Gearing up for NBS 2010

2009 collage2009 collage

The NBS works as a series because of many people and organisations. The New Zealand Alpine Club supports the series through the activities coordinator and a grant. David Addison, Scott Millar, Guillaume Charton and Sefton Priestly are the local organisers who put lots of sweat and planning into the competitions, food, drinks, logistics etc.

Problem setters David Addison, Guillaume Charton, Dave Bolger, Dave McKinney, Ivan Vostinar, Matt Pierson and Nick Hanafin spend days setting up fun problems to challenge the strongest competitors as well as giving the novices fun at their level.

The many participants make it all worthwhile when they work hard, give it their best and come away with new skills, friends and tired arms. The people who support the competitors and participants, bring them to events and cheer them on.

Our financial supporters include Mark at Tools of the Adventure, Kate at Marvelox (La Sportiva and Metolius),  Andrew at Bivouac Outdoor, Liz at Chalkydigits and Rob at Cactus. Please support our sponsors, visit their websites (linked on our sponsors page) and if you have the chance, purchase some of their quality products.

The series is shaping up to be the best ever, so see you there!
