Awesome - had the chance to see him speak on biomechanics, fascinating and with some real serious roots in climbing. Glad to see such important work recognized.

Don't know Hugh personally, but he took a tragedy and turned it into a positive. That takes guts and inspiration.

I am proud to have done some climbing with Hugh both before and after his accident and equally proud of the work that he has done since to get others back on their feet.


Hugh at sixteen after we sent Astroman in an afternoon.
