Need For Lead Month

All September Long!

Need for lead month is a month-long community event designed to get new lead climbers into the lifestyle and help old leaders regain their stoke. Climbers record each climb they complete during each session for a chance to earn a cool prize at the end of the month!

Track all your climbs using the link below.

This will be free to participate in and is as easy as submitting a completed form to be entered onto the leaderboard. Winners will be announced in the first week of October.

Two Ways To Win:

Hardest Send

Awarded to the climber or team that completes the highest-graded route.
Prize One-Month Membership

Most Routes Completed

Rack up the most qualifying sends.


Awarded to the climber or team with the greatest number of qualifying sends.
Prize 60m Lead Rope

The Rules:

  • A list of routes with grades must be submitted via the google form to be counted towards their score on the day of their completion
  • Climbers must send the route, top to bottom for it to count. Only clean ascents count.
  • Attempts and redpoints: Projecting a route does not earn points. A successful redpoint counts as a send and receive the same score as any other successful ascent of that route.
  • Repeats do not count if the rope is not pulled. All ascensionists must clip into the quickdraws as they climb upwards.
  • Honesty: This is a self-reported competition. Participants are expected to submit accurate results and follow the honor system.
