) with a review by an instructor who can give you tips and tricks and make sure everything is done safely.
These can be elements you learned during Girls Rock Day 1 or at another time.
At 12.30 the instructors have a break/lunch, you can of course continue climbing if you want.
