J.M

B.S - My most memorable achievements (which involve epics, near bad falls, bad conditions, being with my friends, etc.) would be boring to anyone but me. I guess my most famous routes would be all those routes in the Hellcave, first ascents of Super Tweak 14b, Ice Cream 14c, The Route of all Evil 14a, Jack Horner V11, Jumper V9 (because it's in a video) I don't know ... doesn't sound too impressive does it? Maybe I should've done more, could've made the big bucks like you guys.

J.M - What inspires you for the future (apart from me and Ben)?

BS - A 2 handicap. And that's my bouldering handicap (based on the fact that I'm consistently 2 grades below whatever you and Ben are doing). I'd love to get my golf game into single digits. I can't wait to get to England just to play golf. The gritstone's all right too.

J.M - You've been very successful with Pusher, you have some great products and a really cool image- how did it all start and where is it going?

B.S - We're in negotiation to buy AOL/Time Warner, which will make us the largest company in the World.. and of course the richest humans alive. Seriously, we earned our reputation by making holds that nobody could hold onto and provided a reason for people to try harder and to laugh at themselves and their friends when they go climbing indoors. It sounds cliché but we make products that we want to use, and luckily, others want to use them too. We'll continue adding products to our line in the same way. Owning a small business is very exciting, sorta like running it out on little wires.

J.M - What aspects of working for Pusher do you like most?

BS - First, I'm in business with my best friends. Mike Call and I are from different generation than guys running other climbing companies. I like the fact that we're able to help the sport grow in new directions based mainly around bouldering indoors and outdoors. I see young, core companies like Pusher, S7 and Cordless having a significant impact on climbing in general over the next few years.
