**Register before Oct 12th and receive a T-shirt with your registration.**&#x20;

COMMUNITY COMP&#x20;
Gravity Games is designed for **all climbers—from first-timers to crushers.** Routes span every grade range, so no matter your skill level, you’ll find climbs to test your strength, head game, and strategy.

**Beginner:** 5.6–5.10b (top rope only)

**Advanced:** 5.11c–5.12c (lead only)

**Open:** 5.12b+ (lead only)

***Advanced/Open climbers must have passed Mesa Rim’s lead test no later than Nov. 1.***&#x20;

FINALS SHOWDOWN
**The top 5 climbers in each category (per gender) advance to finals.** Finals will be electric—think DJ, lights, big crowd energy, and next-level climbing. This is where the comp comes alive, and you don’t want to miss it.

PRIZES&#x20;
The Top 3 finalists in each category will score prizes from **La Sportiva, Scarpa, Edelrid, plus other great partners.**

ALL-DAY PARTY VIBES&#x20;
This isn’t just a comp—it’s a **community celebration.** After climbing sessions, hang out with live music, vendor booths, local food, giveaways, and an epic raffle.
