What is an International Open ?
The International Open is about mixing up amateurs and professionals of our sport, so we can all share the experience, meeti new people and have some laughs together.. TAB offers high quality climb problems and huge climbing time.
It will take place on friday July 25th at l’Argentière la Bessée. All competitors will have 2 sessions of 2h30 hours to try and hopefully send around 30 (numbers may vary between 28 to 35) qualifying boulders (from 5+ to 8a).
The six best female and male climbers will take part in a final on the evening of Saturday July 27th 2019.
Whatever your level, come and have a go, there will be something for everyone!
For people which don't have IFSC licence : its possible to participate in the "promotionnal open veterans and senior loisirs (click here)" : you need to buy a french day licence (6e) and have a medical certificate stating the climber is able to climb in compétition . Boulders and climb time are the same but the ranking will be separate and there is no finals.

Inscriptions
TAB open international is a senior compétition open for all nationalities (youth a and juniors with IFSC licence accepted). It's an FFME offical event, making point for French national classement.
To take part all persons need to have a licence. All non-french people need to have IFSC licence.
For non-French youth A and juniors, a senior IFSC licence is needed. Compétition is not open to category below youth-A, its a senior competition.
Prizes will be awarded to the top 6 climbers in the Grand Finale : 1st: 2000€; 2nd: 1000€; 3rd: 500€; 4th: 250€; 5th: 125€; 6th : 75€
For people which don't have IFSC licence : its possible to participate in the "promotionnal open veterans and senior loisirs (click here)" : you need to buy a french day licence (6e) and have a medical certificate stating the climber is able to climb in compétition . Boulders and climb time are the same but the ranking will be separate and there is no finals in amateur open. Note that your country licence is not accepted cause to insurance problems.
Info for youth A : Some people ask us if they can register for the open international and microTAB at the same time. The regulation authorizes youth A outclassed to participate in a senior competition with ifsc licence. However, since the blocks of the microTAB and senior open international contest are open with similar holds and sometimes the same modified frames, we can only accept registrations in "open senior leisure" that will not have a final or prize money . This in order to avoid any problem for the climbers of the international TAB. If the person is aiming for the final of the international open for finals or prize money then I suggest to register only to international open.
Registration fee: 28€
DON’T DELAY! Numbers are limited to 250 climbers.
please note :
For practical reasons (printing bibs, start lists etc.), registration for the 2019 edition will ONLY be possible ONLINE and registration will close 5 days before the start of each competition. You will NOT be able to register at the venue for the International Open, the Micro Tab or the Jurassik (veteran) Open
