I'm working on developing a fun climbing competition series for my climbing gym. The format is top-rope maximum two tries per route. Onsight earn more points than a non-onsight.

We'll hold one of these comps every three months. This comp is focused on FUN FUN FUN. Event ends with raffle, BBQ, and winner of each category gets there name on a plaque.

I have no idea what to name this series. I want something fun, but still climbing. (One gym has the Bouldering event named "Top Out or Fall Out."

Any and all advice for a fun catchy name welcomed.

Cheers

How 'bout 'Drastic Plastic"

That was the name of our Frisbee Ultimate team in the late 70's.

Guangzhou how about "meet your peak" or "beat your peak". One of my businesses was "peak fitness" and it really meant for everyone to be at "thier" peak fitness.

...two tries per route. Onsight earns more points than non-onsight.

Can't speak to the name but have plenty of clowns on hand to show everyone what climbing's all about. Hope that helps, you asked.

assuming that it is in a GYM.

Instead of, "The Fantastic Plastic Showdown"

Maybe, "It Ain't Fantastic Cuz It's Plastic Showdown" wud be more appropriate!
