As BD Athlete Babsi Zangerl explains, “the balance in life is really important.
For her and her partner Jacopo Larcher, their lives are usually in constant motion. From big walls to desert splitters, the Eiger to the Rätikon, Babsi and Jacopo spend most of their time on the road, traveling from one destination to the other.But what we don’t see from the outside looking in, is the place they call home, and more importantly, how they fuel the motivation to keep pushing for new and harder objectives.During the winter months, their home is in Voralberg, Austria. That’s where the real work is done.“It’s the time of the year to really start training,” says Babsi. “After all these big walls and all these long climbs, the time of the year we get back in shape for us is definitely the wintertime.”
