Andy Nicholson - Instructor |
Email: none
Andy has been climbing on and off since the late 70s with some noteable ascents to his name. Until 2007 Andy was a PE teacher with boundless energy and enthusiasm - qualities Andy brought with him when he joined the Pinnacle Challenge crew for some casual work. He has ended up on nearly every recent event. He started managing Redpoint Climbing Centre when it opened in Spring 2008 but still works with us on the majority of events. Andy's aim is to climb f8a by the time he is 50... FAIR PLAY! He holds SPA and is the most competitive dragon boat helm on the team. |
