ADAM KARPIERZ

If I was a character from the movie Ameila, the narrator would present me this way: ‘This skinny guy is Adam. He’s colour blind. He’s been climbing more than half of his life. He likes peeling pomegranates, change gears in the car and lie on the floor after a hard workout. He doesn’t like blunt knives, getting socks for birthday or when a dishwasher leaves some dirt on the dishes.’ My life revolves around climbing. I’m a routesetter (I set up routes/ boulders), I give classes, I study at University of Physical Education and I read a lot about climbing. I love doing my best and doing things well. I usually spend 4-5 hours a day training. I like challenges and variety and I want to be as versatile as possible. However, I’m mainly focused on the rocks abroad. As every climber who thinks about the future, I’ve been doing some work to switch the industry and become a programmer ;)
