Ben Moon is back in the headlines again after his recent repeat of Rainshadow (9a) (9a) at Malham Cove. This was Ben’s second career 9a and came an incredible 25 years after Hubble (9a) which is now widely accepted as the world’s first 9a route.

On recommendation from other climbers Ben found himself testing some Boreal shoes late last year and got on rather well with them, in particular the new Boreal Lynx which he used at Malham for Rainshadow.

Boreal are pleased to announce that Ben has just joined the Boreal climbing team for the second time in his career. U.K. Boreal sales rep Mike Pickwell commented: “Ben is one of the most famous and widely respected climbers in the world, we’re very much looking forward to working with Ben again, both as a top climber and brand ambassador”.

It's 25 years since Ben climbed Hubble, but in that time he only appears to have aged about 10 years!

50% of people to have climbed Rainshadow have done so in Boreals, twice as many as any other boot manufacturer :)

You should see some of my relatives, Ben isn't doing too badly I think...he's got most of it left still.
