LONG TERM CLIMBING GOALS:

Would be great to continue collaborating with them contributing to improve their visibility and Image throughout my personality and my WAY of climbing.
LONG TERM PERSONAL GOALS:

-Get a house, a wife and a garden J
Favorite Climbing Areas:
Saint-Léger du Ventoux (Fra), Venasque (Fra), Blue Mountains (Australia), Hueco (USA), Rock Land (South Africa), Fontainebleau.
Best day of climbing:
Hard question since I always go climbing when I want and have fun …!!
For sure I do have some great souvenir like those days with my girlfriend (being on a multipitches root with this magic scenic view of Thailand with Tonsai and the islands around) or intensively climbing in Fontainebleau (8 hours in a raw) with my best friends without feeling tired…..
Your favorite climb:
“Miséricorde”, Fontainebleau.
List at least 5 reasons why you like Sterling Rope
1: Because I met Paul Niland, and he is a nice guy!
2: Because it’s not so famous in France, and I would love to contribute to make it more visible and famous in this market and even in Europe (be an actor to help or improve its implementation)
3: Because I had a Sterling Rope rope (some pics here), for my trip around the World 2008 that I did with my girlfriend and I really found it was a good rope that resisted to all conditions that we had.
4: Because while using Sterling Rope when working on difficult access I could pretend bringing you some more “product visibility” in this field as well (this area is known for “consuming”a lot of rope)
5: Because it s known for being good and reliable quality, because Sterling rope values talks to me and how could I dislike it? J
