2 Weeks till T10

With only 2 Weeks until Thomo's T10 descends on Thompson's Point, there are a few things you need to know...
  • Thomo's T10 is a social event designed to get climbers together to have a lot of fun. The competition aspect of it is just there to add to the fun, but not meant to be taken too seriously.
  • The BBQ afterward will be held at Shoalhaven Caravan Village. There are cabins and plenty of camping space there, and nice bathrooms!
  • They're at: 17 Terara Road, Nowra
  • Phone: 02 4423 0770
  • To get there, coming from the north, turn left at the second set of lights (Moss Street) after the bridge, just after the speed camera. Follow this road past Nowra High and after it curves right Shoalhaven Caravan Village is on the left.

  • For the Opens and Youths (16 and under) the same scoring system will be used as last year. Opens must redpoint their route to get the points but Youths may top-rope. Bonus point routes will be announced shortly.
  • There will be no Junior Category for 18 and 19 year olds!
  • Pumpers get one point for every route they redpoint, whether it's a 13 or a 30!
  • The Crag Lord Category is open to climbers who have been climbing for more than 20 years or have 5 children (photographic evidence required!).
  • Crag Lords must also redpoint every route. they score 1 point for routes grade 15 and lower, 2 points for routes graded 16 to 20 and 3 points for routes graded 21 or harder.
  • In all categories, you can only count a individual route once (no laps).
  • Climbing starts at 7:30 am and finishes at 5:30 pm.
  • Dave Filan, the man who put up the first route at Thomo's, has right of way at all times.
  • The organisers take no responsibility for your safety, climbing is dangerous, hitting the ground hurts.
