The Circuit review

Peter Beal has made a review of the first issue of The Circuit a new print magazine produced by Eddie Fowke which can be ordered here. "I’ve always loved climbing magazines and in the early 90’s it was the only way to follow the competition circuit. Sadly even with growing participation and following worldwide there never seemed to be much content in the existing English Language magazines. It’d always be a paragraph or two at best. If you look at any other sport or activities they have specialist publications that act as aspirational and educational platforms, climbing magazines (again I only speak of English language ones) had never had this niche filled. I felt it was time to fill that niche and get some psyche out there!
