🎉 THAT’S A WRAP ON ROCK SOLID BOULDERING 2026! 🎉

What a summer! Our fourth and final round is done, and we couldn’t be prouder of all 119 young climbers who took part across the series. This year saw our biggest entry numbers EVER, and what a brilliant bunch you’ve been! 🧗‍♀️🧗‍♂️
At Rock Solid, we celebrate EVERY climber — and we’ve loved handing out our spot prizes for effort, dedication, technique, determination and sportsmanship. 💪
A HUGE congratulations to all our series winners! 🏆 We know just how hard you’ve worked, and it was fantastic to see those trophies, certificates and goodie bags being handed out. You absolutely smashed it! 👏
A massive THANK YOU to our four brilliant host walls: 📍 Eden Rock Newcastle 📍 The Coliseum 📍 Friction Bouldering 📍 Durham Climbing Centre
We simply couldn’t run Rock Solid without the support of our local climbing walls, and we’re incredibly grateful for everything you do for us.
And finally, to EVERYONE who volunteered this year — thank you! ❤️ A special shout-out to our hardworking judges who gave up their time round after round. You’re all absolute superstars! 🌟
We’re already chatting about plans for next year… 👀
Bring on 2027! We can’t wait to do it all again! 🎉🧗‍♀️
