Wall
A 32-foot rock-climbing wall stood in front of the contenders in this event. The object was to make it to the top. Again, two formats were used.
Season 1: Each kid had 90 seconds to climb the wall, 2 at a time. The wall was colored into zones, a different zone got the contender more points (Green 0, Blue 5, Pink 10, Purple 15, Red 20). As in AG, 10 points were awarded to the contender who could get to the top first, the second player up got five, for a possible score of 55 or 60 points. If a contender fell, they could start back up, but lost all points earned.
Season 2: Similar to season 1, but only 2 climbed the wall instead of all 4, the zones were numbered, and a 5 point bonus could be earned for correctly matching some sort of trivia-of-the-day after achieving each new zone.
