Rock Master – The Challenges

Lead Duel and KO Boulder

Double the adrenaline, double the titles. At Rock Master, two legendary formats are in play: the Lead Duel, the iconic head-to-head race to the top of the Climbing Stadium’s towering wall, and KO Boulder, the knockout battle that rewards power, instinct and determination. 8 women and 8 men – some of the best climbers in the world – are invited to compete in one of the most spectacular climbing events on the international scene.

Head-to-head on the iconic overhang
