The Friction Bouldering Series is Back!

FBSlogoSportrock's first FBS comp is was a great time. Lots of people climbing hard and sending someof the hardest problems. We hope everyone enjoyed it as much as we did. The scores are now posted on our site here. There are only 2 more competitions left so sign up today and reserve your slot. Registration and competition details can be found at Frictionbouldering.com.

This is a series not to miss out on. Below is the schedule of events which are some of the biggest competitions held on the East Coast. We can’t wait to see what Jeremy (Sportrock’s Head Route Setter) pulls out of his sleeves this year. In years past we have had people swinging on ropes in the middle of their climb and bouncing off trampolines to reach the first hold.
