The Boulder Rock Club and YourClimbing.com are teaming up to host a "grassroots media channel" for this year's USA Climbing Regional Championship on May 12.
What that means: Competitors and spectators alike will use this site as a homebase from which to share their photos, stories and videos from the competition.
As an added bonus, we're going to be giving away prizes to those who post the best stuff! Check it:
BEST PHOTO: Post your pictures from the event -- the comps, the crowd, abstract pictures of a climbing hold, an after-party blackmail-caliber photo ... ANYTHING goes! A week or so after the competition, the best of the bunch will be chosen, and the winner shall receive a Lululemon Terrain Backpack and 4 Guest Passes to the Boulder Rock Club ($108 value).
BEST STORY OR BLOG ENTRY: Word of mouth is no longer going to cut it. It's time to spread the word, the 21st century way (technology rocks!). Post your stories from the competition -- from the weird potential-psycho-killer you chatted up during isolation, to the way you felt after sending that problem in front of the judges. ... Just post it. And out of those tales, we'll give the best author 4 Guest Passes to the Boulder Rock Club ($108 value).
BEST VIDEO: You've put together an epic montage of competition footage, and you just know the guys at Sender Films would dig it if only they'd watch it. Well guess what? NO ONE's going to watch it unless you post it here! Post ANY video, from the rambling overview of the day's action to the 30-second clip of the finals winner showing everyone how they could crank hard (if only they were also bad ass). The producer of the best video will be the recipient of 4 Guest Passes to the Boulder Rock Club ($108 value).
HOW TO ENTER: Just post it. And that's it! All pictures, blogs and videos posted to the site will be automatically entered into the contests.
