Vladek Zumr teams up with 8a

Born in Liberec, Czech Republic, and currently living in Zürich, Switzerland, Vladek Zumr - Insta made his passions climbing and photographing to his profession. The climbing coach and self-employed photographer was part of the last IFSC Bouldering World Cup of this year in Munich, which was an intense time for him, as so many strong athletes were competing. Vladek took some amazing shots of the worlds strongest climbers such as Akiyo Noguchi, see below. The next few months are going to be very busy for Vladek. In September, he will travel to Innsbruck for the IFSC Climbing World Championship and to Stuttgart, for the Adidas Rockstars event. Finally, he would like to join again the La Sportiva Legends Only competition, taking place in Stockholm in November. 8a will publish some of his best pictures during these events. He recently started collaborating with the overall bouldering world cup winner of 2018 and one of the best climbers in the world in all climbing styles, Jernej Kruder - see picture, with whom he will be working between the competitions on some outdoor photo projects and trying to choose the best partner from all the sponsorship offers, after his over all world cup victory.
