Hey guys, I was just wondering what sport climb grading system is being used in the app? I need to be able to compare it to the ewbank system (Australia) in order to add climbs but I’m not familiar with (for example) f6a+.
We’re using the french system at the moment, though we are building a grade converter to allow you to select which grading system you prefer. For reference, this should help you out:

There’s a free iPhone app that allows you to convert from the YDS scale (USA) to most others, including the Ewbank and British grading systems.
