Glad you guys had a good time. I haven't done much event planning or comp setting so it was a new experience for sure. Any feedback you have will help us make it even better for next year.
First: Those routes were insanely fun to climb and to watch. Most fun I have had in a gym!
Second: As this comp seems to progress to a having a larger pool of strong climbers, there should probably be only one second chance, or even none, on the qualifying routes. This might lessen the chance of me climbing past my bed time.
B: Miked demos covering some mixed technique might be cool for those who are strong but don't dry-tool much.
4: COME ON! get a new gym people!!! Kidding, With the new place in the Springs being built, I see this event become much bigger.
Fifth: This event is turning into the MUST DO event for front range ice and mixed climbers. It's an awesome kick off for the oncoming season. Had a great time, hung with some cool folks, can't wait for next year!
The 4th annual Ice Night was a great success. Check out this video of Gordon McArthur, the only one of the 4 sponsored ice climbers to finish the finals route. It went at M10...
