The great crossing
Stefan Fritsche (2014)
The quartet with Tamara and Hansjörg Lunger and the two Austrian camermen Matthias Aberer and Stefan Fritsche will be crossing the Braldu glacier in Pakistan with pulke sleds from 31 March 2013. At the beginning the feat seemed to be completely unsuccessful, as large crevasses and huge seracs set them on the way making even just approaching the mountains almost impossible. Nevertheless, on April 10, the group managed to acclimatize by climbing a mountain (5619m) in the Braldu area.Stefan Fritsche, Matthias Aberer

Das Brento Base Project
Matthias Aberer (2011)
Paul Kupsa has always loved testing himself, pushing himself beyond his limits using peaks and rock faces. In 'Brento Base Project' he exploits the steepness of the 1100 metre face of Monte Brento, north of Lake Garda, with the scope of exploring a new form of climbing – Base Soloing. By bringing together free climbing without safety ropes and base jumping, he discovers total freedom of movement. Kupsa climbs until he falls... but falling is not a mistake, it’s a possibility!- 2011
