DECISIONS

FILM
Freeride world champion Nadine Wallner is known as a brave outstanding skier. As some might know Nadine has also recently developed a passion for climbing. She is currently working on a project only elite of climbers have achieved so far: climbing the “Bürser Platte” with the surface characteristics of woodchip wallpaper. Beat Kammerlander did the first ascend of this route only using portable protection devices, highlighting the „Bürser Platte“ to other international top climbers. In addition to outstanding skills you also need nerves of steel for this project. It’s difficult to place the protection gear on a smooth wall like this. Nadine opens up on the coexistence of skiing and climbing in her life. She says that lately she has to decide more and more between the two of them: “They are fundamentally different sports, but they also have a lot in common. That became clear to me on the „Bürser Platte“. I’m a climber now, but I’ll always remain a skier at heart.
