Routes & Boulders Points Style, Score & Bonus points 8b+ . 1 150 _ Onsight jumps 3 grades - 5 points 8b 1 100 Boulder OS jumps 2 grades - 5 points . 8a+ 1 050 Flash jumps one grade + 3 points . 8a 1 000 Redpoint score _ 7c+ 950 Top rope drops one grade 7c 900 New Repetition = - 1 point . 7b 800 New First Ascent (FA) = + 10 points . 7a 700 New FA Boulder = + 5 points 6b+ 550 6a 400 New 2:Go = + 2 points 5a 250 New Trad = + 30 points

For a route first ascent (FA) you get 10 extra points and for a FA Boulder ytou get 5. You also get 2 extra points for second go. We will double all the bonus points shortly,
Yeah, but please get rid of the pointless "SECOND GO" bonus. Rather a bonus should be awarded for "ONE DAY ASCENTS" in which people send the route the same day they first try it, no matter how many attempts it takes them.

Thanks, that is a good idea... The problem is that the webmaster is busy with other things at the moment.
