2026 – 2028 · A three-expedition arc

The road to
Antarctica.

A deliberate progression in difficulty, stakes, and story — each expedition builds on the last. Svalbard proved it. Greenland earns it. Antarctica is the payoff. Greenland is the expedition this sponsorship supports: departs 25 April 2027.

Why this story matters

More extreme
than any Ironman.

5,900 calories burned a day. 560 kilometres self-supported across the Greenland ice cap. A three-year narrative arc that builds audience and sponsor value over time — partners joining at Greenland are in early, before the South Pole expedition drives peak attention.

Svalbard — proof of concept

A six-day pulking expedition in the Arctic. Aerial and ground footage captured; physiological demands documented; media and speaking experience already in place. This isn't manufactured adventure tourism — it's a self-funded operator proving the thesis before asking anyone else to back it.

Crossing the Greenland ice cap

A 560-kilometre ski crossing of the Greenland ice cap, self-supported, departing 25 April 2027. This is the expedition sponsors are backing — a twelve-month campaign running from signing, through preparation and the crossing itself, to final content delivery sixty days after return.

South Pole & Mount Vinson

A ski to the geographic South Pole, followed by an ascent of Mount Vinson — Antarctica's highest peak. Greenland is the beginning, not the destination. Partners who join at Greenland are investing in a three-year arc that culminates here, with a significant step up in scale, media interest, and audience reach.
