The event uniquely combines elite sports with live music turning a climbing competition into a true „rock show“. Bouldering is a style of rock climbing undertaken without a rope over a crash pad. In terms of coordination, acrobatics and athleticism it is certainly the most demanding discipline in competition climbing. The goal of competitive bouldering is to reach a hold that is marked as ‘top’ using as few attempts as possible. touch a buzzer, which will determine the winner in case of a hairbreadth finish. In this thrilling duel the two superfinalists need both, excellent skills and good nerves. Although the climbers cannot see each other, the beat of the music and the cheers of the crowd will reflect what is happening on the other side. The person who first stands upright on the super boulder is the merited adidas Climbing meets Music ROCKSTAR 2014 and wins 4000 Euros.

  • Improving Rock Climbing Safety Using a Systems Engineering Approach
    Lyle Halliday u5366214 Improving Rock Climbing Safety using a Systems Engineering Approach ENGN2225- Systems Engineering and Design, Portfolio Abstract This portfolio outlines an application of Systems Engineering methods to the sport of Rock climbing. The report outlines an organized, logical analysis of the system that is involved in making this sport safe and aims to improve the system as a whole through this analysis. Steps taken include system scoping, requirements engineering, system function definition, subsystem integration and system attributes which contribute toward a final concept. Two recommendations are made, one being a bouldering mat which incorporates the transportation of other equipment, the other being complete, standardised bolting protocols. These concepts are then verified against the design criteria and evaluated. 1.0 System scoping: A systematic way of establishing the boundaries of the project and focusing the design problem to an attainable goal. The project focuses on Lead Climbing. 2.0 Requirements engineering: Establishing the true requirements of climbers, and what they search for in a climbing safety system 2.1 Pairwise Analysis: Establishing safety, ease of use and durability as primary design goals 2.2 Design Requirements and Technical Performance Measures: Specifying the design requirements into attainable engineering parameters. 2.3 House of Quality: Identifying the trade-offs between safety and functionality/ cost and the need for a whole-of-systems approach to the problem, rather than a component approach. 3.0 System Function Definition: Establishing concepts and system processes. 3.1 Concept Generation and Classification: Identifying possible and existing solutions on a component level and taking these to a subsystem level.

Abstrakt Název: Posouzení validity hodnocení klasifikace obtížností v nové bouldrové oblasti. Cíle: Cílem této práce je posoudit validitu klasifikace obtížnosti výstupů při boulderingu v nové oblasti. Metody: Ověření klasifikace obtížností prováděl soubor šesti mužů a čtyř žen. Hodnocení probíhalo během jedné kontinuální návštěvy skal s individuální dobou odpočinku mezi problémy. Lezci klasifikovali 10 výstupů okamžitě po dokončení jednotlivého výstupu a individuálně, bez možnosti radit se o svých odhadech. Navrhovaná obtížnost výstupů pro klasifikaci se pohybovala mezi obtížnostmi 12 až 17 IRCRA. Výsledky: Průměrné hodnocení klasifikace obtížnosti cest vyšlo o 0,89 bodu IRCRA vyšší než prvotní návrh s výskytem drobných rozdílů mezi muži a ženami. Vliv výkonnosti lezců na jejich hodnocení obtížnosti je statisticky nevýznamný.
