Hype Fest 2023 Recap

 

Thanks for joining Hype Fest, The Spot Louisville's first ever bouldering competition and the final competition of Spot Bouldering Series XI! We kicked things off with a youth wave, followed by an adult wave, and had so much fun crate stacking, racing on the “Gladiator Games” wall, and hanging out with our amazing sponsors in the vendor village. On top of bringing hundreds of climbers together, our community raised over $750 for the Boulder Climbing Community. This money will help support local trail work, rebolting, and countless other projects that protect our favorite crags. Check out our competition recap video, then keep scrolling for comp results.
