Buster Martin on Ben Moon and Hubble

Buster Martin burst onto the UK climbing scene as a 16 year old by climbing Bat Route, a famous 14b at Malham. And even though he took a break from climbing, he didn’t fizzle out entirely like many prodigies tend to do. Instead, he came back with a vengeance by climbing BOTH Hubble and Action Directe, becoming only the 2nd person to clip chains on both of these testpieces.

Buster joins Kris to discuss Raven Tor and Hubble, trading texts with Ben while working them, the debates around Hubble, why history matters, and of course, what Ben Moon means to the British climbing scene.
