Competition tasks 2002
 
Rope-race-course    sketch
The first belay was 10 m. high on a tree, from where a slanting rope was leading on a rock- wall. If a climber clipped the short tail to the belay, fitted both ascenders on the rope, than it was impossible to clip-off the short tail.
From there more re-anchors led to the deep-sag Tyrolienne traverse made of two ropes. Just in front the competition the jury decided to install a help-rope to the traverse belay, to help rappel down the beginning of the traverse. There were high punish-scores for missing (not using) the second rope of the traverse.
There was a long deviation on the last rappel-rope. Nearly all competitors lost scores because they do not save the deviation rope (with personal tail) during the clipping up its karabiner.
There was only few second's difference between the first four groups, but because the punishing lost-scores for faults, it was practically impossible to compete with quietly but clearly climbing competitors.
Rappel down through a knot with covered eyes
The team competitors after the perfect blinding started to rappel at the same time on parallel ropes.  It seemed to be very simple to complete this task, but some competitors decided to make the process easier but less safe, what was rewarded with punishing loss-scores.
Climbing up and rappelling down a rope led through a pulley
A piece of rope was hanging trough a pulley (high about 6 m.) with both ends on the field. The competitor couple was clipped to each other by short tail. Then they started a mechanical climb, each one end of the rope. After reaching the pulley, they changed on descender and rappel down to the field. The stop-watch was pushed when the last one clipped of his descender.
Funny knotting 
Both competitors had to fit one end of a 10 m long rope on own body with bulin safety knot (used years ago to fit a climber on the rope end). Each on one end.
Then started the task. They had to make a regular threaded figure-of-eight knot around the nearest tree. The second knot was a clove hitch knot.
We were laughing as never.
Cave-run
Started with rope rappel (8 x re-fractioned, in some places quite narrow) till the Old bottom in - 105 m. where the 2. Control stand was present. Then they had to climb 55 m. to the 1. Control stand on - 60m. (It was possible to climb a rope, but it was faster and more effective to use a rope secured free- climb). From - 60 m they used a 2 x re-fractioned rope-rappel again to the 2. Control stand and used an other way (quite narrow) to get in TG chamber where the 3. Control stand was in - 115 m. with coffee or tea and some glucose-sugar bonbons. A rope led to the chamber below Farebny dom, but the space was aslant and liquid mud was everywhere. A little free-climb and than through a boulder-shock on Farebny dom they got on the beginning of a 25 m. long quite uncomfortable slanting rope traverse (usually exhausting the last power off the body). 25 m. slanting and 40 m. free-space rope-climb finished the cave-run task.
Mini-rescue
The last task was a mini-rescue. A "mini-rescue" meaning that the participants had to perform a 'pick-off' of a stranded climber, bringing him/her safely down to the ground. This task was done by both members of the team and the scoring was calculated from the time of both members of the team.
Most of the competitors finished this task with very well trained and effective movements, and very fast. Some lost a step, what means seconds late. Some used complicated method with a contra-weight pulley, taking minutes.
