Rok S.: To take an ice axe with you or not is no longer a question. It is far from an ice climbing tool, but it solves the pitfalls that steeper icy slopes bring with it. My must-have companion for ski touring. So small and light that it is always in my ski touring backpack.

Rok is the founder of Kibuba. He has been spending weekends in the mountains since before he was born, as he was born into a mountaineering family. In winter, he prefers to be on ski touring, far from the crowds. In summer, he catches the wind on well-ventilated beaches or seeks solitude on poorly traveled trails. But in his mind, he is always on the next plane that will take him to some remote place. He also persistently drags his three children with him. Since he is professionally involved in the selection of mountaineering equipment, in his closets and garages you will find a lot of equipment that falls into the "because you value yourself" category and an irrationally (too) large selection of (too) wide skis.
Because shoes that follow the barefoot philosophy have saved him from ankle and knee pain and extended his mountaineering exploits, he is a big fan and "prophet" of this trend.1
