National Hero: Shauna Coxsey

CLIENT: RED BULL

DIRECTOR: MATT BIRD

PHOTOGRAPHY: NEIL SHEARER PHOTOGRAPHY

FLAG CONSTRUCTION: ENIGMA CLIMBING PRODUCTS

VENUE: CLIMBING WORKS

We were hired by Red Bull to create and shoot the classic flag shoot with a twist to commemorate Shauna Coxsey being selected as the first British climber to represent Team GB at the Tokyo Games. We worked closely with Rob Napier at Enigma Climbing Products to design and create the British Flag out of wooden volumes which Shauna could then climb on as we carried out the shoot.

Shot at the iconic Sheffield Climbing Venue, the Climbing Works alongside long time BOB collaborator, photographer Neil Shearer the shoot with Shauna was a blast, especially as we explored what routes we could create on the volumes after!
