Fayla

Called It

Before anybody ties in, everybody predicts who tops the hardest route on the wall first. Sealed until somebody does.

How to run it

One sealed guess, before the first climber ties in.

The rule

  1. The instructor, or the wall's own grading board, says which route is the hardest on offer.
  2. Everybody writes down, in secret, who they think tops it out first.
  3. Seal it and climb. Open it the moment somebody gets there — right or wrong, that is when it opens.

Worth knowing

What you need

Nothing here has to be bought.

Before the day

Get the instructor to point out the hardest route on the wall before anybody starts guessing.

If it goes badly

Whoever called it wrong by the widest margin holds the rope for the rest of the session.
