The score is counted by points marked at specific holds. Results will be determined during the main round and medals will be awarded before finals.

Optional Finals Round

After the main competition, there will be a finals round, which will be open to all competitors but is also optional. For this round, climbers will only have one attempt at each route. This will simulate the environment at Paraclimbing Nationals Finals. There will be prizes! ​
