Is pro climbing a meritocracy? What does it really mean when someone says they’re a pro climber? Can you pay your rent with free shoes? And what are the job requirements for pro climbers today, beyond saving the world, being your own creative agency and social media management house, and, oh yeah, maybe sending the gnar once in a while? We dive into a world that isn’t as glamorous as it looks on the gram.
In our main bit, we sit down with Lucas Roman to talk about his new book Aperture Alike, a collection of stories of interesting people pursuing passion and adventure, including the late Brad Gobright.
Last but not least, get ready to break some gear with Kolin Powick at Black Diamond.
