CLIMBING NEVER DIE | Matt Groom, Danyil Boldyrev, Ksenia Zakharova & more
Climbing journalist Matt Groom journeys deep into war-torn Ukraine to discover a community held together by climbing and patriotism, but indelibly changed by war.
Matt Groom…..you might have heard his name before. He’s THE commentator of all the IFSC international boulder-and climbing competitions. Star of his documentary is Kseniia Zakharova, the Ukrainian national youth team climber. Kseniia will be present in the gym for a Q&A and to tell you all about what happened ever since that documentary. She can also be booked for private training sessions during the weekend, more information about this will soon be published.
As 22 September is our 12th anniversary and we like to treat a good cause. This year the Ukrainian climbing gym Vertykal in Charkov will benefit of all entree fees of the RR18 showing. All costs involved in showing the RR18, incl the renting of extra chairs etc will be covered by us. All entrance fees will go to Vertykal 100%. Same deal for the private training sessions with Kseniia.
So, its win win! You get to see 4 great films, can have your selfie with Kseniia and/or a private training session whilst donating to a good cause!
Information about ticket sale will be published asap. A ticket will be €18 in the online pre sale and €20 at the door (if there are any left on the evening). There’s room for 100p and that might seem much, but listening to your enthusiastic and positive responses to the promo board in the gym those tickets might be sold in a blink of an eye. Keep that eye therefore on our socials!
