THE REMSBOARD – Collaboration with Emma Yardley

Freestone Equipment has collaborated with  Emma Yardley  artist, teacher and consummate tailgate chef and mixologist to create a RemsBoard that you will be proud to hang in your favorite room in the house. The original art has been faithfully and durably reproduced on a RemsBoard using a UV printing technique and then protected with a layer of water based urethane and is available in limited quantities.

For Emma climbing and art have always been a part of her life, along with her very cool father.

“For me climbing has always been a way to slow down the world and remember to breathe. My art does the same for me. If I forget to breathe and tense a line for crooked as I would fall climbing. This collaboration meant a lot to me because of that connection of climbing and art but also the super power training this board gives. When I was 13 I remember leading my dad up my first multi pitch and I felt like a super hero because I could place gear where I wanted and climb up a rock without leaving a trace when we left. The knowledge passed down to me from Don Mellor and my dad Nick Yardley is my super power because I can safely hang in then what once was impossible vertical zone. For those who don’t have a Don or Nick, this is their tool to hanging in the vertical and I’m so happy my lines get to be there for a moment.”

Stay safe and gain the knowledge, skill, and speed to climb outdoors with confidence. No single tool can replace in person training and education. Seek out experts to help you refine your skills, learn new ones and understand how to apply your skills.
