LEAP Crew Ranks

Ranks

LEAP ranks recognize how deeply someone has become part of the Sailing Frog's Leap crew. Your current LEAP balance determines your rank. What you actually did along the way is recorded separately through badges and recognition.

The crew ladder

Five rank levels create progression without turning LEAP into a complicated game.

1–4 LEAP

Deckhand

“I’m officially part of the crew.”

What it means

Deckhand is the first Sailing Frog's Leap crew rank—the moment a viewer crosses the line from audience to crew. One LEAP is enough to say: I showed up, I joined, and I'm aboard.

5–9 LEAP

Bosun

“I’m not just aboard. I keep showing up.”

🪢

What it means

A Bosun is becoming a familiar hand—someone who keeps showing up, participating, helping, and becoming part of the fabric of the crew.

10–24 LEAP

Quartermaster

“I have history here, and my voice matters.”

🧭

What it means

Quartermaster represents an established supporter with a recognizable history in the community. Useful participation matters more than simply being loud or constantly online.

25–50 LEAP

First Mate

“I’m part of the inner crew.”

What it means

First Mate is an inner-crew rank for members whose long-term participation and repeated contributions have built a meaningful history with the community.

51+ LEAP

Master of the Leap

“I’ve become part of the history of this community.”

🐸

What it means

Master of the Leap is the highest crew rank. At 51+ LEAP, the emphasis shifts away from chasing another title and toward the history the member continues to build.

Three rules keep the rank system honest

These three rules keep the ladder clear and useful.

Rule one

Rank follows current holdings

Your current LEAP balance determines your current rank. If the balance changes, the rank can change too.

Rule two

Badges preserve history

Rank can change. Badges preserve the meaningful moments and contributions that happened along the way.

Rule three

Participation beats noise

LEAP should recognize useful involvement—not simply whoever posts most often.
