Boston Boulder Brawl Pro Division Compilation

This is a mobile friendly version of the pro division compilation.

We had an absolute blast at our very first Boston Boulder Brawl (B3). The turn out was fantastic and the energy was high all day long. Our route setters went all out to bring our climbers the best set for the competition. It was phenomenal to see the best boulder climbers in Boston show up and go head to head. We can’t wait for the next one!

We’ve been hard at work editing all the footage to show you our competitors taking down these amazing problems set by Head Route Setter, Mike Dominguez “MIG” and his incredible setting team.

Check out all our pros crushing with a great mix of veteran competitors and the next generation. The ladies make it to Brawl problem number 4 and the men go into super over-time as no one can send problem 5 and the competitors advance to problem 6 to break the tie.

We’re so proud of all of our competitors and hope to see everyone return for the next B3 with some new competitors to raise the stakes!
