What made you choose to join ASCENT?

I wish to create a space to share and grow my interest in climbing and hiking with others.

If you could have any superpower for a day, what would you choose and how would you use it?
I would definitely go with flight. The idea of unrestricted travel is a dream, but for one day I'd definitely spend it going to as many new places as I could.

What's your favourite board game or video game, and what makes it so enjoyable for you?
Monster Hunter (as a series), would be up there, I generally like the difficulty of the game, and the sense of progress you get once beating a tricky monster.

If you could be any fictional character for a day, who would you choose and why?
If I were to be any fictional character, I would be Spider-Man, as I think the feeling of swinging though the air effortlessly would be exhilarating - and a fun form of transport.

What's a song that gets you enthusiastic?
"I THINK" by Tyler, The Creator never fails to make me want to get up and dance. I think its to do with the high energy mixed with percussion and electric piano that gets me.
 

Favourite colour?
Orange, as it's loud & bold - Yes, I had a hand in ASCENT's logo.
 

If you could instantly learn a new skill, what would it be?
Skiing. I've recently had a notion to try out skiing but it seems difficult from an outsiders perspective.
