The sport is just getting started

Virtual Championships

2026 is the soft launch: get on the live board and win monthly challenges. The first full championship season starts 2027: Amateur Open, Pro (weight classes), Youth, and Masters. Quarterly titles, hang-type championships, and in-person gym events begin then.

This year we are filling the world board. Two-arm, one-arm, weighted, alternating, fingers, hangboard, and more already rank. Monthly challenges have awards. There are no world titles or quarterly championships in 2026. That is the point of a soft launch: athletes, gyms, and hang types get established before the first title season.

2027 is the first title year. Amateur Open and Pro (Lightweight, Middleweight, Heavyweight for men and women) crown world titles. Youth and Masters run the same season. Quarterly championships keep the year moving. Most hang types get their own titles as those fields fill. In-person gym nights start then. Your best verified hang in the window is your virtual entry.
