The format is based on teamwork: while one member of the pair climbs, the other offers advice. Each team has a limited amount of time to complete the boulder problem; failure to do so means elimination. Qualified amateur teams then face the same conditions as in the arena for the finals.

The sporting spectacle is accompanied by staging and activities tied to climbing culture. The format thus brings amateur and professional climbing closer together at an event dedicated to bouldering.
