Your favorite Trick into the BAGJUMP™?
So, far I’ve been concentrating on the climbing and not so much on the landing, I guess I should start uping the ante on dismounts ;).
Next Trick you want to learn?
A 180 dyno, why not?
How did BAGJUMP™ help on your Tricks?
It’s all about the surface and the cush landing!
What do you like most about BAGJUMP™ practice?
You can lay it out when you fall!
What is the best way to learn new Tricks?
It’s all in the hips! Kinda like golf I reckon. That, and strapping it on and going big!
How many injuries did you have in your career?
Too many, but luckily nothing super critical. Dislocated fingers, tendonitis, knee problems etc…
Explain how BAGJUMP™ can help to prevent major injuries?
BAGJUMP™, offers the possibility to go high on lines sans rope, were the consequence of such actions would otherwise be life threatening.
What are your plans for this season?
At the moment I’m organizing a Euro filmtour for Chuck Fryberger’s new film Pure. Once that’s wrapped up, I wouldn’t mind making it back to South Africa and maybe a trip to South America.
