5 QUESTIONS FOR DAVIDE
1. What's your biggest f**k up in your climbing life?
Mmmm I think climbing high boulders with delicate exits without trying the exit first, alone and with few crash pads.
2. If you could pick anyone from the climbing history or the present climbers, who would you love to go climb with and why?
I'd say Nalle Hukkataival and Daniel Woods because watching their videos made me passionate about climbing, and well, they're incredibly strong.
3. What is your dream line?
I have many lines that I love but if I have to choose one perhaps Dreamtime in Cresciano, for how much it struck me when I saw it the first time and because it is a piece of boldering history.
4. What's your favourite part of being in the Rafiki team?
I really like the friendly approach you have, your availability and well, the products are really well done.
5. What's your advice for the climbers of all levels?
Have fun, work hard, but don't put too much pressure on yourself. The results will come, everything comes in its own time!
