WE’RE BELIEVERS IN THE POWER OF PLAY.

COMING UP

2025 BPO TEE ONLY AVAILABLE FOR PRE ORDER UNTIL AUGUST 14. CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE TEE ONLY (FOR NON COMPETITORS)

BPO SEPTEMBER 6, 2025

We were routesetters first—t-wrenches in hand, pulling long nights on home walls, challenging our partners to climb whatever we just dreamed up. After 15+ years the walls are bigger, the holds are better, and the community is next-level, but the spirit hasn’t changed. Bloc Project Open is our annual bouldering comp where setting takes center stage and the energy doesn’t let up. We build boulders for everyone—from first-timers to Open finalists—and cap it all off with a party that hits just as hard. Lights down. Music up. Chalk still in the air. Sign up. Show up. Throw down. Stay late—with a full heart and a half-empty beverage in hand.

  • I’ve never done a competition, can I do BPO? YES! 100%. In fact, we might be more psyched about you competing than anyone else. But keep that between us ;) We’ll curate a circuit of climbs that are PERFECT for testing your skills as a newer climber and helping you have a memorable experience. And, you’re only competing against yourself and other climbers in the beginner category!

    What does my entry ticket get me? Your BPO ticket gets a super slick athlete swag bag, entry to the redpoint round of your choosing, and entry to the Open Finals round that evening which includes complimentary beverages and good times guaranteed.

    How do I choose my category? Easy really! Select a category based on the average difficulty of climbs you can do in a 3 hour session. We are doing paper scoring in 2025 so it will be easy to make changes as needed. If you climb multiple boulders in a higher category, we will kindly ask you to bump your category :)

    Can I stick around when my redpoint is over? Because our space is limited, we ask everyone to exit the gym after your redpoint round is over. This gives our staff space to tidy up before the next stage and lets competitors get registered in a timely fashion. After the repoints have started, YES, swing back through and cheer on your boulder pals.

    Can I bring my mom? Spectators are free during the redpoint rounds! Open Finals entry tickets will be required at the door and price is TBD.
