Valery Rozov said: “Jumping from Cho Oyu has been one of my life-long ambitions and being able toachieve this goal as part of the #FXTMbasejump project is a fantastic feeling. The mountain itself is extremely impressive and challenging, but neverthelesshaving the opportunity to climb it and to BASE jump from there was a great experience.”
Discussing the partnership with FXTM, Rozov said:“FXTM has been a great partner from the outset of this project, right up to the final jump at Cho Oyu.We both share the same drive for offering the inspiration needed to push the limits, and together our goals were achieved with the Cho Oyu jump.
