On January 30, the University of Alabama Outdoor Recreation will be hosting their annual T-Town Pull-Down Bouldering Comp. The T-Town Pull-Down is the first competition of the season in the Southeast Region of the Collegiate Climbing Series. It is open to any interested climber (not just collegiate members). The comp will be held at the University of Alabama Climbing Wall at the Student Recreation Center in Tuscaloosa.
It is a redpoint bouldering competition with two rounds and a flash finals. The cost is $25 for pre-registration and $35 day-of. You can find details and registration forms at http://urec.sa.ua.edu/...bing_competition.cfm
The cost includes a t-shirt, Gatorade and Clif Bars, tons of swag, and prizes from our sponsors including Mad Rock, BlueWater Ropes, Rock & Ice, Cloudveil, Therm-A-Rest, and many others. We are offering $5 camping on-site the night of January 29 to help ease travel for competitors. You can round out the weekend with a visit to nearby Horse Pens 40 on January 31. Feel free to contact Derek DeBruin at dmdebruin@crimson.ua.edu with any questions.

Instead of merely bumping this thread, I thought I'd incentivize competing by mentioning some of the sweet prizes we'll have available for competitors and through a raffle.
Mad Rock has generously donated a free pair of shoes or harness of your choice, so you're guaranteed to get the gear you want in your size.

Did I mention we have over $5000 worth of swag in give-aways and prizes? Don't forget: we're going to have a raffle as well to raise money for the Southeastern Climbers Coalition.
