“This partnership with CEC is a great milestone for Rock Digital Marketing, for myself, and for Canada’s competitive climbing community” expressed Kiley Whittal, co-founder of Rock Digital.

“Aiding in the growth and development of climbing in Canada is our core focus at Rock Digital, and our main reason for starting” added Philip Quade, co-founder of Rock Digital. “ Having served as a freelance photographer in the competitive climbing circuit for over 7 years, I have seen the many trials and roadblocks our community members face regularly. I look forward to having a greater opportunity to effect positive change for the future of Canada’s competitive climbing culture, both at home and on the global stage.”

The benefits of this new partnership are multiple, including:

  • Heightened exposure for Canadian athletes on the global stage
