JC Dubeau
JC has been a general menace since the age of two when he first climbed over the second story balcony railing at his home to see what was on the other side. His parents have been concerned ever since. Since then, he has had a need to push the limits of what he and his gear are capable of.
He began rock climbing in high school shortly after an outdoor club trip when a friend invited him to go climbing for a weekend. In university, the fourth edition of Freedom of the Hills became his go to reading material after discovering ice climbing.
Shortly after university, he made the move out west, to Alberta, to pursue his dreams of climbing, skiing and biking. He worked in the IT industry for a short period of time before a full lifestyle change brought him to working in outdoor gear shops and bike shops where he could share his knowledge and stoke with people to get out to do rad adventures.
