have you spotted some new setter boards + tag stickers around the gym? 👀
If you’re an eagle-eyed community member, you might’ve seen some new stickers on route tags around the gym (peep the last slide for an example!). That’s our new meta tags in action, comprised of setter logos on all climbs and style characteristics on boulders:
Setter logos note who created the climb, and who supported with shaping the final product. You can find your setters logos paired with their Polaroid.
Style characteristics are just for boulders, and they denote the general experience our setters hope the climber has on the problem— trainer, skill builder, or test piece.
You can find your setters’ logos and style characteristics breakdown posted in your gym! ✨
