Paul ROMAIN
Team competition
Only 20 years old, Paul Romain is a young outdoor photographer who grew up in the Chamonix Mont-Blanc valley. That's where he started mountaineering, paragliding, and extreme sports.
Based in the heart of the highest mountains in France, it is in his backyard that he enjoys all these sports on a daily basis. From mountaineering to paragliding, freeride skiing, climbing.
A true Swiss Army knife of high mountains, Paul specialized in ice climbing while growing up: from international competitions to the most difficult faces of the Mont-Blanc massif: he's seen them all.
Mountaineer, Pilot, Photographer, Influencer.
Paul also loves images. He brings his camera in extremely risky places. This is what led him to be followed by thousands of people, especially on Instragram.
He recently created Mountain Media House, which he is developing as a communication and audiovisual production agency.
How long have you been flying?
I started paragliding on my 18th birthday, it was my birthday present. I started with an week-long class and then I never stopped. Now I try to train every day for my future projects.
Your harness?
I really like the Kliff 2 for para-mountaineering combinations. The minimal space requirement and its weight made me choose this harness. Otherwise for everything else I like the Kolibri which corresponds to what I'm looking for in terms of lightness and comfort
Why Kortel Design?
I don't really have a very clear answer. I think it came naturally with their excellent workmanship and their philosophy. This corresponds to my expectations 100%.
Your best flight?
Taking off from the Fletschhorn, probably my most beautiful flight but also my most stressful, it is in these moments that you feel very small. Souvenir shared with a member of the Team: Remi.
Any plans?
Many projects with my paraglider that are maturing, para-alpinism combinations that for the moment remain in a corner of my head.
