Chris Geisler, an avid climber in all forms of the sport, is also a furniture designer and artist.

His imagination and innovation, based on a science-oriented past, have been instrumental in the design and construction of Brad's climbing rig. Chris has also applied an analytical approach to the rope systems for Brad's ascents, focusing on safety and adaptability for unforeseen events. Countless days spent bigwall climbing have leant him a keen sense of how to move efficiently up on the wall. Based in Vancouver, BC, when Chris isn't trapped in his workshop, he can be seen on his single speed bicycle heading off to hear alternative music, or climbing in Squamish with his wife Robyn.

Chris getting Brad around a roof on the Grand Wall..
Chris answering why Brad is "climbing", and is a valid form of assent.
Chris can't keep a straight face while being interviewed... even more hilarious if you know him personally.
