Mammut's #Project360 Conquers Mount Everest

Mammut has added the southern classical route up to the top of Mount Everest to their #Project 360. Go to Mammut 360 website. "A small group of four Sherpas attended to the honourable task to bring the Everest into the living rooms of the fans of alpine sports by these three-dimensional recordings. Likewise, it is an homage to the first climbers Edmund Hillary and Tensing Norgay who have already chosen this route in 1953. A customized backpack with altogether six cameras facilitates the perfect omnidirectional view. Via mouse click and in pin-sharp quality the virtual climber experiences the challenging climbing passages: He conquers par example the crevasses of the Khumbu Icefall, climbs the Hillary Step, a twelve meters high and steep cliff edge, which represents the final obstacle before he reaches the summit. The reward is the view from highest point on earth โ€“ the choice of the different perspective is always up to the viewer. The recordings are also provided via app.

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
