Alex Huber on Pan Aroma
The nature of the rock is something unique. As soon as you start changing it, it's shit. My understanding of climbing is to see a natural obstacle, just take on the challenge and climb it. If you fail to do it - try again, try to get better or leave it for others |

Andrej Grmovsek on free ascent of Camilotto-Pellesier on Cima Grande
North walls contain many, many hard routes, once the hardest aid and today the hardest free routes of the Alps, and on those walls the history of rock wall climbing was written in the last century. So the Tre Cime are special, but they are also hard - a lot of loose and damp rock, cold temperatures. |

Bernd Zangerl: Why Bouldering
It’s the BEST. It’s about power, it’s about focus... You can force your body to the limit. You can try the hardest possible moves... And it’s the fun of bouldering, hanging around with people I like, travelling to areas I want to see, trying projects which I am interested in, drinking cappuccino and talking about the only important thing. |

Exploring new routes or making first ascents ever is not very popular among women-climbers... However Daila is the exception that proves the rule. |

Dave Graham
It’s either a benchmark of a 9a route or an 8c+ route […] The question of grade now would be an interesting one, because if Action Direct is the first 8c+ done, then everything else in the world would change - everything. |

David Lama
I think you have to listen to your body! If anyone says: that´s the best endurance training - he´s wrong; it´s the best for him, and that doesn´t mean that´s the best for me! |

David Lama on a Malaysian Trip
We didn´t really know what to expect from this trip. In the end we found a paradise for every climber. There are so many incredible rocks that you can’t climb them in your whole life! It was really unbelievable and we had to decide very well which of the walls we are gonna bolt and which we´ll leave for others, who will hopefully climb them soon. |
