Defending Champions – Stevie Addison

Stevie Addison is no stranger to dry tooling.

Any big trips during this year?

Not really went to Italy and Switzerland at the start of the year for the Ice world Cup!!

Did your indoor tooling last year spur you to any outdoor routes?

I really wanted to do Too Fast Too Furious but had no time to get down to try it.

Have you done any specific training for the comps?

Just in my shed doing laps on wooden blocks

Sum up your experience of winning the series last year in one sentence!

Amazing and totally psyched me on for this years comp

Stevie you competed in the ICE world cup in 2008 and 2009 what did you take from the ice world cup experience?

That I need to work on climbing in crampons and practice climbing really long moves on bad holds and on ice.

The experience was great in both Val Daone and Saas-Fee with so many top climbers from around the world.
