Another New Climbing Magazine

PlanetFear is reporting that a new climbing magazine is soon to be launched. This is not the magazine to come from the amalgamation of High Mountain Sports and On The Edge, but a completely new magazine produced by Bob Elliot. The new mag will be called Friction and the first issue is set for December this year.

If it's going to be called called Friction, I guess it will be manly of interest to Grit Boulderers, sandstone devotees and sport climbers. Good market research done there I think for a wide audience that's already fed up with mags full of similar stuff.

sounds like its perfectly marketed to me, Bouldering is a trendy subsport.

cool, hope it has more UK bouldering in it and training tips. will definetely give it a try for a few months - its about time we had a fresh new magazine.

For what it's worth I think it is a great name, plus the domain is still up for grabs - www.friction.co.uk The thought of producing a new climbing magazine without an integral web site does surprise me though. It looks like Greenshire are going to make that mistake as well with their new mag.
